manspreading can you arrested now

[GunRanger]

Two Latino men were allegedly arrested for manspreading, sitting with knees wide open, thus occupying two seats on May 22 at 12:11am, according to a report released by the Police Reform Organizing Project in New York. This is probably the first time manspreading has led to an arrest and court appearance.



Although, according to the report, the judge said that at the time of the arrest there could not have been many passengers on the train, she nevertheless slapped the two men with an ACD, which means that charges against them will be dropped if they don't get arrested again for a fixed period of time, the report says.

In January, the Metropolitan Transit Authority rolled out an ad campaign reminding men to “mind the gap” and keep knees closer together while seated on public transport.

Robert Gangi, Director of Police Reform Organizing Project (PROP), which compiled the report, says the NYPD is criminalizing a subway etiquette faux pas as an excuse to issue more fines and arrest people, most of whom are poor minorities.

“We think it’s driven by a quota system. There is almost no other rational explanation for why the cops would conduct this kind of arrest unless they are under pressure to meet certain numbers, to meet with their productivity goals,” Gangi told RT’s Maria Portnaya.

Someone really needs to compile a list of all the reasons NYC is a trash city and add this. You remember when that guy got a ticket for spitting? Then there's that hollaback campaign that came out with that 10 hours of walking as a woman video.

Wait til the real estate bubble pops and all those foreign owned LLCs are trying to sell their property.

This is what happens when you give unhappy women a voice and platform, they play the victim and make issues out of nothing. No dudes are going to be sitting all buddy buddy all in each others lap, if she were a man she'd understand but let any one of them sit next to her scary ass I guarantee she's got a problem

Where do people expect the man in the middle of that picture to sit? If he sits properly in either seat, he'll be touching the one of the other two.

Imagine if a woman breastfeeding was confined to 1 seat.
All hell would break loose.

If you watched the RT segment, notice they're targeting Latinos and minorities to fill a quota.

1,400 manspreading incidents reported this year.

Pigs and CAC feminists working in conjunction.

I disagree with getting arrested over this dumb shyt but I also don't see the point in taking up a whole bunch of seats with your legs all spread. Gotta be considerate to others, especially if not many seats are available. I can't imagine times like rush hour.

In January, the Metropolitan Transit Authority rolled out an ad campaign reminding men to“mind the gap” and keep knees closer together while seated on public transport.

Entire blogs have been created to document the culprits who don’t comply. Even actor Tom Hanks was publicly shamed, being called the “new face of manspreading.”

Hanks excused himself, saying that the “train was half empty.”
