A series of overnight shootings across Brooklyn has left at least eight people wounded, according to police.
There was also one shots fired incident as well.
All of this happened in around three hours – and comes on the heels of failing NYC Socialist Mayor Bill DeBlasio pandering to the “Black Lives Matter” movement, and vowing to “defund the police”.
DeBlasio laid out the next wave of police reforms on Sunday, including shifting funds from the NYPD to youth and social services, in the aftermath of days of protests over the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
“The details will be worked out in the budget process in the weeks ahead. But I want people to understand that we are committed to shifting resources to ensure that the focus is on our young people,” de Blasio said. “I also will affirm we will only do it in a way that is certain to continue the city will be safe.”
The mayhem over night began at round 10:40 p.m. on Bristol Street in Brownsville.
Police said a 23-year-old woman, 17-year-old man, 35-year-old man and 50-year-old man were all shot. The female victim was seriously wounded, but the men suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
About 10 minutes later, two men were shot in the leg on Bainbridge Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant.
Police said the 27-year-old and 34-year-old’s injuries were also non-life-threatening.
Then shortly before 11, a 35-year-old man was shot in the back at the corner of Ditmas and Flatbush avenues in Flatbush. He was listed in stable condition.
Police said another man was shot in his leg and stomach around 2 a.m. near Avenue K and East 36th Street in Flatlands. His injuries were also non-life-threatening
So far, no arrests have been made in any of the incidents.
Anyone with information about the shootings is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477), or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). You can also submit a tip via their website or on Twitter, @NYPDTips. All calls are kept confidential.

Defund Police! OK.
Remove the police security detail for HizHonor and His family.
Remove his Police Transportation and let him drive his own car or biker, use public transportation or take a car service, Uber or Taxi.
We need to up the efforts to force the mayor out of office. He is a threat to our safety.
Bring back “stop and frisk”
who are you going to call
Once you get rid of police, you are rid of gun control laws (welcome to the early 19th century, before there were cops).
Since Jews have the right to bear arms (wasn’t necessarily the case prior to the 2nd amendment), we can manage.
If the goyim prefer anarchy, that is there right. If you are a good anarchist, a little illegality and disorder is tolerable.
The blue states will rapidly have their economy collapse, which is good since the people in the red states are nicer.
The chucklehead holding the Dump DeBlasio sign does not seem to realize that the New York City charter dumps all mayors after 2 terms. Yes, there was an exception for Bloomberg, but that could not possibly happen again. Or am I the chucklehead?
Defund DeBlablasio…
So as to put these shootings in context, can we please know how many of the shooters are suspected to me Blacks whose Lives Matter and how many of the victims were Blacks whose Lives Don’t Matter?

We need to get rid of this black loving idiot de blasio.
I guess those (presumably black) lives don’t matter?
Bill De Blasio wants to defund police. 🙁
Donald Trump previously proposed a huge budget cut to the one federal program that helps local police agencies hire officers. 🙁 🙁
Meanwhile, Joe Biden yesterday came out in strong opposition to defunding police.
And today, Bernie Sanders not only came out in opposition to defunding police, he called for better pay for police officers in order to attract better educated people to police careers!
Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders understand. Donald Trump and Bill De Blasio don’t.
charliehall, thank you for sharing with us DNC propaganda.

The blue states citizens will move to the red state and turn it purple
You can’t fix stupid
Pirkey Avos: Daven for peace of the government, for if not for fear of it each man would swallow his fellow alive.
Torah does not believe in Anarchy. We need to have a strong police force to protect us, and people who commit crimes need to be punished harshly. Otherwise we are forfeiting our safety and our lives. Anyone advocating weakening the police force is looking for an excuse to steal and commit violence without having to face the consequences.
