The kids get government assistance and can ride the bikes at a discounted rate for 45 minutes. Then they have to dock them. Then they have to wait a given time to recheck them out at the same lowered rate. It’s gaming the system, just like it was to record this woman and release the footage in a way that made the group of teenagers look like the victims. For a guy who says it’s complicated all the time, the NewsOne story Jesse parroted did not complicate anything. The woman reserved that particular bike. The teenagers sat on them because they wanted to continue riding around at a reduced rate. This is a New York City story of someone putting a garbage can out to hold a parking spot and someone moves the garbage can and takes the spot. The person who puts the garbage can there is an asshole. There’s nothing complicated about it.
