btw what you say’d about the media i think by searching the internet you can get more brainwashed

Unfortunate Circumstances?
June 13, 2013 12:41 am

Really? That seems to be the excuse for every black person that commits a crime against a Jew in Crown Heights (and the statistics are horrific). Have you taken a good look around you at many of the individuals and families in this community? This is not a wealthy community and there are people who are literally struggling to survive. They are not stealing cell phones. And they are certainly not randomly beating up people and damaging cars for no reason. If you feel bad for the ‘unfortunately circumstanced’ criminals who are terrorizing anyone and everyone who is a JEW… Read more »

June 13, 2013 12:30 am

We know what we are dealing with. This is nothing new. Maybe making public – to major newspapers or to government officials and senators – a log of all of these incidents over the past ten years and how the police handled or didn’t handle each one might bring in some outside assistance. But I suspect that our main source of protection will have to come from our own community, no one else. This is already happening to some extent but will have to be upped. With both the criminals and the police against or indifferent to the welfare of… Read more »

Why don’t you google and find the statistics. I hope the media hasn’t brainwash you too.

Excellent point. During the dark days of the Dinkins administration in the 80’s black “activists” organized protests against Korean store owners in Brooklyn with heinous, racist chants of “Korean merchants, watch their eyes, bloodsuckers, they suck our blood, they rip us off…” The children of those Korean merchants are now professionals, doctors, lawyers etc. I’m sure many of the children and grandchildren of those racist black protestors are now either in jail or on the street committing crimes. It’s not about RACE, it’s about CULTURE or the lack thereof. They teach their children that their unfortunate circumstances are everyone’s fault… Read more »

You know they are not the biggest recipients of welfare do you? White people are. There population far exceeds blacks. And you act like government don’t support Jews.

With all due respect, if our neighbors in CH want us to have a better opinion of them, they can stop stealing bikes, tossing trash on the street, hollering all night, and painting their names on walls. It’s not that hard.

People used to treat the Irish as second-class criminals in the 1900’s; after a couple generations, the stereotype wore off since it just wasn’t true. However, for some reason, the stereotypes regarding the population around us in CH seem to stick around year after year…

you'll just have to live with it

they cant lock up the whole Brooklyn even though we all know that a lot of blacks are ganovim (it would cost too much money to keep them all in prison even though the government already fully supports them (foodstamps etc.))
so what we have to know that they will never change, and just lock your doors and watch your backs
good luck

You know when someone white commits a crime they won’t report it right away. But everybody else they will mention right away. Why is that? Last example Santa Monica shooting. And before that Newtown, Aurora etc. There is a pattern I notice when someone white commits a crime.

#7, "Why mention race at all?"
June 12, 2013 1:47 pm

Maybe it’s worh mentioning because members of the Jewish community are victimized by young blacks ON A DAILY BASIS, including hate crimes against our children. If a white supremist commits a hate crime against a black person would it be worth mentioning that the perp was a white supremist or would that too be an expression of racism? Give me a break. Perhaps we should reach out to the hoodlums, sit with them in a circle, hold hands and sing Kumbaya together like “old civil rights warriors”, that would certainly help lessen the “divisiveness and stereotyping”… Certainly there are “important… Read more »

The fact that he is black like choclate is irrelevant even whites steal . I remember in the 1920s that one time a white was convicted of stealing someone leafy taffy

Good Morning class,

Today we will learn that it’s okay to steal bikes.

Go ahead and steal a bike. If you don’t get caught, great! you now have a new bike. If you do get caught ,you’ll have a short pep talk with the officer and then you get a chance to try it again tomorrow.

Please be prepared for the final tomorrow on how to get away with Crime 101

Sincerely,
Your Teacher,

Why is the color of thr youths’ skin mentioned at all? In my opinion this furthers divisiveness and stereotyping. Also, how old we’re the youths? Do their parents condone or condemn the boys’ behavior? There seem to be some important unanswered questions here.

What happened to juvenile detention??

Our criminal justice system here in America is self-serving. It copies our behavior in Crown Heights, were there is a lack of concern for the next one.
That’s why the penalties (For non-juveniles) is so lenient. Crime makes money.

I don't get why you are suprised

You make as if you expected anything else to happen. Some people are just so naive.
