In poor New York neighborhoods, residents ask: Where are the police?

(Reuters) - On the sidewalk of a public housing development in Brooklyn, New York notorious for gang violence and drug activity, the words "Fascist pig, go home!" in black spray paint are fading but still legible. These are the Marcy Houses, 27 brick H-block buildings, each six stories high, that are home to nearly 4,300 people, many of whom are black or Latino. The rapper Jay-Z, who grew up in the complex, described Marcy as "a block away from hell," the place where "news cameras never come," in a song called "Where I'm From."

You can't have it both ways folks. For every action, there is a reaction. Now you should be delighted the cops are out of the way and life can be peaceful and calm. Wait? Its not? Who knew???

Make Sharpton go there to keep the peace.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Just shout "Hands up! Don't shoot!"

The bad guys will obey.

[I want the USA back]

If they would respect the police and cooperate with them, there would be less crime.

This is BS. People are not going to be missing the cops in their neighborhoods. Not til they need them anyway.

[ConservativeMind]

Silly person, they are clearing out to allow control by Muslim Sharia law enforcers.

New York is the new Paris, don’t you know?

[RnMomof7]

Be careful what you ask for...you just might get it

[TChad]

Will this change their votes from (D) to (R)?

[The_Media_never_lie]

The cops can’t breathe.

You can’t have it both ways

Problem is, the folks who want and need cops, aren’t the ones complaining. See Nixon’s “Silent Majority”. Too bad, for the good folks.

many of whom are black or Latino.

Why yes, I'm sure MANY are. I'm sure MANY are also single young women and/or their menagerie of multi-(absent)fathered children.

Geez, what a flustercuck this country has become.

[toothfairy86]

Jay-Z should provide a private security force for the ‘Hood.

[dforest]

Looks like the commenters over there have little pity for the cop haters who wonder where the cops are at.

[ImNotLying]

The cops will be there with the coroner to do an after action report. Have a nice day.

[willywill]

“news cameras never come,”

they don’t come, not for the reason jay z meant, but because the Marxists in the media don’t want us to see the disaster our tax dollars are paying for.

[dfwgator]

Silly person, they are clearing out to allow control by Muslim Sharia law enforcers.

That's exactly what is happening.
Enjoy folks, you deserve it.

[SunkenCiv]

Build a fence around the SOB and let no one in or out. The problems will solve themselves.

[dowcaet]

Now they realize the importance of having police presence in their neighborhoods? They’ve spent the last month condemning them. I guess these poor New York City neighborhoods are beginning to realize who the real BAD GUYS are.

[molson209]

are these the same neighborhoods that didn’t want the Police ?

[bray]

Call Sharpton, he will protect you. The cops will show up with a piece of chalk and a hearse.

Pray America is waking up
