Pace University’s campus is tucked safely between NYPD headquarters and city hall in lower Manhattan. So the response came quickly Thursday afternoon when a report was called in of someone preparing for a mass shooting.
It happened around 2:20 p.m. Thursday at Pace University. NYPD Deputy Commissioner John Miller says some people called 911 after seeing what they thought was a man loading a machine gun from an ammunition belt in a men’s room stall.
Apparently what the person peering under the bathroom stall saw was was nothing more than a fashionable student dropping the kids at the pool.
Police later caught up with him and realized his belt was simply a wardrobe item.
Meanwhile, the building was evacuated. Some students who saw social media posts about a possible gunman said they barricaded classroom doors or fled on their own.
With Halloween coming up fast, there’s no telling what fashion-forward stall-peekers could see in the weeks to come. The boys in the First Precinct could be busy.
sounds like a law that can be interpreted in any way the government decides. They have already said that expressing any view they disagree with is a hate crime.
The big question………will you go back again?
They exercised their right to prevent you from exercising yours…….and you went back.
Now theyve called 5-0 on you to rub your nose in it.
Gonna slide back in now.? Hands in the air?
Here’s my question? Why can’t TTAG do such basic research- like molest google -just to find out the basic details of the altercation like many of the commenters and their news 9 links managed to do? Another failure to content or even engage in the most basic bare minimum of investigation by this site.
So the short version is RF lacked the integrity of his convictions and went to an anti-gun shop after claiming he wouldn’t be back.
When people promote economic freedom, they do not intend the resulting prosperity to serve as a magnet for people from communities ruined by leftist thought. Many of those who arrive here for a better life are also responsible for f*cking up the places they came from.
Cafe owners, if you cannot adopt the philosophy and way of life that makes Texas an attractive and prosperous place to live, then please go the hell back to the liberal community you came from. If you are a native-Texan-yet-leftist, put your money where your mouth is and move to a place that fully embraces the way you think the world should operate. The prosperity and opportunity will only last until enough of your kind show up to ruin it.
Bitchnuts you’re obviously clueless that Austin is a liberal Mecca that attracts radical leftist fruits like flies to $#it.
nice
like Brenda responded I’m shocked that a stay at home mom able to earn $7047 in one month on the computer. have you read this web site —> asterbiz
That Miguel Richard shooting is not the bad shooting being portrayed by many.
The cops are called by the landlord on a man with a knife who is mentally ill and also may have a firearm.
The arrive and repeatedly, and I don’t mean two or three times, but about 50 times, tell him to drop the knife, put down the knife. They do not rush him or the situation at all. They do have their firearms at ready but maintain their distance so as not to force the situation. He has a knife in his left hand and his right hand is completely obscured to the cops point of view (as evidenced from the body cam)
At about three minutes they call of a taser, just after the taser cop arrives, Richards — for the first time reveals his other hand — he has a red dot equipped realistic replica gun. you can see the red dot lit up and moving toward the cops. At that point he goes from a dangerous threat kept barely below lethality from the 20-25 distance, to an immediately lethal threat.
I don’t know what the policy is for tasing someone pointing a firearm in your direction. seems a taser is a great first attempt for someone at >20′ with a knife, but could actually cause someone to involuntarily fire if they are holding a gun.
What this episode shows is a good argument for tasers on all NYPD cops, or for them to take taser with them immediately on any wellness check. The irony is it is their patience that was the primary cause here. If they had tased him in the first four minutes this guy would be alive. Instead they tried for a very long time to seek voluntary compliance
the comments here are almost as dumb as the folks in the video…
This is stupid. Tungsten is brittle, shock will shatter it. As anyone who has owned a 20-22 magnum with the tungsten bolt can attest to. Drop the bolt it cracks, and it sometimes would crack just because it felt like it.
If you know that your classmate is mentally ill, suicidal and armed why would you bully him? Do you believe you’re bulletproof?
Or maybe it’s only after the fact that people do the math and now they’re looking for their 15 minutes of fame.
