Would that happen in today's racial climate?

No one need speculate, New York would be burned to the ground, de Blasio would be there with a torch leading the riots.

Bernard Goetz's house would be burned to the ground

Gov. Cuomo would jump in front of a microphone and blame white supremacy.

leaving one of the victims, Darrell Cabey, paralyzed and brain damaged,

I thought by definition four on one was proof of brain damage before the incident.

John Lott says, “More guns Less crime “
I say if we had more Bernard Goetz we wouldn’t have the crime problems we have now.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

DeBlasio is a POS.

He is so far up his wife’s nasty butt and is going to make America pay for past sins by destroying one of the greatest cities in the world.

Goetz is an American hero.

Goetz stood trial and confessed to the preemptive shooting, leaving one of the victims, Darrell Cabey, paralyzed and brain damaged, but a jury acquitted Goetz despite his confession, finding him guilty only of illegal weapons possession.

Sadly the jury was less wise than they should have been, ...

they should have acquitted Goetz on ALL charges and lectured the cops for not returning his firearm to him.

Those jurors will be sacrificed to the Marxist Prog BLM pets if they are unwise enough to be still living in New York today.

My favorite Goetz line was “You don’t look so bad...” BAM

Bernard Goetz has been inducted into the Charles Bronson Hall of Fame as a lifetime member.

Barry? Troy? Darrell? James? A different world.

Crime in New York City was so bad back then that the Propaganda Media couldn't pretend it wasn't.

Bernie Goetz was acquitted by a jury. It was the corrupt anti-Constitutional rights prosecutor who pushed for charges.

Politicians and government workers, including police brass, in mass transit served areas need to be forced to use the same mass transit they suffer on the tax paying victims.

The black community wanted Goetz to walk. That was the scuttlebutt and I never found out what their reasoning was.

You know that the racial racketeers would say "if it were a black man who shot at whites on the train, the black person would have been sent to jail for life.

Nope.

Heard of Austin Weekes?

Not only did he feel threatened, he killed one of the adversaries. Got off, no jail time.
