guess I was right

I spoke with a cop about crime during West indian pay parade. He said it was like a war zone. Constant sexual harrasment drug use, oh and plenty of violent crimes. 17 shooting at the kick off party, 4 dead. While speeking with this gentleman and received a radio call for a shooting and a stabbing. I hope nobody is surprised that this wasnt on the news. Yuppies would not move into our great neighborhood if they knew how much crime really went on.

  • There was only one murder reported that I know of.

    Is your point that for a few days per year around Labor Day there is extra crime, and people wouldn't move here if they knew that? Prior to moving here a woman was murdered walking on Park Place, and the week I moved here a cop was stabbed across the street from my apartment. I still moved here. Crime exists in every neighborhood in New York as far as I can tell, and white people still live here.

    So ... not getting your point.

    Dear Mr./Ms. Guest
    As you are so aware of the dangers I am a little surprised you continue to live here.
    I have lived here twenty one years and have raised a family in PH and we have found a little common sense will remove most of your exposure to crime. The West Indian Day Parade is less rowdy than it used to be and some neighborhood people just go away for the day. Or you can stay and enjoy it - your choice.

  • firts a man i skoke with was more that just a cop, he is a friend and has no reason to lie to me. Second, yes there is a rise in crime around labor day, but the rest of the year crime is not as low as people may believe. It doesnt surprise me that the press doesnt report crimes in our neighborhood . If they did prices of homes would drop. SOME people would choose to live somewhere else and "GREAT" mayor would not look SO GREAT.
    think about it.

    According to urbandictionary.com, the word "skoke" is defined as:
    1. Skoke:
    A pop-punk, punk or ska band based in MoCo that works hard to get gigs.
    Colin: Hey are you going to that band's Skoke show?
    Jesse: Yeah man, they're phat.

    Okay, but what's a "firts"? Looks like a scary combination between "flirt" and "fist". :?: :?:
  • Okay, but what's a "firts"? Looks like a scary combination between "flirt" and "fist". :?: :?:
    I'm not sure, but it might be the plural of either of these two words:
    1. firt
    Unit of measure dealing with moles of cucumbers
    I'd like to buy 3 firts, please.

    2. Firt
    A smell that is just unknown. Some say it is the smell of dirty feet and dirt. Others say it is the smell of guilt.
    It smells like firt in here. You smell like firt.
