Meanwhile in the Democrat hellhole of New York City…

A suspect wielding a Samurai sword attacked a man inside a subway station in Lower Manhattan Thursday morning.

The victim had a gash on his forehead and his wound is not considered life-threatening.

The assailant is still at large.

The Daily Mail reported:

A samurai sword-wielding assailant wearing a ninja suit is on the loose after attacking a man with the weapon inside a New York City subway station Thursday morning.

Police responded to the Chambers Street station in Lower Manhattan around 9:30 a.m. after receiving a 911 report of a man with a knife on a northbound A train.

They located a victim who had a cut to his forehead. He told officers that the suspect struck him with the handle of the sword. His wounds are not considered to be life-threatening, police said.

Additional police officers have been called to assist after the suspect was seen fleeing the subway station.

Police say the suspect is wearing a ninja suit with a rainbow-colored pattern on the sleeves, a black baseball hat with a Marvel logo on the front. The samurai sword has a pearl handle, police said.

This is the latest attack on a subway platform in New York City.

Earlier this month a gang of females clad in head-tote neon-green leotards stormed a NYC subway and robbed several teenagers.

A 21-year-old woman visiting New York City from St. Louis, Missouri was raped on a subway platform last month.

A 14-year-old boy was fatally stabbed on a New York City subway platform over the summer.

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is the world’s biggest plastic accumulation area, and scientists are hard at work trying to get rid of the debris. 

This month, workers got rid of more than 10 tons of plastic, with the entire amount that has been removed coming to over 145 tons. However, that amount of materials barely makes a dent, since the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is estimated to hold more than 2.41 million tons of plastic, and it’s only getting bigger. 

In a video posted to Twitter, massive amounts of plastic can be seen dumped out on the deck of a ship. 

On October 11 we extracted the largest single catch for System 002 to-date; 10,086 kg of plastic removed from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch after only 6.5 days, bringing us to a total of 145,518 kg extracted so far. pic.twitter.com/T0n1vVttmK

The area is also called the Pacific trash vortex, and is made up of the Western Garbage Patch, as well as the Eastern Garbage Patch. The western patch is near Japan, whereas the eastern one is in between California and Hawaii. Rather than forming what some might consider to be a trash island, the patches are actually mainly composed of microplastics, or small plastic pieces, which aren’t always visible. Scientists also recently found that around 70% of debris that gets into the ocean ends up at the bottom. 

The Ocean Cleanup project is attempting to significantly cut down on the amount of plastic in the area over the next several years. Their goal is to get it down 90% by 2040.

The project’s site explained that millions of tons of plastic get into the world’s oceans each year, with most of it coming from rivers. The non-profit group is seeking to get plastic out of oceans by conducting massive clean up expeditions, as well as ending the ways that plastic pollutes the environment in the first place.

“This goal means we plan to put ourselves out of business – once we have completed this project, our work is done,” it noted. 

The project’s method of getting plastic out of the garbage patches includes creating an artificial coastline to push all of the plastic into one area. 

“With a relative speed difference maintained between the cleanup system and the plastic, we create artificial coastlines, where there are none, to concentrate the plastic,” the group explained. “The system is comprised of a long U-shaped barrier that guides the plastic into a retention zone at its far end.”

After the system is full, part of the retention zone is removed and its contents are brought onto the ship, and the process repeats itself. The extracted plastic is then taken to be recycled.  

“Catch, rinse, recycle and repeat – until the oceans are clean,” the group stated.
