Stray bullets? As in peaceful protesting bullets?

Can Americans protest with bullets?

As long as they wear masks you say?

Actually, I pray for the couple and I won’t hold them responsible. You see, it’s Rudy’s fault. He turned NYC into a place where one could safely walk the streets and this young couple had never experienced the neighborhoods where “stray” bullets had once been the norm.

Back in the early 80s visiting a relative South of Houston Street (SOHO) before it was trendy, about 6 blocks from the Village, I was not allowed to go out and walk by myself anywhere without being accompanied by residents who were ‘known’. Once while walking towards the Village, a block of concrete exploded behind us. Someone from a floor above had discharged a handgun onto the sidewalk. I was told to walk calmly but pick up the pace.
