There is no better way to teach a lesson than to take away when one has wronged.
A time-out? Please. Just cut back on the number of hours and get rid of J'Ouvert. If people can't act like they have any sense then no festival. Keep the parade during day hours only. If that doesn't work then get rid of the parade too. It's absurd when people can't even to a parade without being shot and killed. Same deal with the St. Patrick's Day parade. Too many drunks around causing problems up and down the East Side.

Easy. The incessant need of so called "liberals" to show their need to imply that blacks are savages. When I point this out I become a "black militant".

St Pats and New Years celebration have brought their own share of violence that MTA and others have had to devise strategies to deal with it.

Of course these are drunken white men so nothing is made of this.

So it’s all one big coincidence...

After all, he created the thread.

And if you actually looked at the link, you can see that it’s from LAST YEAR.
In fact Jouvert starts at 6AM.

Every time I come here I see the same racist posters ranting BS about blacks on this site?

Why is this? Don't they have anything else to do with their lives?

No we have better things to do with our time. But endless "black hating" seems to be a critical activity of some posters here.

I already told them to go to Boise if the presence of blacks bothers them.

Let us look at it this way. If a stabbing occurs 5 blocks away from Jouvert or the parade and occurred 2 hours before these events are blamed.

So using this criteria I am sure that someone can also find ways of making these events look dangerous.

But let us face this. Describing 2 million blacks as a bunch of savage goons is more in line with what many posters here wish.

And you know that everyone involved in violence was born in Jamaica, Trinidad, Guyana, Haiti, or Grenada, to name the nationals of Caribbean countries most involved.

One year there was violence at the parade and the perps had Spanish last names. I don't recall any West Indians screaming that "Spanish people should stay away".
