How about don’t turn the neighborhoods into shite holes to begin with and they won’t need to be gentrified.

You can call them progressive hipsters. It's ok, we know.



Or you call them childless newly weds that are early in their careers and can't afford the ridiculous housing prices in the great neighborhoods, but still want to live close to city centers and for whom school quality is not yet a concern?

Like my wife and I.

but you can hear the same complaints from natives in rural areas when city folk move there and try to change things.


because this guys behavior is completely normal and didnt warrant a call to the cops.

If I see anyone waiving something silver around, that kind might look like a gun, my first thought will not be "hold on guys, let's wait and see if he shoots anyone first. That might be a showerhead".

I can’t wait for the day (if ever) when this type of shite just gets shitcanned

No reposting, no news articles, no sharing, NOTHING... this is complete garbage. Imagine if this were written the same way, yet the colors were reversed

This shite is so fricking played out

I kinda agree with her. Get to know your neighbors so you are not fricking up their day with a police visit

Jesus! No wonder he got shot.. What would this bitch have said if someone on the street (not a cop) would have shot him? As in, some black dude who thought that dude was trying to kill him?

Suck a dick


If someone is waving something around in the street, and I have enough reason to believe it could be a gun, I’m doing SOMETHING about it.... more than likely I’d call the cops and if the rest of my family was home, I’d arm myself and prepare for the worst. Since you are a student, I’ll assume you don’t have a family to protect

So let me get this straight, calling the police for people acting like a dumb azz or being obnoxious or loud, is basically racist.

Then, if you are a poorer white person, living in the poorer areas of town is not ok because it’s disrupting black folks.

I see.

And let's be clear here.

He wasn't "waving it around".

He was holding it with a shooter's grip and pointing it at people's heads such that only the pipe end was visible extending from his hand.

noise complaints etc are a tool of a white supremacy


First of all,

Second, I lived in a predominantly black apartment complex and the noise problem is fricking ridiculous, as is the leaving trash everywhere on a regular basis problem. Knocking on your neighbor's door isn't going to do shite when they are blasting subwoofers at full volume everyday or shouting as they navigate the complex. They clearly give no fricks about other people's consideration. Also, here's a fricking thought, be respectful of people around you and eliminate your behaviors that piss off other people.

Call it what you will but I intend to never live in a predominantly black area again. It's an utterly miserable experience.

From the video, the 911 caller appears to own a laundromat.

So not only are white people moving into the neighborhood, they're apparently also opening up laundromats and taking jobs from the Asians. Because that's a thing white people do.

A black man shooting a black man? I'll let y'all guess how interesting the media would find that story.

Jesus. Thank you NYPD for cleaning up society. That frick deserved every bullet he got. Don’t go around pretending to shoot people with a realistic looking object then wonder why the cops kill your arse.

According to the New York Times, he was born in Jamaica (go figure) and came to the United States when he was 6, had worked as a welder (he was holding a part of a welding torch not a shower head) and he had a 15-year-old son.

So he was competent enough to be a welder and have a son, but too crazy for the cops to shoot him.
