Not Guilty Reckless Endangerment Resulting in Death
How many times do young black men have to die while engaged in the act of doing something really stupid and the blame is cast elsewhere?
The unfortunate death of Jordan Neely on a New York City subway was of his own making. After boarding the subway his prophetic statement that “Someone’s going to die today” came true. Was it because of being restrained by “good Samaritan” Daniel Penny or in part because of his unstable mental state coupled with drug use? We can only speculate. What is clear is that New Yorkers on that subway were fearful for their lives until someone stepped up to do something.
What is also clear is that racial undertones by the Black Lives Matter co-founder who called it a clear case of a white man getting away with murdering a black man and something must be done.
Isn’t that the same attitude that resulted in the death of Jordan Neely in the first place? I think so.
Where was BLM when Jordan Neely was placed on the list of 50 most dangerous homeless persons in New York City? Was BLM out there actively doing something to get this homeless man off the streets and into a treatment program or a job placement program or even some type of housing program?
If Black Lives really Matter to BLM then why is it that we never hear from them until AFTER a black life has been lost? And if BLACK lives matter then should not ALL lives matter too?
Stop playing the race card and do what was said at the family’s press conference – GO OUT AND HELP SOMEONE!
The parents of Jordan Neely are going through agony over what they call the murder of their son whom they loved and miss very much. Again where were they when Jordan needed them? They must have obviously known their son was on drugs, homeless and a danger to people on the streets. What did they do to change the course of Jordan’s path down the road of life?
How is going after Daniel Penny in a civil suit going to fix anything? Exactly how much is Jordan’s life really worth?
Where is the prosecutor Alvin Bragg or anyone from his staff after the trial reassuring the public that the trial was fair and weighed the evidence presented to them?
Where is Mayor Eric Adams of New York City calming and reassuring the public?
The death of Jordan Neely was most unfortunate, but could have been prevented, had those with intimate knowledge of the facts and people involved made effort to change the course of history before the incident ever happened.
