I have  read that one individual who was arrested  was merely wearing a rainbow bracelet to celebrate Pride month.  He claims he was  using the urinal and not cruising.    Till all this nonsense is over (I suppose the next three years) I wouldn't cruise Penn Station, that's for sure.  I don't think they are merely looking for illegal immigrants, it's just a form of harassment of the gay community.  It seems as if we are moving backwards in time, not forward.

Penn Station is pretty much a homeless shelter, and not very safe these days. Unfortunately it's one of the few places the hot guys from long Island insist on hooking up while waiting for their trains home. There was this North Carolina BBQ joint that was across the street that had a ton of action going on. Nothing better than a beer and a BJ. Unfortunately that place closed during Covid

Call it what you will but this is how WWII Germany was taken over. Here's how it works, the government gets about 30% of the population to accept what they're doing as part of the common good (restoring decency, improving the economy, making things safe, protecting our rights, promising to make things "great" (without defining what that actually means, etc.) Next, those in power point to those who are different (immigrants, homosexuals, non-christians, etc.) to create a common enemy and then place the blame for the ills of society on them.  Next, silence and force news agencies, media and reporters to comply by threatening anyone who doesn't follow government imposed protocols with lawsuits and penalties for non-compliance. Along with this, dismantle and demean institutions of education (and anyone who recognizes and informs others about what is happening)  so that their warnings are rejected and they are ridiculed for their efforts.  Finally, infiltrate and then systematically dismantle any opposition so that the ruling party controls all levels of government. This is what's happening in America. United, we could turn this around but the problem is that everyone thinks someone else is doing the work to stop this. EVERYONE needs to be marching in the streets,  writing letters of protest, and boycotting the complicit before we lose our ability to stop this.

Well, maybe they'll stop insisting now.  Frankly, I don't know why anyone would cruise the men's room at Penn Station.  In the age of Grindr and Sniffies, there are better, safer ways of getting a fuck or a blowjob.

Exactly, plus you still have a few of those sleazy video places left a few blocks away. Cops never go in there, they already know the score.
