Was this the one where they were waiving Palestein flags? Or is there so much demonkkkratic anarchy that there's more than one of these going on at once. |

There was a brawl featuring young'uns throwing hands before opening up with semi-automatic weapons in sleepy old Iowa City.Did you hear about the quote targeted execution close quote with six wounded last week at the Chick-fil-A in Union Township near the border of Newark? I am just going to go ahead and assume it was a set, possibly Grape Street Crip or the terrifying Peoples and Folk Nation, that came over from west Newark. That place is dangerous. The actors are still on the run. Really sad. |

I saw the youth in Iowa.Also heard about a takeover in Atlanta. one woman was trapped for 45 minutes and police couldn't respond. "Youth", just like gazans, have learned an important lesson everyone has been afraid of for years. "They can't arrest us all". The numbers make it a free for all now. |

Let's be clear: there were scores, maybe hundreds of people out there. And 1 Palestinian flag. That means this car meet was not a pro-Palestinian rally.Rather it was an act of Civil Disobedience. The exact same thing that happened not so long ago in Bayside and Whitestone. On various Maspeth area Facebook forums and from NYPD themselves, there has been different versions of police time response. Once the first car arrived, IDK what the innocents expected the cops to do? Take them all on? Of course hey don't want to be injured! Are they supposed to take their guns out and start shooting? Many of you would say yes! The bottom line is Maspeth/Ridgewood/Middle Village, the confines of the 104th, is a large area. Not many north/south thru streets available to move around. Only Fresh Pond Rd, Forest Ave., then 80th St. Most of the action is in Ridgewood so when stuff happens in Maspeth/Middle Village we're screwed. There are no patrols. When I drive around the area, very seldom do I see a patrol car because they are always busy answering and tied up with 311 and 911 calls for hours at a time. What is the percentage of cops on duty on the street answering these calls vs. the number who work in the precinct and never leave unless there is an extreme emergency? We will never get the answer from the Commanding Officer. This is the fault of how NYPD is set up, and not the cop on the street. Speaking of lack of patrols: all we have is red light and speed camera's. Never a cop pulling anyone over for a traffic violation. The interaction between a motorist and a cop with other motorists witnessing this is THE best deterrent for motorists to follow traffic laws and drive defensively. But we never see a cop pull anyone over for a violation anymore. Call 311 for a fire hydrant violation, and get a rext message answer that tells you that no violation has occurred yet the offender is even there. Look out the window and I see the offender is indeed still there. I can go on and on. Unnecessary horn blowing. According to NY State, horn blowing is for danger only, not because you're in a hurry and start leaning on the horn! Never enforced. Blocking intersections: state law is you don't block it if you can't clear it! Never enforced. Maspeth by the LIE, Hamilton Place over the LIE and Flushin Ave. from 61st St. to where it merges with Grand Ave. to the LIE is a disaster on most PM Rush Hours. No enforcement whatsoever. WE NEED COPS. Following Saturday night and fierce community opposition to IBX, our property values are plummeting along with For Sale Signs on houses about to go up very soon. |

Add Glendale to the mix too.Glendale is immediately east of Ridgewood, but the only way to get there is via Myrtle Ave. Narrow, congested, full of double parkers. |

I just said that this sort of anti-social behavior brings out that contingent. It's a bandwagon that low IQ types follow. Following Saturday night and fierce community opposition to IBX, our property values are plummeting along with For Sale Signs on houses about to go up very soon. Sounds like a good time to buy, especially with IBX coming. |

That area is annoying to drive through. Too bad the Queens-Interboro Expressway and Bushwick Expressway were never built. |

I wasn't pointing fingers at you. I was just making a general comment as a neighborhood resident about the issue.For IBX, lots of folks from Maspeth (I am not by the IBX), as much as they complian, could get good money for their homes near the tracks via eminent domain. I was told by my late father, that his sister got "evicted" years ago so the Seaford Oyster Bay Expy. could be constructed. She and her husband got much more than what the property was worth. |

I visit an old friend once a week who lives in Sheepshead Bay. It's a terrible trip by car.Either the always jammed BQE with it's 2 lanes and constant traffic in downtown Brooklyn or via Metropolian Ave.& Woodhaven Blvd. to the always congested Belt Pky. at Cross Bay Blvd. Either way I go or come home, 60 minutes is great time, but it can take me as much as 90 minutes. |

You're right about the lack of patrols. Cops are not nearly as visible as they used to be.In many places, they are watching on cameras now. Just sitting watching monitors and then responding to activity. I've heard NYPD has cameras everywhere and some cops sit in precincts watching then sending a patrol to respond. Overall, law enforcement wants fewer interactions with civilians these days. |

For those interested, this takeover is an example of the male hierarchy.These guys are not considered hot by women. They are short, average with non-descript physiques, and don't stand out in a crowd. So they do this. But they can act manly in this social circle and get laid with girls who orbit these men. You can bet there was backseat banging after this. |

That hill on 65th Place and 69th St uphill (that I had to walk my bike up) southbound IIRC was referred to as the Ridgewood Plateau. Have you ever heard of that? |

Firetrucks spraying water is very effective.A quick story: Back in the day, a stretch of the BQE from the GCP to Northern Blvd southbound was known as the Connecting Highway. On Friday and Saturday nights the locals would turn that stretch into a racetrack. It was serious business as there was a starter at an imaginary starting line and betting on the races went on. The track length was "bridge to bridge" (aka overpasses) then slam on the brakes for the 30th Ave exit or Northern Blvd if you were going faster than 80 mph. The "stands" where racing fans watched the races was an elevated service road that drew quite a crowd leaning on the railing. Sometimes there would be several racers lined up to back up traffic to the Triboro Bridge. The point of all this is to stop the races, the NYPD would get on bullhorns to disperse the crowds with threats of being locked up for disorderly conduct. FDNY would bring out the fire trucks and hose down that stretch of highway to stop the races. Worked like a charm. |

Even more life-threatening, as a kid, was riding down Eliot Avenue from Ridgewood to that intersection riding through on Eliot between Mount olivet cemetery and the Lutheran cemetery. I think there's a barrier there now but back then there was not. Back then I don't even know if there was a sidewalk |

He has a skinny neck and non-descript body. And he's ugly. I doubt anyone had a crush on him in high school or community college. Anyway, Eliot and 69 is the safest street corner in Queens because police are going to camp out there all the time. |
