Daniel Penny speaks out after acquittal in NYC subway chokehold case

Update as of 12/11/2024: "He added that he would endure a “million court appearances and the hatred and name-calling that comes with them” if it meant preventing even one person from coming to harm.

“This type of this is very uncomfortable. All this attention and limelight is very uncomfortable. I would prefer without it. I didn’t want any type of attention or praise … and I still don’t. The guilt I would have felt if someone did get hurt if he did do what he was threatening to do, I would never be able to live with myself,” Penny told Pirro when she asked him what made him choose to get involved."

Jury acquits Daniel Penny in New York City subway self defense chokehold death of a known violent and mentally ill black homeless man

Good news! Bravo! Justice prevailed! As a juror, I probably would have done the same.

Why was this repeat offender, violent, and mentally man not locked up?

It would have been a travesty of justice had he been found guilty of criminally negligent homicide!

Were leftist ideologues trying again to style or spin this case as another phony George Floyd case.

Was the homeless man mentally ill? Was he violent before? Yes!

"... Before his death, Neely did time in Rikers Island for assaulting an elderly woman and had been accused of angrily threatening subway passengers prior to the confrontation with Penny. Over the course of his life, Neely racked up more than 40 arrests and had multiple hospitalizations for mental health issues. ..."

I have recently blogged here about this outrageous case!

Caveat: I am not familiar with the details of the case.

"A jury in Manhattan found Marine veteran Daniel Penny not guilty of criminally negligent homicide Monday for putting a mentally ill homeless man, Jordan Neely, into a chokehold on a subway train, subduing him after he began threatening passengers. ..."

Daniel Penny Acquitted in Subway Chokehold Death of Homeless Man

The leftist prosecutor Dafna Yoran. Maybe she should be fired for bringing such frivolous cases! She is the Assistant District Attorney of the infamous DA Alvin Bragg! Dafna Yoran does not even have an official webpage according to Google & Bing search!

What a joke! Another DEI warrior!

The Prosecution Of Daniel Penny Is A Soviet-Style Attack On The Right Of Self-Defense by the infamous Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg

This is a very serious case about the right to self-defense!

It is also a stark reminder again that known violent mentally ill individuals should no be out in public!!!

"Closing arguments were heard in the New York City trial of military veteran Daniel Penny, who is charged with murder for subduing a dangerous mentally ill homeless man on a subway train.

The TPPF take: The prosecution of Daniel Penny is an attack on the right of self-defense.

“If capable, well-intentioned individuals like Penny refrain from intervening, who will ensure public safety in moments of crisis?” asks TPPF’s Chuck DeVore. “New Yorkers, already accustomed to high-profile subway crimes, may feel abandoned. It is no coincidence that under DA Alvin Bragg, a prosecutor known for prioritizing controversial cases like those against President-elect Trump over addressing violent crime, public trust in the justice system has justifiably eroded.”"

"American justice has become politicized — a weapon against enemies with hall passes for favored groups. Attorney General Merrick Garland, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and dozens of big city, George Soros-funded leftist district attorneys routinely prosecute innocent citizens while letting criminals walk free.

The actions of these powerful officers of the law fit a pattern that the great Soviet-era Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn not only would have recognized, but he also detailed. ...

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s prosecutions of both Donald Trump and Daniel Penny — closing arguments for Penny’s trial are scheduled for after Thanksgiving — combined with his leniency for deadly criminals are a case in point. ...

Penny, a former Marine, intervened when Jordan Neely became aggressive and threatening on a subway train. Neely, who tragically died, either during the confrontation or shortly after ... had a long history of violence and assault. By stepping in, Penny averted harm to fellow passengers. Yet instead of being hailed as a protector, Penny was prosecuted. It appears Bragg is a fan of the Soviet Union’s Article 139. ..."

Violence Rages in Chicago. Marine Sues for Right to Bear Arms

About time! The Illinois harassment of gun owners called FOID (Firearms Owners Identification card) is void and unconstitutional!



"This week, a former Marine named D’Andre Bradley teamed up with the Goldwater Institute to take a stand. On Monday, he and three other Chicago-area citizens filed a lawsuit against the state of Illinois in response to the government’s failure to issue the licenses it requires to buy or possess a firearm. "

Who Wants To Be The Next Victim Of A Terrorist Attack?

Limited Government - Not Big Brother

Having grown up in Germany in the immediate post World War II period I sure do not like any totalitarian states or any comprehensive government surveillance of its citizens. My blog post is my creed!

Abstract Principles Do Not Trump
The Killing Of Humans By Fanatics

Does anyone of those individuals who feverishly hail Mr. Edward Snowden as some kind of a hero want to be the next victim of a mindless, future terrorist attack? Those individuals count on the low probability that they themselves will be the next victim. This is an egoistic and inhumane attitude. Nobody deserves to die because of a fanatic.

We know at least since Voltaire that you cannot argue with a fanatic. This is perhaps a harsh observation. It may not apply to every fanatic, but it is generally not very far off from the truth. However, terrorists who intend to kill or kill themselves to kill as many other innocent humans as possible are fanatics.

Self-Defense Against Homicidal Fanatics Is
An Utmost Basic Government Function

These fanatics would probably not hesitate to use the deadliest weapons they can possibly get hold off. How about some kind of a very contagious and deadly disease created by a terrorist at his home using off the shelf equipment? Therefore, it is a primary, genuine duty of a democratically elected government to protect its citizens from such fanatics. The ultimate responsibility of each citizen and our elected representatives is to make sure that sufficient safeguards are put in place.

Non-Violence Principle

This fundamental principle of civilized society cannot be repeated enough:

1.       Violence is only to be used as a self-defense against attacks on your person or your family to prevent imminent harm

2.       If you have grievances against government or any other institution etc. you have to resort to non-violent means first and be patient for a long time.
