A much shorter flyer would be "We are the Yale police and if we don't get a significant raise - we ain't doing our jobs. Careful walking around at night and sleep tight!"

The top comment...

Historically, New Haven is one of the poorest communities in the state when ranked by median income, while Yale's endowment grew to $42 billion this year. Universities typically do not pay property taxes, the major income for cities. Yale does give stipends to New Haven in the form of direct cash and scholarships, but is it enough, given its enormous wealth?

How much better off would the citizens of New Haven be if they had the property taxes for all the land and buildings the Ivy League school owns? How much better would the public schools be? The libraries? The parks? City jobs? This reeks of income inequality.

Imagine growing up with this mentality, being so scared of "outside", public transport, walking alone, etc... how this can influence the sensibilities, the mindset, and finally the politics of the people involved? Young adults that are requested to be indoor at 8pm in front of their computer or phones doing bullshit alone; either idealizing or demonizing a world they don't know and they don't want to know.

And that's supposed to be the country's elite, lol. This gated community mentality is and will be absolutely detrimental for everybody involved.

I'm going to go ahead and say that if whole bunch of Yalies were murdered every year the world would be a better place

Question: How does one ride the train "extremely cautiously"?

"BE SCARED", says man who's continued employment is contingent on you being scared.

This is just an edited version of the nyc fear city flyer from the 70s

Also lmao what fucking babies it’s really not that bad

ngl, if i lived near a posho university, i would rob them as often as possible

Do not be mislead by "Blue Phone cameras." They are not monitored.

Imagine being so naive to think security cameras were put in place to help you.

I hope this take isn't too controversial for hexabear, but we should probably grind all police into a fine paste

The only dangerous parts of New Haven are the fraternity houses.

Lol locals are sick of college kids fucking up the vibes at the local bars.

Anything to demonize public transportation in the most car brained evil society on earth
