I don't get it. Why do these violent shootings always seem to happen in predominatly Blue State/liberal/progressive cities?
And why would anybody bring a gun to a family barbeque?
"Even before Sunday’s mass shooting doubled Florida’s 2016 victims, the state still led the country, followed by California with 73 people killed or wounded, and Texas with 62 victims of significant gun violence."
Ridgewood (shares border with bushwick) is way too close to brooklyn to be anywhere near mostly Italian/polish. They left central Brooklyn a long time ago and moved further away to get away from the influx of minorities in the 60s/70s.
Their lost though, good to see minority homeowners finally benefiting and selling their homes for millions that was purchased for less than 100k back in the days.
Amongst stabbings that I saw reported on the news this afternoon.
I've wondered for years why people think NYC is such a great city. Much of the people are criminal, drug addicts, socially inept, stupid (literal sense here, as in having IQ's of less than 80, particularly those from the third world), mentally ill, unemployed, slovenly, and violent. And much of the place is filthy, smelly, dilapidated (look at some of the roads and shopping centers, noisy, and crowded. I currently live in a suburban area of one of the boroughs, on the borderline of LI, and I am thankful for this, but am planning to get the heck out of here next year. It's a disgusting place!
Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out!

lol, it's funny how things change, the people that whiteflighted themselves out of NYC are now mostly living in areas considered less desirable than prime NYC

I highly doubt anyone who left during the white flight of the 60's - 70's care much about the current property values in Ridgewood. Those who left back then are either probably dead or too old to care.
