This is crazy !! You are not safe in your own home, I live literally 4 blocks away and it's a quiet neighborhood,

[jamescagney]

Damn can’t even be safe in your own home

Imagine protesting for a registered sex offender but not for this.

[iamcedricpowell]

So sorry for their loss. This is what we should be talking about in our nation. Law and Order!!!

all three of her kids will miss her but my heart really aches for the 14 year old.

Put the mayor in jail to stop crime....

She looked out the window and got shot? That was no stray bullet. There is nothing in the path between the shooter and her that could have been the intended target unless he was shooting at a bird.

It's time to board up those windows with CEMENT or 14 gauge steel boards.

After 2 days I recall the same shit happened 30 years ago to my uncle in his rented apartment in midtown. Luckily no one was hurt, the bullet went through the window and struck a wall.

Those bangers have some aim, what are they cockeyed? if De Blasio is just gonna throw up the white flag to these criminals then he should at least offer them shooting lessons and range time. Maybe NYPD can give them some pointers

then at least things like this won’t happen..
