Christine Quinn's ''Dream'' Fundraiser Turns into ''Nightmare'' as Her Personal Assistant Screams the F-Bomb to St. Vincent's Protesters.
LGBTQ activists, Health care activists, government transparency activists, public official integrity activists, and animal rights activists held a flashmob protest outside City Council Speaker Christine Quinn's fundraiser at Dream nightclub tonight in Chelsea.
Many LGBTQ activists and allies joined the emergency protest organised outside Speaker Quinn's fundraiser. Many LGBTQ activists said they believe that Speaker Quinn should have started fighting for marriage equality in 2005, back when Mayor Michael Bloomberg ordered the appeal of a landmark gay marriage ruling. In all her time in public office, Speaker Quinn has subjugated herself to the misogynist domination of Mayor Bloomberg.

Still yet other protesters held up signs as a reminder to the U.S. Justice Department that nobody has yet to be indicted in Speaker Quinn's office for her role in the City Council slush fund scandal.
Community activists, who support the opening of a full-service hospital with Level 1 Trauma Center held up a banner, shaming Christine Quinn's ''do nothing'' record on saving St. Vincent's Hospital. The banner attracted hate speech from one of Speaker Quinn's highly-paid staff members, as indicated below :

Why can Christine Quinn tolerate an employee, who curses out her own constituents ? Do you know he is paid $113,000.00 plus an annual City Council slush fund bonus ? Is he being paid to tell New Yorkers off ? I wonder if the NY Post or the NY Daily News will pick this up ?
ReplyDeleteLeads one to speculate on their classy vocabularies, beyond public earshot.
ReplyDeleteThis is silly.
ReplyDeleteChristine Quinn is one of the most corrupt politicians in our city government. She has only one agenda, and it only benefits her and those who support her.
ReplyDeleteThe last thing we need is this one in the mayor's office. She has done enough damage as it is.
My concern is that she has prevented every important animal welfare bill from making it to the council floor. Every one.
