New york voters elected pro-jihadi , left/liberal scumrats and they deserve what they get. And the very same nuts want to bring in more illegals/jihadis who rape, assault, murder women !

And by the time they realise their stupidity they get assaulted , gang raped or murdered like this couple its too late for them http://offtrade.net/cnmnews/libs-say-evil-is-myth/

Problem is they enable evil while not able to see evil thanks to pro-jihadi left/liberal indoctrination in schools/colleges where real history of islam and America is no longer taught.
