When malevolence is hailed as martyrdom, justice is lost. Critics decried “racial disparities” in the delayed arrest and charging of Daniel Penny. Yet, where was this outrage when Jordan Neely, with over 40 arrests, was repeatedly released back onto the streets? Do we call that a “racial disparity”? What about criminals freed on minimal bail, only to endanger others again? Where is the outcry then? We heard accusations of “disproportionate use of force” against Daniel Penny. But Neely was alive when Penny released him, placed in a position of recovery. This dismantles the narrative of Penny as a ruthless “murderer” or “lyncher.” But what kind of force is acceptable when confronted by someone who is presenting himself as a threat, vocalizing his intent to harm, and actively coming at you? Penny acted to protect those on the train, and himself, restraining Neely under immense stress and imminent danger. Should Penny have waited, hoping for dialogue, while danger loomed? Should Penny have waited for Neely to deliver on his threats? And where were the police? Why did they take so long to arrive? Why aren’t subways adequately patrolled? The NYC justice system failed. The eyewitnesses on that train all told the same story: Neely was a danger to himself and everyone on board. What Penny did was heroic. The only “crime” Penny committed was being a brave and selfless Marine who confronted that danger. Democrat-led cities do not protect citizens; they enable chaos, and if you dare to have the courage to do the right thing, you’ll suffer the consequences.
