Do you need a New York politician to do your bidding? Because it appears DeBlasio will bend over for a buck:
When New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced recently that he’d make banning the city’s horse-drawn carriages his first priority, a lot of people were left asking, “Really?”
Indeed, for all the problems de Blasio claims the city struggles with, it would seem horse-drawn carriages would take a back seat. But they haven’t and he’s pursuing the ban.
And there may be a reason why: A major de Blasio campaign donor and real-estate executive may be tied up in the drive to banish the iconic carriages, according to The American Spectator.
….
And here’s something interesting from an anti-carriage brochure circulated in 2008: “Currently, the stables consist of 64,000 square feet of valuable real estate on lots that could accomodate [sic] up to 150,000 square feet of development. These lots could be sold for new development.
….
“What are the odds that good neighbor Nislick, the out-of-state real estate developer, simply covets those valuable, underdeveloped New York lots — and has teamed up with ambitious pols to use the emotions of animal rights activists as fuel for their own agendas?” Gross asked.
And here’s where we get the de Blasio connection: A 501(c)4 group called New Yorkers for Clean, Livable and Safe Streets (NYCLASS) founded by Nislick dropped a lot of cash on the far-left candidate’s mayoral campaign, according to Crain’s New York Business.

So DeBlasio, how much do you want to stop being an anti-gun douche? How much to stop persecuting honest carriage operators trying to earn a living? $50,000? $100,000? What’s the price of a Marxist whore these days?
