July 8, 2020 --- The sidewalk in front of NYC City Hall Park, right next to City Hall and other government buildings, has become a camping ground for "protesters".

thm_News1_0001747.jpg

The "protesters" have reduced the quality of life for the vast majority of citizens. NYC City Hall can be seen through the trees, a few feet behind.

thm_News1_0001756.jpg

The entire sidewalk is covered with vulgar, anti society slogans, by multiple groups. They seem to only have a vague idea of what they actually want.

thm_News1_0001760.jpg

The socialist, anti-police group was permitted to paint their logo on the main street in front of the federal building, the state and federal court and the municipal building.

thm_News1_0001761.jpg

Even hourly rental motorcycles run the risk of being towed if parked in the wrong spot by the renter. A very expensive lessen indeed.

thm_news1_0015002.jpg
Many stores are still boarded up out of fear of further looting or vandalism.

thm_news1_0015007.jpg

"Welcome to Brooklyn, where New York Begins". Many years ago, the sign said "Brooklyn, the fourth largest city in America".

thm_news1_0015010.jpg

Houston Street and Mercer Street. Car somehow failed to make the turn, in the middle of the night. No one was injured. Just a mistake.

thm_news1_0015013.jpg

thm_news1_0001609.jpg

Occupy City Hall on July 4, 2020. It is hard to imagine that so many protestors or vagrants would be allowed to camp in front of City Hall, NYC.

thm_news1_0001611.jpg

As often the case with these rebels without a cause, the signs are vulgar, anti society and anti police.

thm_news1_0001615.jpg

Who voted for these people to represent the people of this city? If they succeeded, would we ever have justice or would we simply have complete chaos and anarchy?

thm_news1_0001602.jpg

As usual, the NYPD were completely professional and allowed the campers to continue their alleged "protest", though it is doubtful if any of them agree to what they are protesting.

thm_news1_0001600.jpg

Bank building in Greenpoint Brooklyn. Empty businesses and store fronts seem to continue to expand. A combination of the fear of the Corona Virus and social unrest, coupled with a general decline in jobs, caused by a variety of factors is destroying the economy and wealth of this country.

July 5th, 2020. July 4th, 2020 has been one of the deadliest Fourth of July holidays on record in New York City with 8 people murdered, and almost 50 people shot. Mayor DeBlasio has stated that part of this was because of the Corona Virus lockdown and economic problems related to the lockdown. Many others, including top NYPD brass feels that the Crimea is due to other factors including anti-police rhetoric, the release from jails of many convicts out of Corona virus concerns, the closing of the courts and also new restrictions placed upon the NYPD. Most people are amazed that 25 years of progress seems to have been destroyed in just a few weeks.

thm_news1_0015047.jpg

Unfortunately some people actually believe that the city would be better without police. As most people realize, police are essential in any society to keep order, maintain laws and freedoms and to assist people in dire need.

thm_news1_0015048.jpg
The "Pride" event with a large number of different perceived social issues being protested for or against.

thm_news1_0015049.jpg

Apparently the gentleman who was using the unused water fountain as his office has left or was evicted.

It is sad to see that the stores along beautiful Madison Avenue and Fifth Avenue are forced to cover their windows to protect themselves from looters and rioters.

UPDATE: June 2, 2020. The looting outrage continues. Even with the 11pm curfew, looting has continued throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn and other parts of New York City, with major businesses, such as flagship store of Macy's on 34 Street and 6th Avenue in Manhattan, as well as Target and many other stores being vandalized and looted. The police, trying their best, are simply overwhelmed and are restricted as to what measures that they can take. Most are now calling for the mounted patrol to be deployed as well as the deployment of the National Guard. ---Frank X. Didik

New York City protester resort to looting in Soho and other areas

On the night of May 31,2020, the protests against the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis broke out into wanton destruction and looting in the fashionable, artistic area of Manhattan of Soho. It was sheer pandemonium with the NYPD doing their best to control the situation, but they were overwhelmed by hordes of looters. Almost every store had widows smashed, and experienced some sort of looting. Elegant stores, such as Bloomingdales, Macy's, Coach, Best Buy, Louis Viton, Gucci and so many others were damaged, destroyed and looted. One man was shot, apparently by someone participating in the looting. All New Yorkers, regardless of their political positions, were and are outraged by this senseless destruction. It is very sad to walk through the lovely streets and see this. A complete tragedy for the city. Other areas, including in downtown Brooklyn, were also looted and destroyed. Below you can see the aftermath of this destruction on the afternoon of June 1, 2020. Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that a curfew will be in place for New York City from 11PM to 5AM and starting on June 2, the curfew will be from 8pm till 5am.

People continue to be forced to "social distance" and wait to go into "essential" stores, though there is not any scientific evidence that either social distancing or wearing a mask can possibly prevent a virus.

