They used to call parts of midtown Manhattan the "Minnesota Strip," because a lot of runaway girls from Minnesota were recruited by pimps for prostitution in this area because of their blonde hair and Scandinavian features.
I know this because years ago, when I was in college, I worked as a volunteer for Covenant House's "Under 21" group where kids under the age of 21, who needed a place to crash for the night, could stay at the facility and even get dinner and breakfast in the morning.
Sadly, the founder of Covenant House, Fr. Bruce Ritter, was forced to resign in 1990 due to sexual and financial misconduct, but the organization still survives to this day. He died of cancer in 1999 at the age of 72.
Now the area around Broadway and 40th Street has apparently become a shooting gallery for junkies who have the audacity to inject right out in public.
Like the rioters in our major cities, the junkies apparently have no fear or respect for the law. And who can blame them? Under the misdirection of America's Worst Mayor, Warren Wilhelm, Jr., [aka Bill de Blasio] it seems as if the orders given to the NYPD was to not get involved and look the other way.
The area is also being crapped up with used syringes in parks where children used to play before COVID-19 and violence became the rule of the day.
A local area worker who asked to be identified only as John Fenster Abernathy Joe Walker Jones III said, "They're all over the place. They're not bringing their best drugs; they're bringing heroin, they're bringing crack; and the cops are sitting on their thumbs."
He added that calling 311 was as useless as de Blasio.
One guy who works on construction said that the shooting up begins in the morning and it's usually the same junkies. They sleep there at night and sometimes ambulances arrive to help them cope with life's bitter turns.
An employee for a private garbage hauling company who only provided his first name said he’s worked in the area for about six years and the situation has gotten worse [around the time de Blasio became Mayor, in 2013].
Comrade de Blasio and NYPD officials did not offer a response to the media for some reason.
Consider following Brain Flushings, it's free and worth every penny. And remember, every time you click on an ad, an angel gets its wings and a liberal sheds a tear.
