The Nigerian Consulate in the USA has issued an alert to all Nigerians living in that country to stay indoors and avoid gatherings of all nature especially sub-ways and cinemas due to the incessant killings going on in that country. USA is very unsafe at the moment, and this is because of several gangs and militants agitating for control of the lean allocation of medical marijuana, it could be recalled that last month, 2 terrorist bombed a marathon event in Boston, murdering counts of innocent civilians including women and children, it could also be recalled that a man, 50 yrs of age, was jailed last week for having s3x with a pitbull and another for having s3x with her dog.

It is not the best of times for the struggling president barack oldbama who is struggling to pass gun laws in the former world power and restore sanity to a country who has lost moral values by approving use of dangerous drugs, such as marijuana and legalizing same sex marriage in what could be termed Soddom and Gomorrah of the modern history.

Nigerians are hereby advised to stay indoors and wait for another notification on safety rating while our Nigerian Intelligence in that country monitor the unfortunate events.

Diasporan: Americans on the loose.With all these our right to own guns can't be stripped from us even if the CIA make up news like this or not in other to discourage the masses.I love my gun
but those guns would be confiscated thru Martial law and in the process of people not wanting to surrender their guns...go figure

shymexx:

And Chicago isn't even the murder capital of America, despite the amount of people that get gunned down in that city annually. grin You've New Orleans, St. Louis, ATL is catching up, Baltimore, Philly, DC, Oakland, South Carolina, LA, Gary(Indiana) etc. where people get killed like it's nothing in that country. Yet they call, London, a place where only 5 murders(and that's the highest in like 3 years) have been recorded this year so far, violent. grin

The only time London was violent in the last 10 years was probably in 06/07 when people were getting gunned down almost every week in South London and parts of North London. And since Trident and undercover feds stepped in, it has reduced drastically.

Also, New York City is one of the safest cities(if not the safest) in America. grin
London is a small city compared to NY and is not as diverse as NY in terms of standard of living.

You're right about New Yo0rk not being the most dangerous city despite being the commercial nerve center which is Ironic. Cities like Baltimore, Detroit and South-side Chicago take the cake.

tdade: 25 People Shot (6 Killed) Over 48 Hours In NYC

Mayhem in the city: 25 people shot in 48 hours
Three killed Sunday after three were killed Saturday. One of the wounded includes an 11-year-old girl who will never walk again.

Violence surged like the mercury Sunday, with three more fatalities from gun violence — and eight others wounded in shootings — bringing the total number of bullet-riddled in the city to 25 in less than 48 hours. Only Staten Island was safe from the wide-ranging spray of gunfire and sickening weekend bloodshed. At least 12 people were blasted in Brooklyn, eight in the Bronx and another four in Queens. The sole person shot in Manhattan took several slugs to the chest and perished in broad daylight.

Sunday’s first fatality was Ivan Martinez, 21, who was approached around 3:25 a.m. by a 20-year-old gunman and a woman at E. 139th St. near Brook Ave. in the Bronx, police said. The gunman shot Martinez once in the head and ran off with the woman. In the second fatal attack, a man in his 40s was gunned down during an argument in East Harlem around 1:20 p.m. The victim, who has not been identified by police, was blasted multiple times in the torso on E. 105th St. near First Ave. Less than four hours later, Damien Powell, 25, was killed after he was shot in the chest outside the Albany Houses in Crown Heights, sources and witnesses said. The victim’s mother collapsed at the scene, where shell casings littered the street, witnesses said.

In other shootings Sunday:
- A 21-year-old man was shot in the leg in the Ravenswood Houses in Queens at 12:10 a.m.
- A 21-year-old man was shot three times on East New York Ave., Brooklyn, at 2:36 a.m.
- A 20-year-old man was shot in the leg at Bedford Park Blvd. and Webster Ave. in the Bronx at 3:30 a.m.
- A 35-year-old man brought himself to Jamaica Hospital with a gunshot wound in the leg at 4:12 a.m.
- A 15-year-old was shot in his leg and back on Osborn St. in, Brownsville, Brooklyn, at 11:40 a.m.
- A gunman opened fire at Bedford Ave. near Lenox Road in Prospect Lefferts-Gardens around 3:25 p.m.

And what is this news supposed to mean? New York is not in Nigeria. Be concerned with the security situation in your country. Shit happens every where. At the least you get to hear this. Every killing is reported and investigated. How many people die in Naija daily without anybody knowing? And if ever reported, are they ever fully investigated and the culprits brought to book? You guys are full of it for comparing crime and enforcement in a developed country with that of Nigeria.
The sooner we started focusing on our problems, the better for us all. Stop giving our leaders excuses to justify none performance.

You're right about New Yo0rk not being the most dangerous city despite being the commercial nerve center which is Ironic. Cities like Baltimore, Detroit and South-side Chicago take the cake.

How do you know London isn't as diverse as NY? I honestly doubt there's any city in the world as diverse as London. You've got Colombians in North London; Turkish in North London; Africans everywhere; Asians everywhere; Latinos/Hispanics everywhere; Americans and Canadians in West London; and Oceania people everywhere.

So what makes NYC more diverse than London?

I think the Giuliani gun laws saved NYC. NYC used to be proper rowdy in the 90s, though. Also, the gentrification is helping as well. However, with the invasion of Bloods and Crips - NYC should get back to its old ways in next few years. Anyway, NY niggaz have never really been about killing people like other cities in America; they've always been about hustling and robberies. I guess it's probably because of the level of black consciousness that has always existed in the city. Even the most super-gangster triple OGs in NY are black conscious - and most know about black history and Afrocentrism.

It's not like I used to side with the yanks - I just try to be as objective as possible. if the argument were to be about which country has the best system for youth developments, in terms of how to harness talents(combining talents and education) - I'll definitely argue for America. Also, if it were to be for where to make money easily, if you're a hustler, or someone who's self-employed - I'd argue for America.

Objectivity, bruddah. wink
