I have a question.
#NYC went through 9/11. In the months and years that followed, we constantly heard about disaster preparation. We were told that our city of *8 million people* could be attacked again at any moment, by *bioweapons*, by poison gas, by nuclear laced bombs.

Hundreds of billions of dollars were spent. Entire agencies created. Cops everywhere. Stop and frisk.
WHY THE FUCK DIDN& #39;T WE HAVE A MASSIVE STOCKPILE OF PPE AND LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT?!

If our governments were so concerned for our safety that they had to stop every black kid with a backpack in the subway and cavity search our grandmothers at the airport, why the hell wasn& #39;t there a plan to deal with MASS CASUALTIES OF A BIOHAZARD?
WHY?
WHY?
I& #39;m serious. All these years, I assumed the city- not the Federal government, not the CDC or FEMA,
but @nycgov *itself* had a PLAN for us in case of a biological disaster.
Trump& #39;s a terrorist.
We were allegedly *prepared for terrorists.*

All that supposed strategic planning. But there& #39;s no biohazard plan and no cache of supplies in case there was no time to call D.C. or in case outside supply lines were cut off somehow.
So, to sum up: Civil liberties were impinged in the name of *near-certain* future catastrophe and a fuck ton of money was spent in the name of safety but there was no acquisition of the things we would need to save lives during said catastrophe. In a city of 8 million.
OK.
OK.
#NewYorkCity when this is all over, we need to ask some tough questions and not rest until we get answers.
