Astoria drunk makes quite a spectacle
From Village Voice:
"My roommate Jill Hanner and I were enjoying a peaceful night at home when suddenly a drunk guy drives a vehicle into some gated private property behind my apartment and begins ramming it into piles of wood and metal. We called the police and informed them what was taking place. The car quickly catches on fire. The drunk guy pounds the car with pieces of metal. He climbs back into the car honks the horn and it blows out in a firey puff. The drunk guy begins pushing his fire engulfed car backwards while yelling and swearing. A second guy grabs him from the inferno minutes before an explosion takes place. The FDNY begin dousing the flames and a second explosion is heard. The NYPD arrive and the drunk guy starts running from the scene. The police quickly stop him, handcuff him and throw him in their van."

Typical libs,celebrating another suv taken off the streets.I hope they inhaled all the carcinogens released as the vehicle burned.Btw,the freon in the a/c becomes phosgene when burned,so enjoy the burning suv,moron!
Where does it say that the people are liberals?
It's apparent when they celebrate at the end of the video.
Looks like a local developer, Vallone $upporter, Pi$tilli doorman, member of community board one, or denizon of one the sleazy cafes that community is know for.
How about a regular habitue of astorians.com?
Problems? What problems? The community has no problems!
"oh my god, if the tree goes on fire, WE are gonna be on fire."
Go back to Ohio, douchebags.
Girl: "The ambulance shows up LAST....to a CAR FIRE!". Hey genius, you were the one crying that "we might go on fire" just a couple of minutes ago. Don't you think it was good for the FIRE TRUCK to show up first for the CAR FIRE? Then the cops showed up and grabbed the guy. I think all three agencies showed up in exactly the right order, and exactly when they were needed. I am shocked that they didn't complain that it took a WHOLE TWO MINUTES for help to arrive.

Disregard, it looks like the tape was edited, and it might have taken longer for the emergency crews to arrive. Still a good response though, and the guy has to answer for his stupidity.
I'd be really upset if people like this were not in Astoria. (the crazy guy who set his car on fire, that is... the videotapers can move back to fucking ohio so far's I'm concerned)
Certainly explains the driving experience in Astoria, with knuckle dragging cavemen cutting you off, speeding up to a light, beeping the horn soon as the light changes, do say nothing of pedestrians who dont even look up and bicyclists, oh God, the bicyclists.
