NYPD Charges 46 Subway Break Dancers With Reckless Endangerment

[Jesus Malverde]

After recently learning that New York sleeps in later than every other city in the country, we’re wondering why the NYPD is trying so damn hard to get rid of subway break dancers.

Because what does a better job of waking New Yorkers up than dodging flailing legs on the L train at 9:00 a.m.?  Oh yeah, we have Starbucks for that.

But despite the fact that some New Yorkers enjoy a little artistic expression with their subway rides, the NYPD sees these entertainers as a danger to us all.

Official say that 46 subway break dancers have been charged with reckless endangerment so far this year. Another 50 have been charged with disorderly conduct, New York reports.

There were only two such charges of reckless endangerment committed by subway dancers in 2013.

A crusade against the youth, no matter what they do. Busted for breaking, stopped and frisked for walking....
