irony never sleeps: "Gov Cuomo ordered them removed"

[kelber at mindspring.com]

The MTA is a state, not city agency. In general, the state government has a huge amount of control over city policy. Do Blasio sought, but didn't get, Cuomo's permission to raise taxes on the wealthiest city residents.

I don't have a problem with not allowing Nazi symbols on the subway. Just the other day, a random white guy sitting across from me was ranting about Jews. I'm glad there were no swastikas tossed into the mix.
