    The perpetrator was asked how he could stop violence in Crown Heights. The perp said he didn’t know, but he’d take a stab at it!

    Interfaith doesn’t have a Trauma Center!!!!

    Their ER is for medical Illnesses such as strokes, not for trauma injuries! maybe the medics wanted to finish their shift early so they took him around the corner so they could get on with their day
