Forward March for the Rubashkins

“We’re not afraid of hard work.” Getzel and Meir Simcha Rubashkin acclimate to new venues in New York.

Over the past few years, images of the Rubashkin family have been freeze-framed in our consciousness: The meat plant. The raid. The living room. The courtroom scenes. The rallies…These scenes have been seared on our collective memory. The Rubashkins, though, have chosen to move forward. They’ve relocated and recalculated, adjusting the rhythm and routine of daily life to meet new challenges.

Op-Ed: Why I Didn’t Attend the Police Family Picnic

Mayor Mike Bloomberg at the 71st Precincts Family Day Picnic in 2008. Archive Photo.

I knew it was happening, I even heard the drumming, but I did not attend the annual 71st Precinct Family Day Picnic.

I don’t like the police, I think they are just a tool used to fill the city’s coffers.
