Man Shot To Death in Brooklyn

Man Shot To Death in Brooklyn

"A deaf and mute Brooklyn man was fatally shot early Friday while waiting to catch a bus home after basketball practice, police said."

Back in the day, they would've called this guy deaf and dumb. Read the story linked above. It seems too random. Stuff like this (and the reader comment below) make me want to give up ScaryNY and turn to a weblog that features only positive events around the city. You know... good bands playing around the city, a funny story that happened on the train, Law & Order filming in my neighborhood, etc. I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

Am I focusing on the negative exclusively? Maybe. Do I feel that karma will bring that around on me? Maybe? Does that freak me out a bit? Yeah. Should I stop ScaryNY? Seriously, that's up to you, the readers. scaryny@1stcounsel.com. Let me know what you think, bc I could go either way.
