Gambling busts. I guess I'm on the side of thinking this isn't a real crime.

Like selling alcohol at a restaurant without a license, you need a license to take bets of which there are very few in ny. Should the police have better things to do? Almost certainly lol but can’t sympathize too much they know the risk they’re taking

Im replying to the statement that a gambling bust isn’t really a crime, whether we like it or not it is if you’re unlicensed. Regarding swat I duno what makes you think I care, it seems extreme but it is also presumably rare for a restaurant without a license to be arresting a guy who is a convicted murderer. Im not trying to blow it up, im just saying at a basic level they are arresting a previous felon who committed the most punishable crime under the justice system and already spent a long time in prison.

This was all about "the show" with law enforcement. Whats next, they are going to use swat teams to arrest hookers on the street??? Well, maybe not unless they are Italian.

Whataboutism is the lowest form of conversation. It’s a crime, don’t like it? Either don’t do it, run for office or person people in office to make it not a crime.

Until then, shut the f up. I love how all the jagoffs who rant about an Italian bias are the first people to tell black people to shut up if they mention a bias towards black people.

When I heard it was the New Jersey crew I thought it would be the frank Lagano hit. It’s the only “recent” body linked to this crew that hasn’t had any indictments

“Romanticized versions of organized crime have been the subject of countless movies and television shows, often set right here in the Garden State,” Mr. Platkin said at the news conference. “But the reality of organized crime isn’t romantic or cinematic.”

This is the best quote this DA can come up with. "[You think it is. But it's not.]" F*ckin idiot.
Schratwieser said in a post a few days that it's possible more then one defendant knew about the wiretaps.
