Peter Vallone Loves Gentrification

morestuff4richppl.jpg

My good friend (hahahah) Peter Vallone is back at it again. Having failed miserably in his fight to curb graffiti in NYC (including a huge rise in graffiti in his own neighborhood - which he blames on Arizona Ice Tea!) and after being humiliated on the Colbert Report after a 6 year old was fined for writing on the sidewalk with chalk, Vallone is now going after what may be an even easier victim than a little child - your occasional dabbler of vandalism. Vallone is proposing a requirement for all construction sites to clean any vandalism from their wooden barrier fences or face steep fines. Perhaps it is Petey boys connection to Michael Bloomberg that has caused him to conjure up this idea. You see, often construction site graffiti is commentary by those in the neighborhood on the horrible yuppie welcoming, gentrification mega condos that are destroying NY, and we all know Bloomers wants his legacy in NYC to be the death of the working class and elimination of your right to protest or speak up. Jeez, is it 2009 yet, so we can oust these poor excuses for representatives of the people?!?
