I like to think he'll be remembered forever for organizing the single greatest press conference ever held in a landscaper's parking lot.
I’m going to remember him as being the driving factor behind “stop and frisk” which saw an increasingly hostile and racially insensitive police force in America’s biggest city.
Before he was a melting alcoholic, a incompetent lackey for an incompetent wannabe mafioso president, or held the whitewashed and unearned “America’s Mayor” title after 9/11, he was the guy whose cops shot a man 41 times after he ran away from them. I suspect Amado Diallo was running from the cops because just a few years prior, the same police force had sexually assaulted an immigrant - a black man - that was handcuffed in their precinct by
Abner Louima required several corrective surgeries and two months of hospitalization.doing terrible things
sodomizing him with a broken broom handle in his anus and mouth to the extent that they broke several of his teeth and caused severe damage to his colon and bladder.
So, yeah, that’s the Giuliani I remember. Oh, and when he dressed in drag to entertain Trump.
Guy really put the dildo store next to it on the map. RIP rudi Gulliani - dildo store promoter.
Where were you the day satire died?
I can't remember where I was, but I do remember what I did. Nearly dying laughing.
As a New Yorker, here's my favorite Giuliani story.
After winning his first election, but before he was inaugurated, Rudy happened to be on the scene of a pedestrian struck. A kid was the victim and his mother was there. Mom wanted the ambulance crew to take her son to the hospital where her husband was a doctor.
The EMS lieutenant was trying to explain that it was protocol to take the boy to the nearest hospital. Rudy decided to get involved and overrode the proper medical procedure. The crew took the child past several hospitals.
Rudy went to the media and lied that the EMS lieutenant and crew had neglected the boy and tried to make himself a hero.
dude that's wild - and the rest of the story?
THAT BOY SURVIVED AND GREW UP, his name was George Anthony Devolder Santos. AKA Anthony Santos, Anthony Devolder, George Anthony Devolder, George Michael Santos, George Devolder, George A.D. Santos, Anthony Zabrovsky, George Anthony Santos-Devolder, Katara Ravache
Cmon someone just let a little air in the IV please
At a certain point existence because torture...
Like 81 is old, but it's really fucking old for an alcoholic. His brain is mush and his life is filled with confusion, fear, and resulting anger lashing out at anyone who is forced to be around him.
Any brief moments of lucidity is even worse because while you can't remember everything, you know the lucidity is a fleeting grasp and any one could be your last. It instills an existential type of horror I can't even begin to think I understand.
So yeah, I hope he recovers and keeps living. I like the idea of 91 year old Rudy on some sort of house arrest or elderly prisoner facility.
You're not wrong, I've watched my mother die from alcoholism and would've ended up there too had I not finally dried out a year beforehand. If anyone should go through it, it would be him.
But im a Buddhist and I think the calculus for a minimum of suffering for him and the rest of us would be for him to just... move on, you know?
Stupid moral compass getting in the way of my thirst for justice...
You're thinking of him getting rich people care...
Whatever money he has left won't last much longer.
I'm not Buddhist, but I know a good amount about religion.
So genuinely asking:
Isn't even decades more of the worst suffering absolutely nothing on a cosmic scale and could only give his soul time to improve?
Like, that would literally be the purpose of his cycle, to realize behavior so far doesn't equal a reward. A death may be merciful for this incarnation, but long term what's merciful is to give him as much time as possible to try and reach enlightenment, I don't think you can just "write off" a cycle. It's not the same as being ok with you're own death because you're enlightened
Yes that would be correct, I was being flippant. Continued life would be ideal for him (although he is in no way on the Path), but his existence has directly increased suffering for those affected by him.
I was trying to say it would be more merciful to the rest of us. Im not a very good Buddhist.
I am using this as an excuse to share this trailer for a documentary I want to see
Cool! Looks interesting, thanks :)
It actually takes a lot of air to cause an embolism in a vein. Like 100+CC.
Someone just let a little methanol into the IV please. It might not be lethal but it'll definitely hurt and the blindness is a bonus.
I feel bad for the nurses.
Great work, now do Trump
Has he paid off those Georgia election workers yet?
I grew an entire field of Fucks this year and unfortunately I’ve already run out of them. Oh well!
Hope he dies
He got a heart attack because he found out his hooker was over 18?
Rest in piss you fucking ghoul.
Oh no, get worse soon 💖
Hope it hurts.
The wake will be held at Four Seasons landscaping.
Very convenient, the crematorium is practically next door
Rats. He’s still alive.
Oh no. So close to the right guy for a blood clot...
Maybe they'll send him to the Delaware Valley Cremation Center once it's all over. His staff should know the place, it's right next to Four Seasons
~Total~ ~Landscaping.~
I didn’t realize he was still still alive!
well, parts are.... no soul left tho, for decades.... he's been known to leak ichor as well.
as the kids say, he's got that ick drip
Please please please
HA
HA
oh no. anyway.
Thoughts and prayers, shitheel.
Good riddance!
Doubtless Trump will be personally visiting his good friend in the hospital. Maybe sneak him in some spray-on hair?
oh no, anyways...
Has he paid all his debts and fines?
Spokesman won't say why he's hospitalized? Rudy was coughing while hosting his show on Friday? Who wants to be it's COVID, but they don't want to say that because it messes up their narrative of "vaccines bad"?
