An 8 year old boy got lost walking home in NYC, asked a man for directions and wound up kidnapped and murdered, found in pieces in the man's freezer.
I hate these stories not just for the horrifying violence and loss of innocent life, but for the words of community members, which are always the same.
"Many of the mothers gathered there said the streets are safe enough for a child Leiby's age to walk home alone."
"This is a no-crime area," said State Assemblyman Dov Hikind
"Safe enough" obviously wasn't, nor was this a "no-crime area." This predatory animal proved that those statements are no more than an illusion, as evidenced by his heinous crime.

Things like this are one reason I've never worried about whether the neighborhood I lived in was 'safe.' You don't have to go to evil, it will come to you. All you can do is be prepared to face it.
What is odd about this is that the anti-freedom forces will not use this as an indictment of our society's easy access to knives, nor does anyone notice that the article mentions how the children are indoctrinated to do what they are told, instead of questioning authority figures.
Exactly. When will the sheeple learn?
I don't know about anyone else, but the only "No Crime Area" is the personal space around my body when I am armed.
Hate to say it, but sometimes Hollywood gets it right. Go look at the ORIGINAL (1976) version of "Assault on Precinct 13" and check out the scene where the little girl goes up to the Ice Cream Truck. If that doesn't tell you just how Quick Evil can Strike the Innocent...
