Thirty-nine shot in New York City in last two days

Throughout this year, and especially on the major weekend holidays, black mayhem, largely against whites and other non-blacks, has been erupting at parks, beaches, and vacations spots across the eastern half of the U.S. This Labor Day weekend, New York City is experiencing an exceptional amount of black violence, but it seems to be directed at blacks rather than whites. The New York Post reports today that a total of 39 people have been shot in the city since Saturday morning. The worst incident was the shooting of eight persons including three children at an “the out-of-control house party” in the Bronx (described as a “garden party” in the Daily Mail) at 3:40 a.m. Saturday. Yep, in some neighborhoods in this country, children “party” at 3 a.m. “The violence erupted after one man crashed the gig and then got into an argument with another male partygoer, sources said. Each opened fire on the other, spraying the panicked crowd with at least 21 bullets.”

Is the implosion of underclass black America the external equivalent—the objective correlative—of the implosion of the Obama presidency?

Here’s the Post article:

Gunfire erupted today near the massive West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn—not far from Mayor Bloomberg was marching—as the entire city reeled from a epidemic of shootings over the past two days.

By noon today, a total of 39 people had been shot in the city since Saturday morning, authorities said.

At just before noon, a gunman fired into the air several blocks away from the start of the West Indian Day Parade route in Crown Heights—not hitting anyone—before hopping into a cab and fleeing.

Bloomberg, who has decried the recent spate of gun violence, had just started marching.

Witnesses said the unidentified gunman got out of the car at E. 94th and Winthrop streets, and then ran off after tossing his gun. Cops caught him down the street after Macing him.

Police then washed the Mace out of his eyes with a carton of milk.

The frightening incident came as people around New York City continued being shot in a frenzy that began early Saturday morning.

Twenty five people had been shot as of 6 a.m. Sunday—including three kids at a house party-turned-shooting gallery in The Bronx early Sunday.

By early Monday morning, seven more people were shot in four separate incidents in Brooklyn—one of them fatally.

By noon, another seven people had been shot—bringing the shocking toll to 39 people injured by gunfire since Saturday morning.

In one incident today Tyrief Gary, 18, was fatally shot to the chest at 12:45 a.m. at 109 E. 54th Street in Brooklyn. Three others were shot during the same incident, all of whom were in stable condition at Kings County Hospital.

Police sources believe that three of the shootings this morning are connected to the pre-dawn festivities leading up to today’s West Indian Day parade.

The traditional celebration, known as J’ouvert, has been the scene of numerous shootings in the past, although cops have had it under control in recent years.

Separately, another man was shot in the chest today at 4:24 a.m. at Linden Blvd and Nostrand Avenue. He was in critical condition at Kings County Hospital

At 6 a.m., a man was shot in the leg in a McDonald’s at 57 Empire Blvd in Brooklyn, and was in stable condition at the same hospital.

At 11:48 a.m., a 41-year-old man was shot at 7th Avenue and W. 127th St. in Manhattan and taken to Harlem Hospital, where his condition was unknown. A 50-year-old man was in custody and being questioned.

Calling the chilling violence “just unconscionable,” Bloomberg demanded that the feds step up their efforts to get illegal weapons off the streets.

“We just cannot continue to have these guns in the hands of kids who don’t understand the value of human life,” he said.

The crime wave mirrored the city’s drug-fueled epidemic of violence in the 1980s and ’90s, police sources said.

“Last night was unbelievable,” one source said yesterday. “I can’t remember a couple of hours like these since the days of crack.” [LA replies: Not a “police department source.” Not a “source in the Bloomberg adminstration.” Just a “source.” Such an specified “source” could be anyone in the city.]

A total of eight people alone were shot at 3:40 a.m. at the out-of-control house party on East 221st Street in The Bronx Sunday, authorities said.

The violence erupted after one man crashed the gig and then got into an argument with another male partygoer, sources said. Each opened fire on the other, spraying the panicked crowd with at least 21 bullets.

“I heard three shots, then a bunch more,” said a neighbor who asked that her name be withheld. “Then I heard people going over the fence and women screaming.”

Sabine Walters, 48—whose daughter threw the “liquor barbecue” bash and whose 11-year-old son, Shaquan, was hit in the right calf by a bullet—said, “I looked around, screaming, ‘Where’s my son? Where’s my son?’ “

Shaquan, his leg wrapped in white gauze, looked terrified as he whimpered to a reporter from his bed at Jacobi Hospital, “My foot hurts.”

Police apprehended one unidentified man suspected in the shooting, and were questioning him today.

They said they still are searching for 17-year-old Oneil DaSilva, of Mount Vernon, in connection with the shooting. His rap sheet includes nine arrests for attempted murder, third-degree assault and burglary.

The other two wounded kids were a 13-year-old girl hit in the left thigh and a 14-year-old girl shot in the back. Both were in stable condition last night.

Five men were also shot at the party. A 24-year-old victim, shot twice in the chest, was in critical condition.

The most gravely injured victim in the other shootings was a man shot on East 93rd Street in Brooklyn. He later died.

I find the idea that Obama and black America are imploding at the same time to be fascinating. Is this the collective unconscious of the black world at work? Are the wildings, shootings, and flash mobs some sort of unspoken admittance that the whole sham of Black Run America is no longer emotionally sustainable for them? Right now the media is filled with images of black CEOs, black brain surgeons, happy black families in million dollar houses etc. It will be interesting to watch how this imagery begins to fade out. A few less magazine covers here, a new ad campaign theme there. The fact that this will happen unconsciously by some unspoken consent will make it especially edifying to watch.
