Paterson "Bombshell" Just PG-13?
One man was killed and several injured in two separate shootings that occurred on the same block in East New York yesterday. 21-year-old Donovan Glen died after being shot in the head when some unwanted guests crashed a Friday night party on Atkins Avenue. Glen had an 18-month old daughter and was described by friends as someone who spent most of his time "at home, not on the street." 21-year-old Kendall Jones was also injured in the shooting at 2 a.m. Saturday. Ray Kelly told reporters, "It was a birthday party and going back to college party, and people tried to crash the party and that's where the trouble started." Then yesterday afternoon just down the block on Atkins, three more men were shot. All were injured with non-life threatening injuries and treated at Brookdale Hospital. A neighbor told the Daily News, "I think it was retaliation, but I don't know. It's like gunshot avenue over here."

East. New. York. Enough said. Wanna die? Go there. Wanna live. Find a way out.
We need to have roadblocks at all the highways that enter New York. Do random checks of all vehicles entering the state, especially from the south. Why is it nobody ever questions how these animals get the guns? Why is it assumed that guns are a part of our everyday lives? Where is the initiative to stop this needless slaughter? I'd vote for someone who came out with a BIG reward for gun reporting and promised big time jail time for anybody with an unlicensed gun. And start looking for them, not just reacting when the shootings happen.
