...and people say pot is a 'victimless' crime.

[Avalon Memories]

Seems to me the police union guy was blaming the victim.

[PGR88]

Things in the mainstream media are never quite what they seem.

[Gay State Conservative]

On the one hand it is,IMO,very,*very* unwise for a young woman to be roaming the streets of NYC at midnight...particularly alone. But,OTOH,that doesn't mean that such a young woman is fair game for murder.

A kid..her first time away from home...her parents should have had a *long* talk with her before she left.

[Paladin2]

NYC doesn’t have approved medicinal outlets?

[Magic Fingers]

The crime is robbery and murder.

[Former Proud Canadian]

“What I am understanding is that [Majors] was in the park to buy marijuana,”

So what? It doesn't matter why she was there. Does that make it less of a crime?

[shelterguy]

It is not good for a young white female to be alone at midnight almost anywhere let alone a bad part of the city.

But it doe not lessen the horrible crime committed by these thugs.

[miss marmelstein]

If true, she’s dumber than I thought. There are lots of ways to get pot than go to a city park after dark.

[Truthoverpower]

This is why is should be legal and you can just go into a store and buy it

[Tailback]

If pot was legal she wouldn’t be dead, would she?

[Captain Peter Blood]

What she was doing is irrelevant to her killing by these savages.

[bigbob]

It’ll soon be legal everywhere so look for the crime rate to go down...

[montag813]

My son has a friend in the Yale freshman dorm.

He said the kids literally ORDER weed over SnapChat and go out to the car to get it, like UberEats.

He can't believe that some WASPy bumpkin from Charlottesville went into one of the most dangerous parks in NYC to get weed, when any number of guys in her dorm would have gladly gotten it for her, if only in hopes of getting a date.

[JohnBrowdie]

in before the pot people flood into this thread and use the dead girl as an argument for legalizing pot.

[arthurus]

So if she was out to buy some boo that exonerates the kiddies who killed her?

[wardaddy]

You need to read more about the whole deal Bob before piping off

These kids had been a menace in south central Harlem which is fairly gentrified now for some time and store owners complained

Many young whites live now where she was killed

Morningside park is a very vertical park dropping down from One block east of Amsterdam ave and Columbia and St Luke’s to Manhattan ave in Harlem

110th street is the southern border

Let’s assume she did go into the park to buy some weed ....they don’t enforce weed laws there anymore btw....I’m sure folks do that all day everyday that’s not why she was killed

She could have been going to a Bodega

She had the misfortune of running into this gang of wannabe wildings

We have raised legions of naive young women simply ignorant of the dangers out there

Blame anything blame culture that squashes real think about black behavior and blame black illegitimacy

[ncalburt]

So the police union is leaking rumors in a robbery and murder case in which other suspects are at large !
Unreal .
what was the point here ?

Is DeBlasio and police looking for cover ?

The neighborhood had been overrun with feral ghetto savages for months and nothing was done .
Store owners and residents attacked and complained .
Crime had spiked .

So we smear the clueless dead college coed.

I hope her lefty Va Professor father keeps his trap shut and not blame Trump.

Your link does not have anything to do with story. Can you post the proper link?

[Let's Roll]

Who more likely to be carrying cash than a person looking to buy drugs.

Darwin award winner ‘O’ the day. Her powder puff existence or latent stupidity played a large part of this.