Corona Virus: What I have observed regarding the Corona Virus can be read here. Further, my photographs of empty New York City, can be viewed here.

Pentup Demand caused by Covid-19 lockdown? Unlikely. People are used to staying home, have developed new habits, and after being out of work, will probably want to save money.

Hysterical Fears pushed in the media and other sources: What ever happened to Y2K, the Ozone hole, nuclear winter, missile gap, read more

Restaurants and Bars will spring back? Very unlikely. People go to these places not only to eat and drink but primarily to socialize. If people are social distanced, why go out?

Corona Virus "Experts"? Who is to say who is an expert when the entire virus is a new event and nobody has any real understanding what is going on. This is like the transition period of Eastern Europe from 1989 to 1992, when so many "leading experts" came from nowhere and gave the public their speculation with truly disastrous results, causing massive inflation and economic failure in countries who followed their "advice".

Question If you can live for a thousand years, but have to live in a 12x12 foot (3x3 meter) room without ever leaving, would you do it? I prefer to live life to its fullest and accept the risks. Everything in life entails a certain risk.

Thoughts on science, business and society today
By Frank X. Didik - News1.net editor.

What if and what can or might be.


The 1956 Firebird was to be self driving.
Self Driving Cars? If you have an accident with a self driving car, who is at fault? The car manufacturer, the owner of the car or the occupant "driver" of the car? I have enjoyed owning and driving some of the most interesting cars made and have always enjoyed the freedom of driving without impediments or restrictions. Nevertheless, if self driving cars can help reduce accidents and enhance society, I am for them. Besides the technical aspects, there are many other issues that must be worked out. My concerns regarding self driving cars including liability, safety, morality and effectiveness. ...read more ...

Question: If people who are protesting are paid to protest, is it really a protest?

Question: If a humanitarian organization is paid for their services, are they really a humanitarian organization?

Question: If a charity receives most or all of its money from the government, is it really a charity considering that the tax payer is paying for their services?

Reason, Logic and intellect is not reliable. The late Christopher Hitchens often stated that we should rely on our logic, reason and intellect to determine the truth. Many people who pride themselves as educated, intelligent and progressive believe the same. As reasonable as this seems, Galileo proved over 400 years ago that our logic, reason and intellect is unreliable and that only direct experimental data, should be relied upon. Galileo had dropped two balls of the same material, but different masses, from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to demonstrate that they would hit the ground at the same time, rather than the heavier ball hitting the ground first, as almost everyone, including Aristotle, 2000 years ago, had assumed. Our logic, reason and intellect is not reliable and should only be viewed as speculation. Only direct experimentation and obtaining the same results, over and over again should be relied upon.

 

What about? ..

Old Computer Formats and the longevity of our digitally stored knowledge. Are we entering into a "pre-history" era? How can we preserve our computer written records, books, photographs, video and knowledge? We must have an international agreement and an organization, perhaps under auspices of the United Nations, dedicated to preserving our global digital records so that future generations can access the information and knowledge that we store on computer readable formats.

If you wanted to, would you be able to read a:

    3 1/2" or 5 1/4" or 8" floppy?
    cd-rom or a dvd?
    12" optical disk?
    9 track tape?
    IBM punch card?
    Paper punch tape?

If you can not read these one or two generation old formats today, how will society be able to read these documents in 200 years from now? In a few years, our latest computer formats and storage devices, such as USB drives, will also be obsolete. I have deep concerns about the longevity of our knowledge and of computer records, ...read more ...

What is the speed of gravity? If it is instantaneous, then what if gravity can be modulated? Today most scientists, assume that the speed of gravity is the same as the speed of light, but what if the speed of gravity is instantaneous? Further, if gravity can be modulated, it might allow for instantaneous universal communication. Thus it might be possible to communicate with space craft instantly, rather than waiting for minutes for transmissions to reach the craft or earth. Perhaps computer chips can be made to operate vastly faster. And this is just the beginning since ...read more ...

Questioning the results of modern science. For the last 100 years, we have been experiencing the collapse of real science. Theories, speculation and fantasy is the norm today. By definition, the scientific method is the ability to test and re-test and always get the same results, over and over. If an idea or a theory can not be tested, the idea must be viewed as speculation and not considered true, till that idea is proven without a doubt. Scientific theory has moved to areas that are beyond our present capability of testing and gradually a number of unproven theories have become accepted as fact without any real proof. Further, new theories have been developed based on old theories. Thus we have a situation where science today is largely based on theory upon theory. If something can not be proven, it falls into the realm of philosophy rather than science. This has led to...read more ...

Science and media hype: Any sudden "revolutionary" scientific discovery, even if such discovery is written about in every newspaper and scientific journal, should be greeted with skepticism. Such a discovery should only be accepted after the bulk of scientists have have had a chance to review the discovery and confirm that it is in fact correct.
