You think I make these stories up? So I just created up, out of thin air, this shooting in the Bronx? So shootings don't happen in the Bronx? I'm trying to keep the Idaho transplants, who come on this website asking if it is a good idea to take a 3 bedroom for $500 a month in the South Bronx, well informed about the dangers of certain areas in New York. To act as if certain boroughs/neighborhoods are somehow as safe as other areas would be actually lying and putting others in harms way. My apologies if my brutal honesty offends any of you. This is what we call America. You have the option to not click on my threads. Again, if my honesty is not in agreement with your thinking I am not putting a gun to your head and telling you to click on my threads. You don't need to click on them.
Have a splendid night!
If that's your intent, it would be a lot more objective if you just linked them to the NYPD crime rate map.

Again, if these REAL LIFE news events are somehow offensive to you allow me to remind you again -- we live in AMERICA. We have FREEDOM OF CHOICE. You do not have to click on my threads.
My intent is to keep the Midwest transplants well informed about certain areas of New York that are sketchier than others. I'm not going to sit here and lie to these people that certain areas of New York are not as safe as others. While you may feel fine doing that I do not. Again, if my real news stories I post offend you do not click.

I didn't say it was offensive. I chose to click on this thread and I chose to respond.
I'm lost. Sounds to me like some folks here don't want news reports of the daily murders in NY Boro's to be published? Whats the reason?
I'm trying to figure that out myself. I didn't make these shootings/stabbings/quality of life issues up. I commented that Willamsburg was "boring" to me but I didn't hear these people on my crime threads all up and arms about that. But when I post real life happenings from the Bronx to Brooklyn it's somehow a problem now.
My agenda is first and foremost to keep these Midwestern transplants well informed. It would a damn shame to hear someone got raped/robbed/murdered because he/she was informed by someone on this website that it was "perfectly fine" for a Michigan born girl to live in the South Bronx. A lot of transplants come on here asking if they'll run into trouble living in certain areas of New York. I'm here to tell them yes, it is extremely likely, you will run into problems.
Yes, apparently. Just checked OP's posting history. They definitely have an agenda. Yawn.
He's afraid of gentrification and wants to stop his rent from going up more! Other threads have complained about Amazon delivery in the Bronx and "how can I apply for section 8."
