Shooters on scooters, again.

Ever wonder why these incidents are not called "Mass Shootings" by the Media and blasted 24/7 by CNN and FOX? I guess Mass shootings only happen in certain places while inner city lives don't matter.

Anyways... This is more normal stuff I guess, nothing to be concerned about. Go about your day folks!

Even though Rudolph Giuliani has turned into an absolute ****-house kook, I miss the days when he was mayor. We need the "stop and frisk" program back. -- Those were the days.

If you look back to when stop and frisk was being stopped, those few of us on this forum were upset because we KNEW this was the future of NYC. We weren't racist, we just wanted to preserve the low crime we all worked hard to achieve. This was the inevitable outcome and it happened.

Are all of these shootings and murder worth saving a handful of people from being "Wrongfully stopped and frisked"? You tell me.

Not just a handful. As a Black Man I'm screwed either way. Either I get falsely accused or shot.

Either way this doesn't mean police should be stopping and frisking hard working Latinos in Jackson Heights, all because of a few bad apples.

Nobody wants an unwarranted criminal record and to be shanked in prison in exchange for not getting shot on the block.

How many times have you been shot by police while you were following orders and respecting authority?

There have been literally billions of interactions between civilians and police officers over the last 50 years and probably fewer than a few dozen instances of this occurring.

See that's the problem, he/she thinks there is a "Police killing black people for no reason" epidemic. Because that's what everyone tells him/her.

But if they were to look up actual statistics they wouldn't believe the low number, because that's not what they have been told. So they continue to believe the lie.

The REAL epidemic is black/brown people killing black/brown people. DAILY.
