Looks like their gun control is working well down there. You can't even own a firearm in the 5 boroughs without a permit, and every time you get a new firearm it needs to be registered with the local police department. You can't even get a handgun permit down there unless you are a LEO, and even then you can't carry unless you are on duty. I don't think there are any stricter firearm regulations anywhere in the country and somehow people are still shooting each other. My heart and prayers go out to the victims. Thank god we don't have to spend $$$ on a trial.
To the contrary... if the police indeed shot some of those injured... you can bet there will be some litigation to be paid for. I don't think this one is over by a long shot. Definitely... prayers sent out to the victims and the deceased victim's families.
Has any one thought about just how "down" one must be to go to bed knowing tomorrow is "it" I'm done. This life sucks and I'm going out and the people that put me are going too. Hopelessness, alone,distraught, I don't know.
The twit Blomberg is on the news running his pie hole. Tomorrow New York city will ban side walks, so in the future no one can get shot on one.
Hurting people... hurt people... and a cycle of new hurt begins. And many people that we pass every day are guilty of the same behavior, only to a lesser degree. Someone, succeeds at something special... they get torn down by someone's pathetic jealousy. One earns a promotion, another is passed over for the same promotion. One racer wins Gold... another's race ends in obscurity... and the cycle repeats itself again and again. People who believe "this" is all there is... and "this" sucks, as you put it, just can't seem to deal with one more day of suckage, I guess, but then what? Make it "suck" for others? What a terrible plan, true, but in the end, hurting people tend to hurt people... they're all around us. Maybe we should look for them... who knows what one act of unselfish kindness or one kind word to that hopeless hurting person may change?
I would like to see this mans cell phone, did he have a friend, family or any one at all that cared. A dog, cat,or favorite bar?
