Too many cowards in these streets with guns
@biggiecheeses I agree
Examples need to be made out of these criminals, damn when I was younger you'd be doing crazy time if caught with a loaded burner now you come out the next day no bond. We need to do better NYC.
@Bronxbully79 so true
I feel so sorry for my kids and innocent people living around here and having to deal with cowardice shit. The man who got shot and his family I’m sorry t the justice system allows murderers and felony level criminals to menace our streets with no consequences.
@planetgonemad Na what ? Was it gang related ?
Why can’t people just fight like back in the day. Ppl don’t got hands anymore? What’s happening?!? Find the Vaseline and shoot the ones man. Shooting in broad daylight. Lord!
These clowns don't value life, so they should be judged with that same energy when caught. Wanna be a tough guy but cry and plead for mercy after where they do that at.
