    I hope they put more cops on the streets since Halloween is a day of mischief, and the kids have the excuse to wear masks.

    Why is it necessary to put the race of the attackers? It doesn’t make it any easier to tell who the attacker was.

  • Curious

    Berel,

    Yes, it’s the reality that the attacker was black. But how is that information helpful? A street name tells you where an attack took place and tells you to perhaps be aware on that street. Identifying race just seems to encourage you to be afraid of ALL black people. Again, how is that helpful?

    • Berel

      It’s important to know the reality to form a proper picture of the general situation and cultural trends that obtain where we live. Nobody worries about ALL black people. We worry about the same black people, decent black people worry about.

      I also wanted to know the make up the animal in Pittsburgh and I don’t now worry about ALL white people.

      But most importantly, we don’t subscribe to your religion. ‘Racism’ is about as far down on our list of concerns as is the closing of the old Ice Cream store on Kingston Ave where you had to wait on line for ever.

      We have our code of law and our code of ethics and aside from a rigidly defined set of religious truths, we don’t hold of thought-crime as an institution.

    Bring back Stop and Frisk for 25 yr old and younger males in high crime zip codes. Safety first.

      Wow. What an amazingly racist statement to make on a post about groups being unfairly targeted. The irony and hypocrisy are astounding.

  • Anon E Mouse

    Is it really necessary to put the gender of the assailant since this makes males look bad.

    Again, is it necessary to put in the type of crime since it is all too easy to stereotype certain groups with certain types of crime.

    In the future, how hard is it for Crownheights.info to report like so :

    “On 3 pm, on Some Street in Brooklyn, a Person committed a crime against another Person”.
