Snitches get stitches. Judas went to Hell.
Banks are easy targets. They tell the tellers to just give the money no questions asked. I mean a guy in a wheelchair robbed a bank in Astoria a few months ago.
Yes so many bank robberies all the time, yet no physical or verbal response from NYPD nor banking officials on what they will do to counter this. Expect more and more robberies, no end in sight.
It’s these damn hipsters again!
Yaaaaaaaaasssssss
whats with all the bank robberies lately?? I used to hear about them on TV when I was a kid, in Queens it seems like its still 1970!
Dont these guys watch the news? these guys should be hackers, these guys are like the last of a dying breed.
isn’t this the 4th time this bank has been robbed since last year 2016 –
and yet no one will do anything to add more security. This is the story of so many banks. I almost feel they use lax security on purpose to claim more money stolen from insurance….
they say crack kill, my crack sell
this is terrible — homeless shelters are a couple of blocks away thanks JVB –
I love how we always blame the homeless shelters when something goes wrong, thanks JVB.
No sane person can honestly argue that the presence of a homeless shelter in a residential community presents no irreparable harm.
We need that wall.
Theres already a wall but its shitty. I think we need to get the Chinese to build a truly great beautiful wall. They know all the math and science to make it work.
Ken stop watching NFL and reading the sports news in the paper, try reading books and I don’t mean Disney books I mean history books, if you had another brain you’d be twice as stupid, you all ready have a wall, it’s made of shit inside your head
Have you ever thought it could be a Lefty posting to make Righty look bad?
Why would spending billions on a wall When 40 to 70% of illegal immigrants come in legally and over stay there visas. Also the dude is white.
Looks like a doctor. Check the hospitals.
