An advocate with a blossoming career influencing public policy was stabbed to death by an unhinged stranger while waiting for a Brooklyn bus early Monday on the way home from a wedding with his girlfriend, police sources said.

Ryan Carson worked as the senior solid waste campaign director at the nonprofit New York Public Interest Research Group. In 2021, separate from his NYPIRG work, he walked 350 miles across New York State to pressure then-governor Andrew Cuomo into legalizing safe drug injection sites throughout New York.

“One of the rising stars in our organization,” said a shaken Blair Horner, executive director of NYPIRG. “Wonderful person, hard-working, loud boisterous laugh. Everybody loved him.”



Carson, 32, spearheaded the 2021 “No OD NY” campaign. The initiative saw Carson and supporters walk from City Hall in Manhattan to Buffalo, with stops in Albany and other cities. He raised more than $20,000 for the campaign through a successful GoFundMe.

“I don’t think it’s at all an exaggeration to say that it’s a big loss for the city,” Ari Farrell, a friend of the victim, said of Carson’s slaying. “Anybody in his personal life will tell you he’s one of the best, the most moral, they’ve ever met.”

Carson cowrote a 2021 Daily News op-ed “New York falters on fentanyl and the opioid crisis,” which accused Cuomo of touting his handling of the COVID epidemic while ignoring the spread of fentanyl throughout the state.



He was waiting with his girlfriend at the B46 bus stop on Malcolm X Blvd. near Lafayette Ave. in Bedford-Stuyvesant after taking the Long Island Rail back from a wedding when a belligerent stranger started knocking over scooters parked nearby about 3:50 a.m., cops said.

“What are you looking at?” the man snarled at the startled couple before stabbing Carson twice in the chest, according to cops.

Medics rushed Carson to Kings County Hospital but he couldn’t be saved. He was about a mile from his apartment when he was stabbed.

His killer ran off and is on the loose.



Carson was set to turn 32 on Friday and friends were planning a birthday bash.

“There’s a big party on Saturday,” said Bucky Illingworth, 31, Carson’s roommate. “It was gonna be here and then we were gonna go for a hike in a week or two.”

Illingworth described Carson, who was 6-foot-4, as “the friendliest giant ever.”

“Always down to meet new friends, cook, always had a beer for you,” Illingworth added.



Following the fentanyl-related overdose death of a 1-year-old boy at a Bronx day care last month, NYC Health Commissioner Ashwin Vasan called the synthetic opioid the most dangerous threat to New Yorkers’ health since COVID.

“I’m passionate about safe injection facilities because I’ve seen family members become addicted to opioids prescribed for pain caused by their occupations,” Carson wrote in the 2021 GoFundMe. “I’ve lost friends and family to the opioid epidemic, including my best friend, who died of a heroin overdose in 2016.”

On Point NYC would later open the first safe injection sites in the country in Washington Heights and East Harlem with the city’s blessing in November 2021. Safe injection sites remain illegal on the state and federal levels.

Carson enjoyed sports and attending concerts with friends.

“He was a huge basketball fan, Celtics fan, Red Sox fan,” Carson’s roommate said. “He loved music. We went to shows together all the time.”

Good riddance and fucking rest in piss.

Shitlib should have minded his own business and stopped hassling that future scholar.

It really is Street Smarts 101. Don't get involved with the crazies - do not talk to them, and for fuck's sake, do not try to attack them. They have nothing left to lose, so you need to run if you catch their attention. No one will save you if you get involved with them, and I almost learned that the hard way. People do not talk to them for a damn good reason.

A social justice warrior who advocated for safe injection sites for crazed junkies was killed by a crazed junkie who injected a knife into him on MLK Blvd.

Highly ironical.

The neighborhood this guy lived in is called Point Breeze and is described by Wikipedia as being a "multicultural neighborhood". It's 51% black. This was not some yuppie hipster place he was living in it was the ghetto. He relaxed around blacks he believed he was safe around and found out.

I think it's like the Fishtown part of Philly; there's a definite gentrification going on, but it's also rather unsafe. Real estate was relatively inexpensive there until investors and poor saps looking to start cutesy shops thought they could make money.

There's a reason it's called Killadelphia.

Fishtown is North Philly. It's next to Kensington and you do not go to Kensington unless you're a cop ready to lay down some TND. Point Breeze is South Philly which is still a nigger shithole and it's a bad idea to go for a stroll after dark but the area is gentrifying rapidly. It's full of retard hipsters and fags. Guy lived on one of the shittier blocks and I've no doubts that people other than him have been capped within a block of his place this year but there is also new apartments three blocks away full of college students and wannabe yuppies.

Oh yeah, North Philly is a complete shithole. However there are/were trendy businesses in Fishtown, like the Barcade (with really shitty games, from what I saw on their website), so I think there's a similar mentality going on.

