We're the Only Ones in Haste Enough

Ramarley Graham was chased into his parents’ Williamsbridge apartment on Feb. 2 by officers from the NYPD’s street narcotics enforcement unit after the cops spotted what appeared to be a gun.

After bursting into the apartment, Officer Richard Haste confronted the teen in the bathroom and fired the fatal shot as his grandmother and 6-year-old brother stood nearby. Only a bag of marijuana was found near Graham’s body. [More]
I don't accept this account at face value--I'd have to insert "say they" after "cops" and before "spotted."

Oh, I see Rev. Al was there--no doubt once more agreeing with Furious Mike that New York "Only Ones" are the...uh...only ones who should have guns.

I see The Daily News also wants to convince us that New Yorkers have a lower suicide rate because they're so good at controlling "illegal guns." Now if they could just do something about the "legal" ones.

Meanwhile, check out NYPD's "hero cop."

David,

Isn't that very much like a Home Invasion? I don't suppose there is any 'Castle Doctrine' in New York?

It's just shit. That is what anyone can expect from NYPD under Bloomberg. He's nuts.

All the more reason to stop the Mexican invasion of America.

We will not stand for a Mexican sponsored cultural genocide,

Pat H--I assume this belongs elsewhere--the latest Examiner column post?
