Unlikely, but the victim is in really bad condition. I did my due diligence, so at this point it's on the D.A.'s office should my victim die and Gascon fail to file charges.

A few pics from the assault….

Did he run into him? Assault with a deadly?

Assault with a deadly weapon (vehicle) is what the suspect(s) will be charged with.

The suspect drove away at a high rate of speed with the victim on the hood, stopped abruptly to cause the victim to go airborne approximately 15-20' before hitting the asphalt, and then hitting him as they fled the scene. The victim has a subdural hematoma, facial lacerations and some other injuries. The victim is in bad shape.

That victim isn't your graduation buddy that got shot, is he?

Not in the vehicular assault case.

He's not wrong. My station deals with multiple car jackings a day; today we had two (….one due to leaving a car running while unoccupied).

It's an offence in Ontario to leave a car running unattended under the HTA and most municipalities also have by-laws that prohibit idling your car for longer than 1 min. to reduce GHG emissions. That gets ignored a lot in the cold winter and very hot summer months with remote starters.

Crime is off the charts here. The car jackings are out of control. There were two a week apart within a mile of my house. Both were at gunpoint. There is no such thing as a good neighborhood anymore.

NYC is like the wild west. People randomly getting beat down, sucker punched and robbed. Dirtbags going into stores and doing smash and grabs; just taking what they want. I thought it was bad when I worked in NYC back in the early 80s. I just don't understand WTF has to happen before people wake up.

I think we are nearing a point of no return honestly.

I thought that they already WOKE up?

I'd invite you to move up here, but even in the sticks we have to deal with crackheads burning down our neighbor's house and killing him on occasion.

The only positive thing is that I'm pretty sure our town's speed limits went up 20 MPH for my DW and I, after spending days at the courthouse with half of the police department.....

[F30lolz]

Maybe we’ve reached the point that we need a Murf the Surf and a Sedan_Clan at every corner in America and even then it wouldn’t be enough. Just have to be like Jason Bourne no matter where you’re at.

By the way, I smell bacon and other pork products. Sorry for the corny joke, had to lighten up the mood here a bit.

While I have always admired your common sense, and grasp of reality my friend, I am afraid that you are a bit behind the curve here. Perhaps it's your youth and innate sense of optimism, but from my seat the decline from common civility and decency passed the tipping point years ago. Though I won't be around, I truly fear for the generations to come. Could be the wine talking, but that only accounts for the post. Reality can be a bitch. Stay low, run serpentine, and chose your shots wisely.

Youth? Innate optimism?
I'm not sure either apply to me…..at all. Lol! I'm certainly not young and I'm rarely optimistic about anything.


My comment was based on the rather sharp decline since the end of 2019. Sure, decline has been steady for a long time, but 2020 signified decline at rapid speeds.

While this isn't directly related to law enforcement, there is an indirect correlation to rising crime that will occur as this becomes worse (…triggering more law enforcement response; a response that will inundate department resources even more than they already are).

"Fox News won a court case by 'persuasively' arguing that no 'reasonable viewer' takes Tucker Carlson seriously".
Your video reminds me of when he kept getting destroyed by James Carville on CNN's crossfire (I was actually rooting for Tucker back then, what a dweeb).

"A federal judge in 2020 dismissed a lawsuit against Fox News after lawyers for the network argued that no "reasonable viewer" would take the network's primetime star Tucker Carlson seriously."

And no serious prosecutor would prosecute the Hildabeast for her flagrant violations of the law.

Tucker Carlson??
C'mon dude, you're jumping the shark with this one. I have plenty of respect for you...but,...Tucker Carlson,...as a voice of reason??

Classic Tucker.

[Sedan_Clan]

I appreciate that, but I want focus on what is being reported. Just because information that is verifiable comes from a source sone may not like doesn't mean the information itself is without merit. The things currently happening all over Europe are troubling.

[Tyga11]

The problem is there is 0 self accountability anymore. The homeless / drug addict problem is off the charts here in Phoenix. I can't even go to the Circle K anymore a block away from my house because it's too dangerous.

I'm on Next Door and half of the people want to make excuses for these people...let them into your house and feed them if you care so much. Once we have kids I'm moving to a lake town or somewhere more isolated.

If that's what you're implying, that's on you. The Jon Stewart video just showed how vulnerable Carlson is, when he is called out. Getting back to the topic that started it all, yes, things are bad everywhere, and they are only going to get worse. What is bad enough, is that no politician, either left or right, is going to fix any of it either.
