Stop cyclist crime
The bikes are totally out of control in New York City today (“E-bike danger an e-emergency,” May 29).
The bike lanes adjacent to the curb are considered to be not very safe. Bikers frequently travel at high speeds utilizing gas or electric motors, often disregarding pedestrians and traffic regulations.
Oftentimes, observers witness bikers on the sidewalk, riding in the opposite direction on one-way streets, going against the flow of traffic, and ignoring stop signs and red lights.
How many vehicular accidents have they caused and just kept going? How many pedestrians have they injured or killed with no consequences?
It is believed that these bikers behave recklessly because they believe they are not accountable to law enforcement, as they think elected officials support them. It has been suggested that all types of bicycles should undergo a process of licensing, registration, and insurance.

Trump’s triumphs
President Trump opened the Overton Window wide and let fresh air chase away the stale ideas of the left (“End of the Woke Road,” Rich Lowry, PostOpinion, May 28).
Democrats imposed pronouns, equity for “oppressed” people regardless of personal effort, political favor based on skin color and — perhaps the foulest idea of all — intersectionality.
The woke destroyed many schools, from elementary to universities, with mephitic ideas. They reduced heroes’ statues to rubble, rewrote our history and tried to transform our country into Nazi Germany for Jews.
No matter what others think of his presidency, Trump has engineered a great victory for America.

Not all migrants
While I have no problem with sending violent criminal migrants back to Venezuela, I find it cold-hearted and foolish to now be sending back the exceptional ones (“Ire at ICE detain of migrant student,” May 28).
Under a Biden-era entry program, this boy was legally here and on track to become a productive member of society. He was in high school, working part-time to help support his mother and siblings and showing up to his immigration hearings. The government changed the rules, and he is now locked up.
The old bait-and-switch is for catching rats, and not all immigrants are rats.

Democratic doom
One of the great things about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez running against Sen. Chuck Schumer in a Democratic primary is that we can get rid of one of them (“Schu’re in big trouble,” May 26).
Schumer has become an increasingly pathetic political figure over the last few years. As a Jew, his silence over pro-Hamas activists threatening Jewish students at many levels is an embarrassing example of political cowardice. His “we’re moving forward” responses to questions about his role in covering up former President Joe Biden’s mental capacity is insulting to the intelligence of Americans.
If AOC wins, we’re still stuck with an elitist phony whose concern for her constituents is a disgrace. Regardless, one is better than two.

Fugitive found
You can run, but you can’t hide (“ ‘Cop stomper,’ busted,” May 28).
The coward who beat up an NYPD officer was nabbed in Virginia. Will his mommy and family friend be charged with harboring a fugitive? The feds should give them a look.
