D-I-S-R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what that means to me.
I went to a gunfight, but everyone started rapping.
Thankfully New York City has some of the toughest gun laws in the country.
It’s almost impossible for an everyday citizen to get a permit to own a pistol.
That keeps citizens from being armed and shooting back at thugs like these, possibly injuring one of them.

You don't mess with the Bach gang. They use canons.
It's not the name of the city that's the hazard. It's the foreign gang-bangers that populate certain parts.
I never liked concerts where the concert goers shoot at each other. It just ruins the ambiance of the evening.
Well played, sir!
Gangbangers were well-dressed back then.
Bach Street Boys?
Oh yes, that would explain it!
It’s the NRA’s fault.
The victims should sue the Gun manufacturers.
ROFL
I roadies for a band that performed in this building in 1981. At the time it was owned by a social club organization (apparently still owned by the Polish Army Veterans of America) who rented it out for events etc. My gig was three bands including the Sick F*cks who I was roading for. The place holds 1,000 plus people.
Now that was funny how are you sir?
Savages...
Good thanks! :-)
My understanding is that it was a dispute over the ontological and epistemological implications of Kant’s categorical imperative. Naturally, violence was the only resort.
Chop chop chop up your mother?
As many as two or three victims in New York?
Chicago sneers at you in contempt. Amateurs.
Been there and back in the bad old days too. Oh, but now DeBlasio wants the bad old days back again. Good luck with that schmuck.
Black rap. I am surprised so few were shot.