Maybe I'm missing something, though? You might have more up to date information than I do.

…or you’re a junkerman looking to score some fentanyl.

the Barcade

I know someone who went to the barcade thing. He said it was just as gay as it seems.

Nah, I'm long gone. I was just poking around on street view last night when the story broke.

That's not surprising. I personally don't see the appeal in playing stuff like Pac-Man and Arkanoid, which have a billion clones. There are way better arcade games to play (that they'll never have), like Sunset Riders or Raiden.

Ah. I got some of my information from relatives that used to live in Philadelphia, and put it together with the businesses I know are there right now.

It looks like he escalated the situation. They had plenty of time to get away. Don’t try to scare them away or talk them down. If you’re going to fight, fight. He was bigger than the bad guy and had a few opportunities to get a good punch in.

Also wtf is with the girlfriend’s reaction? She just stands there? Her dumbass boyfriend probably conditioned her to never cry for help or call police.

"Y'all, we all just need to be compassionate and show empathy towards the housele-ACK!"

Fate was sealed when he escalated. Don't try and fuck around with the crazies.

Yeah... I've seen some that have the good stuff but that's rare now. I just wanna play Metal Slug 1-3 and X and maybe 1cc Contra.

I'm going to start calling faggots "advocates" on places where they ban you for saying faggot.

None of those types gives the slightest bit of shit about each other. They're self hating whites who could care less if another got it from a darkie. She's already fucking several dudes as is. What's one less white cuck to her?

Oh no, he was paying for my cosmetic surgeries. SHIEEEEEET, now I gotta find me another soyboy with daddy's money.

 

[Norbert the Tiger]

I read one of the articles, and one of his colleagues used almost all of the cliched buzz-words. Advocate, equity and justice, blah, blah, blah.

Really what this is about is that false ideology about race--namely that blacks are the way they are because of systemic racism, or any number of reaons besides biology and racial differences--is so heavily indoctrinated in the minds of people from about Kindergarten. No matter how striking the evidence is, no matter how all the other desperate theories are proven, they still try and hold that ball under water, but it impossible to hold a ball under water for long.

I have to say I love that girly push off when that blackie came off so aggressively. Someone in that situation might have a fighting chance if he throws a punch, but this guy would need the upper body strength.

I have found his "girlfriend."

Her twitter is locked down, so is her instagram. She has a gofundme for her mother who has some sort of cancer.

I was sure she was Jewish, but her mother is Honduran. Although not one of those neurotic Jewish women who will do all sorts of freaky shit, she is a minor variant with many of the same attributes I am sure. All the tats, etc.

Aside from get what you deserve, I cannot help but think of Woody Woodpecker's laugh, or this old jingle from Coronet paper towels "Extra value is what you get, when you buy coronet." He received precisely what was advertised here, he was just too stupid to see it.

Edit-- found two pics on twitter, one of victim one of perp. I did not see them posted elsewhere but there are a lot of posts. The pic of that effete twat is meme worthy.

 

[Xarpho's Return]

Don't forget pioneer in the field, Amanda Kijera, excerpted from her piece We Are Not Your Weapons–We Are Women (Archive), underlining my own for emphasis.

Holy shit that borders on parody.

Anyway, I wanted to check out what the area actually looks like: Pretty grim even in broad daylight, would be dangerous at night.

And now that I see the video it makes sense. Attacker is black (of course), black person has "tentacle hair" (always a problem), and the very worst thing to do to any threat: if you are unarmed, do NOT try some limp-wristed shove with one arm. Best option is to get the fuck out of there as fast as you can, even curling into a ball and hiding your face and vitals would've been a better strategy.

damn why would Ishowspeed do that?
jokes aside, this generic soydemon just reaped what he sowed, it's bizarre how the girlfriend is so calm with him dying on the floor, it could be shock but it's still strange

 

[Nigger Stripes]

This is a better video. Looks like Braids was smashing a car window and the deceased tried to intervene verbally.

As others have said he should have just minded his own business. There is no profit in involving yourself in property crimes being committed by an armed crazy person.

 

[Mikoyan]

Even if I was packing (I usually am), I wouldn't engage that. The fuck was he thinking? I'M GOING TO FIX THIS CITY ALL BY MYSELF, CHAT, I MEAN GIRLFRIEND. JUST WATCH OH GOD NOOOOO

These faggots claim that social workers should respond to niggers like the one in the video instead of cops.

The video shows exactly how that would turn out.

Bro died trying to stop a black guy from stealing probably $20 worth of shit out of another black persons car. What a waste. Call me a pussy but if I see a black guy doing that shit I'm ignoring it I'm not getting stabbed or shot over petty garbage.
