A group of Catholic schoolgirls is demanding that the city give them their own private MTA bus to ferry them to and from school after some classmates were attacked on a BX8 last month — but critics blasted the move as outrageous.

Proponents say the unprecedented perk is needed to keep the girls safe from neighborhood bullies.

Last month, four white St. Catharine’s Academy students said a group of black teens attacked them on the public Bronx bus on their way home from school.

The Catholic students were left bloodied and bruised as their attackers sneered, “What, do you have money? Go drink your coffee, white girl, and go shopping,” the girls said.

Cops are investigating the incident as a hate crime.

Many girls at the school are now scared to take the public bus, said state Assemblyman Michael Benedetto, who was one of five politicians to sign the letter sent to the MTA last week.

“If the children can’t be safe on an MTA bus, the MTA must provide some sort of service to make sure they are safe,” he said.

“When Michael Griffith was killed in Howard Beach, the MTA didn’t provide special transportation to black kids traveling through privileged white neighborhoods,’’ seethed civil-rights lawyer Keith White, referring to the innocent young black man beaten and fatally chased into traffic by a white mob of youths in 1986.

“So why would the MTA provide transportation to privileged white kids traveling through [black] communities?

“That is a quintessential hallmark of white privilege in America,’’ White added. “If the MTA is really considering approving this measure, it’s an indication of how tone deaf city government is to the real causes of violence in underserved community.”

“If the children can’t be safe on an MTA bus, the MTA must provide some sort of service to make sure they are safe,” said Theodoric of York, Medieval Race Baiter.

Their parents' votes for Red Billy DiBlasio, Fuck Barrack Hussein Obama, and Race Riots Hillary Clinton should be just as actionable as the lack of race police at the MTA. Maybe White (Black) Shaun King and Sane (Not Sane) Rachel Dolezal had something to do with it, too.

So, the "civil-rights lawyer" has to go back 30 years (to 1986) to find an example of White-on-Black violence on the MTA?

And that is the example the lawyer uses to support his retarded moral equivalency?

What a doofus!

I'm just shocked that they are investigating it as a hate crime.

As far as the special bus? Good for them for demanding it, sooner or later someone was going to. As stated earlier if they were muslim they'd get the bus so fast the paint would still be wet, but when white Christian girls ask for it they are mocked. Just another example of how certain demographics are treated differently.

I carried a Gerber MK I in my purse from the time I was sixteen until I was twenty-one and could legally own a handgun.  It was a gift from one of my father's friends, a WW II Marine get, who was kind enough to come to our house at least once a week for about eighteen months and beat the shit out of me give me instruction in its use in keeping with his philosophy that "Any plan of self defense that depends on you besting a grown man in a standup fight is doomed to failure.  So what we're going to do is teach you to kill that man before he knows he's in a fight."

I make no representation about the level of skill I attained, but I was mentally prepared and God's own enthusiastic.

Good plan.  I always maintained that a CCW is an exit strategy and that the first time your assailant should know you have a weapon is when they see your mussel flash. When you cap them, leave the scene and contact the police.

Actually they don't, MTA police don't cover buses at all. The only public transportation the MTA police cover in NYC is the LIRR, Metro-North, and the Staten Island Railway. Buses aren't their responsibility.

Im sure you have cops who ride the Bus's and Im sure you dont have enough to ride them all. Thats like basic urban Math.

Only a moron would blame the cops for this attack. That was my point as Im sure you know.

As well, in the ghetto girlie bus fights are like daily morning gymnastics. Those fake hair braids fly like pop corn and they are just a warm up for the class room sessions later in the day. Maybe a smart idea is to not let your kid take the bus and stop voting Democrat.

It would fall under NYPD's transit bureau but I never once saw a transit cop assigned to ride buses, they were always assigned to the subway in my area.

Charge and convict the attackers with a hate crime.  (IMO hate crimes are bullshit, a crime is a crime, but people want to play these divisive games, OK.  Equal protection under the law bitches)

Then have the guilty, aka their guardians pay for private livery service.   If they are wards of the state, great make that "village" that is raising them pay.
