(CBS) NEW YORK It’s happened again, an elderly woman has been beaten over a lousy purse. This time, the victim is 95 years old.
Police on Monday were looking for a man they say beat and robbed the woman right outside her 17th floor apartment. The incident happened around 2:15 p.m. at the East River Co-op on the Lower East Side.
The victim’s friends are shocked by the attack.

I’m shocked.
Casablanca-style
<<< And, I am shocked, shocked, SHOCKED to find there is gambling going on at Rick’s cafe. Now where are MY winnings. ;-) >>>
I’m shocked that in the Pepuls Republik of Nu Yauk Titty that anyone would be surprised that the law of the jungle abounds. The strong take from the weak. Kill or be killed. Streets running with blood.
That’s the liberal paradise.
Even if you are the Good Samaritan passing one of these assaults, you have to have a death wish to become involved.
That’s where the War on Drugs and Gun Control gets you.
The war on drugs makes sick people turn to crime to afford their fix. And Gun Control disarms all the law abiding and turns them into victims.
Now visualize a Libertarian America. The drug addict would be able to buy their fix for modest sums. (Estimates say that MJ would be profitable at a penny a cigarette. Heroin would be akin to cough syrup; five bucks a bottle.) Charitable organizations would be offering drug treatment programs. Crime would be zero. Criminals would have to guess which victims were unarmed and do it in such a way that avoids a Good Samaritan. Criminals that guess wrong are “retired” from the business. We’d all be a lot better off and a lot safer.
So I’m shocked that more people don’t see that the meme of gooferment force just makes us all worse off.
Even a 95 year old can be trusted to defend themselves from the jackals in human form.
Just sprinkle a few sheep dogs among the sheep and crime will be very unprofitable. End the war on drugs and there’s no need for it either.
