Staten Island 'Autonomous Zone' Bar Owner Won't Be Prosecuted

For Allegedly Driving Into Sheriff's Deputy

And these Staten Island assholes were so outraged by "Defund the Police".

But they cheer on this guy who tried to kill a cop.

Do I have to tell you he is white?

From Saturday Night Live, Pete Davidson and Colin Jost, both of whom are from Staten Island, discuss their different reactions to their hometown.

Two of my favorite highlights are at 1:20 and 2:11! Priceless.

Regardless, the whole piece is great. Enjoy.
