<description>&lt;p&gt;Now I know you&apos;re lying. New Yorkers don&apos;t fear God.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;when I meant good aim, I meant it that this time a whitey was shot. not marksmanship, though it could mean that with the NYPD.
and you can wait till your dying breath, I&apos;m a God Fearing, Law Abiding New Yorker. Like Rev. Al Sharpton, you can try all you want, I&apos;m still here.

<description>&lt;p&gt;Where&apos;s your &quot;great aim&quot; now, JacqueMehoff? Three shots, not one. I&apos;m still waiting for the inevitable NY Post story about the gun nut with a Gothamist account who was shot by police as he went Waco on them. They&apos;ll report his final words were &quot;From my cold, dead ha...&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;The jeweler was killed in what the FBI thinks may have been a FBI hit??????????  What?????  C&apos;mon Jen.

Read the Daily News story this morning for a good take on it.  My feeling is that he was filled with guilt for having set up his best friend for a mob hit and that drove him over the edge.  His family claimed that it was a random killing and the cops dogging him over his possible involvement in his friend&apos;s murder is what made him nuts, but that doesn&apos;t sound right.

Then again, the family also said the cops overreacted by shooting him when he in fact shot eight times at the police.  They said that the cops put his wife&apos;s life in danger (she was crouching next to him in the car when he was shot, trying to grab the car keys away) when in fact the passenger&apos;s window near her was the only window that wasn&apos;t shot out.  And their attorney says that the nutjob didn&apos;t shoot at all when he actually  fired eight times.  So they don&apos;t have a whole lot of credibility.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
