As long as the killings, the drugs, the crimes stay in the "bad section" then they don't care.
And then when it comes to their neighborhoods what do they do ? Why they just up and move to a better section.

...sigh... This is why.

From your link:

A rookie police officer shot and killed a 14-year-old boy on a street early Sunday after he refused to drop his gun and pointed it in the direction of officers, authorities said.

Shaaliver Douse died of a single gunshot to his jaw after the confrontation in the Melrose section of the Bronx.
Two officers with the New York Police Department were on foot patrol when they heard gunfire at around 3 a.m. The officers responded to the scene and found the boy with a 9mm handgun firing shots at a fleeing man, authorities said.

Another freaking strawman. Find a new hobby.

What "making up assinine quotes"? Those were BHOs exact words.

I think you deserve a pass this time.

I'm rather impressed that a NYC police officer managed to make a stopping hit with one shot. Not your typical NYPD story.

From the story:

Quote:
"It's not fair. It was my sister's only child. You shouldn't have to bury your
child," she said.
It's amazing how many MORONS there are in this country. Maybe the sister should have tried being, oh, a PARENT. Not letting her precious, 14 year old out on the streets at 3:00 am where he attempts to murder innocent people. Hopefully she can be prosecuted and locked up for neglect. Of course the criminal justice system does play a part. This monster should have been kept behind bars until he was old enough to qualify for SS, based on his past criminal acts.

And for every one that gets caught/killed, how many others do you think get away with it ?

Common sense isn't taught in urban schools or families. The parents of these kids don't tell their kids what they need to hear-
"Do as the police say and you won't get shot by them" or, Life Lesson #1-"Don't break the law".
See how easy that is?

A rookie at that. Usually they shoot one of their own appendages off getting the gun out of the holster.

A lot of these kids grow up amid crime committed by their own family members.
Visiting a relative in jail is a common occurrence.
This is their "normal".

And if you've worked with challenged kids you know this is true.
If you haven't then you form opinions based on how you live.

That is because the police are out to get you, and specifically target certain crowds.
