A sign of what 4 years of Democrat rule will be like; Scene from de Blasio's NYC: Video Shows Brazen Daylight Attack in Crowded City Center
New York City’s year-long issue with brazen, broad daylight attacks on its streets and sidewalks continued Tuesday when bicyclists attacked a man and woman driving in a luxury car in Manhattan, and one police officer is fed up.
A video that has gone viral on social media shows a BMW sitting at a stoplight, when a gang of what appear to be teens use their bicycles, fists and feet to wish its occupants an unhappy new year. One of the attackers succeeded in shattering the car’s windshield.
According to the New York Post, the attack occurred at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 21st Street at around 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. It wasn’t clear from the video what, if anything, might have provoked the attack.

$5,000 fine and 2 weeks quarantine; Head of Scotland's government gets caught breaking her own COVID law: 'This was a stupid mistake' - TheBlaze
Hypocrisy among elected officials when it comes to COVID-19 restrictions they advocated for and put into place is enough to drive citizens crazy, and no population is likely experiencing that more today than the people in Scotland.
Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, the head of nation's government, was caught violating her own COVID-19 law, and now she's issuing public apologies for the flub.
Join the club
The notion of "COVID rules for thee, but not for me" is something Americans have witnessed repeatedly from their politicians. The problem has been especially notable recently as the surge in the virus has led to more government-imposed restrictions.
- No one will forget California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom's unmasked event at a fancy California restaurant.
- Nor will folks from the Bay Area likely let news of San Francisco Democratic Mayor London Breed throwing a maskless party at the same restaurant a day later slip their minds.
- Denver's Democratic mayor, Michael Hancock, will long be remembered as the elected official who tweeted a warning to Mile High City residents to stay home for Thanksgiving just 30 minutes before his plane left to visit his daughter in Mississippi for the holiday.
- New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo was caught violating his own Thanksgiving advice by planning to have his 89-year-old mother over for dinner. He was shamed into rescinding the invitation.
- Austin Mayor Steve Adler, a Democrat, was forced to apologize after having the audacity to filming and sending a "stay at home" message to his constituents — from a tropical resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
- And just a week ago, Rhode Island Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo was photographed at a wine bar not wearing a face mask days after telling Rhode Islanders to "stay home except for essential activities."
It turns out, though, that embarrassing and glaring hypocrisy on COVID-19 restrictions is not a characteristic unique to U.S. officials.
What did the Scotland leader do?
The Scottish Sun reported Tuesday night that Scotland First Minister Nicola Sturgeon broke her own mask laws Friday.
A "concerned member of the public" photographed Sturgeon chatting maskless at a pub in Edinburgh on Friday and shared the picture with the newspaper.
According to current Scottish laws, the Sun said, customers in "hospitality settings" — which would include pubs — are required to wear a mask unless seated at a table.
The photo published by the Sun showed a maskless Sturgeon standing and talking with three elderly women at the "hospitality setting" following a funeral wake that had taken place in another part of the facility.
Sturgeon, who has been a major advocate for masks and has repeatedly lectured about their importance, was extremely apologetic.
"Last Friday, while attending a funeral wake, I had my mask off briefly. This was a stupid mistake and I'm really sorry," she told the Sun. "I talk every day about the importance of masks, so I'm not going to offer any excuses. I was in the wrong, I'm kicking myself and I'm sorry."
