From Brownstoner:...a question about the safety and legality of these balconies built for Sukkot. Anyone know if they're on the up-and-up?
A commenter on that site wrote:
"WTF? Can you imagine how fast the DOB would come down on a building putting those up if the inhabitants DIDN'T represent a guaranteed voting block in the tens of thousands?"
Exactly.

Would love to see a video of someone falling out those tiny windows to get on the balcony. Or maybe some fat person getting stuck. That shit's just too regoddamndiculous.
The Jewish can get away with murder in this city.
This shit is clearly un-stable and took quite a wile to erect.
I wonder who gave the "layoff" order.
Wait a second.
Isnt Sukkot at the end of September and WTF does it have to do with balconys ?
Maspeth Mom says.
Even in the Brooklyns DA's office they have a seperate holding cell, if one of the Hassidim get arrested, the rabbi is called immediatley to the Brooklyn DA's office. No one phone call for them! They are also put a a special lock up, not in the general population while waiting for arraignment. So why are we surprised. They also get special treatment from the Meter Maid/Traffic Dept. in Brooklyn.

I've heard this before, and I would love to know why there has never been an investigation into this.
People that separate themselves from the rest of society have something to hide.
It makes me wonder what ELSE are they getting away with?
They are THE most disgusting, foul, nasty people in this city. They should put a wall up around themselves, keep inbreeding, and die off.

While not exactly in the same league, here is a recent story from an acquaintance who lives on the lower east side.
He is in a modern building that also has a lot of the Hasidim or orthodox types. On certain holidays they can not operate machinery of any sort, so in his high rise building the elevators are put in "test" mode and continuously stop at each floor so that these bizarre superstition-ists won't have to touch so much as a button.
Needless to say the is a huge inconvenience, a waste of electricity and extra wear on machinery.
I know this will sound like I belong in Archie's house but, if you can not adapt yourself to a modern country and accommodate your neighbors, go somewhere else.
Is that a picture of NYC, or a favela in Rio de Janeiro?

Translation: Privately, I believe most of what is written on Queens Crap, but publicly I put up a nice white liberal facade in order to maintain my job and my credibility. I'm basically a coward, and I ignore what my lying eyes tell me!

Agreed!

What a hypocritical P-O-S you are...that remark alone drips with condescension.
Those people in Rio that live in ramshackle dumps do-so because they have no choice. They are poor in a country that is only recently beginning a process toward economic justice.
Over in Bangkok we have shacks right near brand new condo towers, slowly those are giving way to more humane accommodations...if the country doesn't blow-up when the king dies.
I read this blog because it interests me. I have several businesses in the borough and have been going there weekly for twenty years.
There are a -lot- of knuckle dragers commenting here, but some of the concerns are legitimate, I have seen many changes that are worrisome.
There are several neighborhoods that I have to visit, frankly they are becoming unpleasant, way overcrowded and have developed an insular and sometimes sinister feel.
As it stands ALL of my close friends are from Mexico, El Salvador, Thailand and the Philippines, they have clued me in to a lot of what is happening out there and aren't too happy about the situation. Several have moved to what they feel are better/safer areas.
Yes I am Liberal, family is too, but I wasn't born yesterday.

Succoth,is that the festival of oral sex? My kind of religion...........
You tell 'em Lino.
Just wait, Liberal Lino, you haven't been mugged yet.
Lino, which Queens neighborhoods do you feel are becoming "insular and sinister?"
What's going on here? You squeeze through a window and walk out on an unstable platform? Did the plans for these get filed and approved with the Dept of Buildings?

Yes, I think I've seen you from my condo balcony. Aren't you the pasty white guy who lives in that shack made out of cardboard and old corrugated tin, and you usually walk around with a couple lady boys en route to Soi Cowboy?

Formerly known as the "some of my best friends are Black!" defense.

He probably doesn't have the balls...uhh.....intestinal fortitude to say so publicly.
He's probably checking the census records online right now, to find a mostly white neighborhood in Queens that he can use as a scapegoat.

Soi Cowboy huh..that explains a lot.
You are that diseased trash that stinks up one of the world's great cities with your exploitation of the natives.
My place is in SiLom district, I see drunken shirtless shits like you everyday over there. They are big stuff until they get their mouths shut.
Ignorant trash.

They've tried.

I am hoping that since the 2016 Olympics is being held in Rio, it will FORCE their government to do SOMETHING to improve the poor's miserable living conditions there. It will of course make known their plight to those who are not aware of even their existence. Orphaned children raising other orphaned children - horrific conditions - one of the worst on earth - if not THE worst.
Brazil is a very religious, very Christian nation that does not allow abortions.
is this dialogue for real? . . . .hmmm "guys" - seems a tad scripted to me.
God, -Joe... you're such an idiot. You're one of those people whose mouth starts moving about 30 seconds before their brain turns on.
"He probably doesn't have the balls...uhh.....intestinal fortitude to say so publicly."
Busted! Deke DaSilva is none other than the recently absent loudmouth Wade. Only Wade is enough of a douchebag to think the tired expression "intestinal fortitude" is clever. Welcome back, Wade.
Wow some really funny comments on this posting.
Anyways, what's up with that building with the funny looking balconies on stilts? It looks like a jungle gym. Where is that located?
Rio de Janeiro . . . .
Who's on first?

And all you useless LIBERALS are continuing THE DISTRUCTION OF MY COUNTRY!!!!
Holly sh*t! Who was the architect/engineer?
Holly sh*t. Can someone call 311 to make a complaint?

I put his handle into Google and this returned:

At least this time he didn't use the name of a dead gay porn actor.
Good catch.
Your connection to reality is looking a tad iffy there. Are you okay? Should we call someone for you?
If you want to see special privileges, go to the Queens College dining hall during Sukkot. They build a "sukkah" outside of the dining hall.
Then there is what they have all of the time. Like the kosher store inside the dining hall, which Queens College describes on its web site - "Just a Nosh is a special area that serves only Kosher food under strict rabbinical supervision". Then in the common dining area there is a sink - I don't even know what the hell it is. Kosher water? Kosher hand cleaning so the chosen people don't have to wash their hands in the same sinks that goyim and Muslims use?
That's not to mention the Jewish Studies program which amidst their takeover of the campus, indulges in Jewish paranoia with conferences like "Is it 1938 again?" ( http://qcpages.qc.edu/Jewish_Studies/isitdetails.html )
