Long Island City Tuesday afternoon linkage

hooray to the floating hospital…booo to the sex offender in the neighborhood.

That sex offender is no more dangerous than half the creepy men who hang out in strip clubs.

If you are really concerned about pervs in LIC, here’s the NY database:

PS78 sends letters to the parents every time a new sex offender registers in 11101. But you can always check on the website above. Just FYI, most of them in LIC live at the half-way house on Borden, near the entrance to the LIE. Not so much right in Hunters Point, though there are a few.

Most of the sex offenders that are there because they obviously can’t afford to go anywhere not that I give a rat’s ass. But, if they are kicked out because their presence is not to the liking of a few paranoid parents, that will NOT deter them from the area. Instead they will wander the streets sleeping on park benches at night where children play during the day. It’s better that someone can keep tabs on them at the shelter as opposed to them wandering the area aimlessly.

8, we’re pretty fortunate if all these monsters do is get drunk and whistle at women. Everyone who has wasted time on this site arguing over the petty soap operas of Blend, Lounge 47 and the other melodramas that have played out over the past couple of years needs to visit that link posted above and read a little about the people we have in our neighborhood.

“Live Like a Perv!” could be the new slogan for Hunters Point. We have a rogue’s gallery of first-degree rapists here, including a guy who is smiling in his mug shot and others who have spent just a few years in jail for their crimes.

If the CB and others in the neighborhood who want to go after liquor licenses they should go after those bodegas down on that end of Vernon esp. in from of that park. They clearly cater to the homeless crowd and there are often people milling about outside asking for change, etc. If a guy standing in front of a bar to smoke a cigarette justifies calling every branch of the city government down to do an investigation, this should certainly be a priority.

We’re a sophisticated community, but we draw the line at harmful fondling.

In all the time I’ve spent in LIC I have never heard of anyone being accosted by the homeless vets who hang out on the traffic island. Occasionally there has been one or two beggars in front of the grocery. The majority are homeless vets period with no opportunity.

“we’re pretty fortunate if all these monsters do is get drunk and whistle at women.”

Yeah, unless you’re a woman.

‘Don’t mind these registered sex offenders ladies, it could be worse, they could stop sexually harassing you and start on other peoples children’. Not that the registered sex offenders on that LIC list have any crimes against children, just mostly again women.

That’s why I pay top dollar to live in LIC.

Also, PS does anyone who posts her find weird ‘words to spell to make sure you’re not a spambot? To post this I had to spell ‘ potency closed-circuit’. Hmmmm

Yes #18, that’s some ice cold comfort.

Oh I’m sorry, turns out that these violent, emotionally-deficient men commit sexually violent crimes against children AND women. That so makes me feel better. No wonder the rents on Borden Ave are so cheap. Thank goodness for all the friendly stores on Vernon and Jackson. I like a neighborhood in which I can duck into any store and feel safe. That’s one of the reasons I’m so grateful for all my neighbors.
