NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — There were frightening moments in Times Square on Sunday evening.

A 21-year-old man, who was visiting the city with his family, was shot in the back, CBS2’s Kiran Dhillon reported.

There were large crowds of people nearby at the time and many had a front-row seat to the violence.

The victim is seen on video being treated by paramedics and taken away on a stretcher.

Police said the shooting happened after a group of five to six men got involved in a dispute near the Minskoff Theatre, which is home to “The Lion King,” near the corner of 45th Street and Seventh Avenue at around 5:15 p.m.

That’s when at least one of them, took out a gun and started firing, police said.

Sources told CBS2 a bullet ricocheted and hit a 21-year-old man from upstate New York who was visiting with his family and just walking by. The innocent bystander was struck in the back. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition.

I think that it's remarkable how disputes over the meaning of Kant's Categorical Imperative break out in so many places nationwide. I mean, c'mon, man. Is it an absolute, unconditional requirement that must be obeyed in all circumstances and is justified as an end in itself, or should one just say FIDO?

Naturally, violence was the only resort.

Mayne some social workers could stop in a talk to them about their feelings and ask they not do it again.

Changing the name/words of an old song “New York, New York, a Wonderfult Town” to “New York, New York, a Killing Town”.

It will no longer be called the “Big Apple” or even the more truthful “Rotten Apple”. It will be called “DUCK City” which is what you have to do to survive there, even if you are only a visitor.

Where is DeBlasio and that commie whore/theft wife of his? Where is AOC? Where are the commies on the City Council? Where is the city’s guiding Marxist political force, the “Working Families Party” (WFP)? Where is SCHUMER, Murphy, Murray, Malone, Sharpton (oh, if there’s no money to be made in it, he isn’t there). Where is the leader of the Clinton Criminal Organization/Foundation Hillary? After all she paid a lot to be the state’s senator. The least she could do was to say, “criminals, don’t use imported guns. Steal yours’ from within the state”.

The same for Bill Clinton. Guess he’s more interested in buying more batteries for his “Energizer Bunny” than helping the people who elected him President of the US.

Sen. Gillibrand. AWOL on crime as usual unless she can blame it on law abiding gun owners. There’s nothing worse than a “smartly dressed leftist bitch”.

Oh, and what’s that fool leftist Manhattan DA doing to reduce or stop street crime in his jurisdiction? Going after Guiliani and Trump’s private business records, that’s what.

Due to massive crime in Democrat run, ruled and ruined cities, we have cut out ever again visiting Baltimore, Philadelphia, NYC, no major city in New Jersey unless it is Mafia run, DC, Richmond, Va., etc.

We see crime destroying these places where we have lived and worked all our lives, all thanks to Marxist/racist/cowardly Critical Race Theory politicians, the media, teachers & professors, and Big Money Tech companies and cowardly other ones who would rather bow down to Red China and BLM than stand up for the Constitution, civility, a decent non-ideological educational system, only legal citizens voting in non-poisoned voting systems, and illegal immigrants getting more aid than pressed hardworking Americans of all kinds.

Excuse me if I left out anything else but my arthritis is killing my shoulders and arms so I have to slow down on my typing. But I still can and have “Locked and Loaded”.

If only New York City had gun control, this sort of thing wouldn’t happen. /s

got involved in a dispute near the Minskoff Theatre, which is home to “The Lion King,”

They must've had a fierce disagreement whether Hammerstein or Sondheim was their favorite lyricist.

This can’t be true… why, New York City is a veritable multicultural, progressive, liberal gun control paradise, where the entire Borg Collective lives in in happiness, peace, and harmony away from all the evil “ white supremacists”.

Yeah… and a monkey just flew outta my ass, too…

Some have suggested paying people to get vasectomies. Maybe that isn’t such a bad idea.

I don't understand why anyone has any expectations that Manhattan, New York, will be anything different from:
-Atlantic City
-Baltimore
-Bridgeport
-Chicago
-Cincinnati
-Dayton
-Detroit
-Erie
-Ferguson
-Flint
-Minneapolis
-Newark
-Oakland
-Philadelphia
-St. Louis
-Trenton
-Washington DC
-etc.

Forget the marketing to tourists. Forget the propaganda about what "it used to be". It has been a hive of scum and villainy since before this country was formed.
