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. The students were left bloodied and bruised as their attackers sneered and hurled insults at them.Richard Harbus Richard Harbus The bus that stops across the street from St. Catherine’s Academy.Richard Harbus 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.” Link |

White can tell us what the real cause of violence is in the underserved community. I have a feeling it's not white catholic school girls |

WEll, fight back. When the ones attacking you are bleeding out from numerous slashes and stab wounds they wont attack you anymore.
|
|
They should tell the city that they identify as Muslim. Get a new bus so fast the paint will still be wet.
|
|
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. |

They dont need a special bus. They need a Navy Seal bus driver armed to the teeth.
|
|
I'm very certain that there are many fat fuck MTA police on the payroll currently doing nothing who could make themselves useful riding those buses on the school's route.
Yes, it is "special treatment," and the girls deserve it. |

At most there will be a sit down at the school and maybe a picture of a group hug. |

When you cap them, leave the scene and contact the police. |

Let's see a bus load of young white Catholic school girls traveling through the ghetto....
Is it racist for them to want protection? |

If you send your kids to private school, you are responsible for their transportation. New Yorkers

There is probably a well trained bad ass sister just waiting for the chance to employ her skill that should accompany the girls.
Or, send a cab, that is the method here for bussing city kids to far off schools. Different color of money? What is the US subsidy to MTA? |

But I'll bet he was A-OK with the 101st Airborne protecting the "Little Rock Nine" when schools were forcibly integrated. That was done to protect those students from racial attacks. |

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. |

Ive got a better solution.
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. |
