"Police said the parade will be promptly shut down at 5:30 p.m. β€” a decision made after six people were shot during last year’s festivities, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said."

Well how's a guy supposed to celebrate West Indian American Day without stabbing MFers in the neck?.....it just ain't right.

Diversity is our strength. Keep repeating that and overlook the cess poll this has created.

To be considered truly successful, all-black events — parades, picnics, funerals — need at least one or two shootings or stabbings.

Two good comments from the link:

Stab wounds and gunshot wounds are expensive. 99% of the suspects and victims don’t have private health insurance. This means the good taxpayers of NY get to foot the bill. My guess: this parade costs taxpayers $1,800,000 in medical bills.

Now we know why health insurance for actual citizens who have actual jobs is over a $1,000 per month and doesn’t cover anything at all.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Sigh. What can be done to fix this mess? Lots of things, in theory. But practically, nothing at all. So I guess all we can do is watch the system collapse.

That watching is best done from a rural area.

Any kind of “Cultural Day” that says anything other than a celebration of American, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Scandinavian, Acadian, British, or German culture is something I go out of my way to avoid at all costs.

Chaotic NYC is imploding.
There will be more and who knows what what will happen when the 9/11 ceremonies start.

“... stabbed in the neck and a 36-year-old was stabbed in the face...”

But, really they were all stabbed in ‘the Crown’.

This random violence has been the pattern at each of NY’s West Indian American Day for years. Every following year, I’ always surprised that they’re allowing another one to proceed. At very least, this group (West Indians) need to police and monitor their own people more closely.

A critical mass event. Put enough together in one place and ... BOOM.

“Three men were stabbed in Crown Heights, Brooklyn early Monday morning β€” just before the notoriously violent West Indian American Day parade was set to kick off...”


Only three stabbed out of hundreds or thousands before it started? So that makes it a ‘mostly peaceful’ parade. /s
