The cops are all from long island and run in the opposite direction when they hear gunshots.

No reason to get killed when a huge pension and early retirement are right around the corner.

Plus with Bloomberg in charge, they know no one has their back.

What a tragedy , that poor father of those 13 kids will have to try to raise them all on his own while holding his job. But for a rare circumstances like this do we provide government assistance. How could anyone suggest an orphanage?
If not for this awful event he and wife would have soon raised the 14 children children on his own without requesting government help, just as has been the case since the first child they chose to have. Because heroes of society have as many children as they can reasonably support and raise. And then they stop.

How many kids does Nadya Suleman have? She is no hero.

I am NOT about to deny the heroics of this women who died!

Take it from me FRiend, folks like this unfortunate woman in Brooklyn are Christian( Lot of ‘em are Baptists) but conservative they ain’t. These are “Obamas people’’ through and through.

I didn’t see the information about her loving husband holding down a job with no assistance from the government. Can you direct me to that article?

Sorry, I have no proof, your post simply lead me to draw that reasonable conclusion.

It has been a long day. Time to remove my rose colored glasses and leave such comments to the pros.

A 33 year old living in one of the worst areas in NY has 13 children and you came to the conclusion she had a husband with a job? Those are some tinted glasses for sure! ;^)

This was a very affecting story.

I hope the shooter is caught quickly and the full weight of NY justice brought to bare.

My prayers are for the many children this brave mother leaves behind.

Her husband's name is Raymond.

I guess in your world she deserved to die so she couldn't make any more babies.

She made the ultimate sacrifice for others. You can't even show some respect for the dead.

Yeah, and that was just cold. Why bring politics int this, and for anyone who brought race or welfare into it, you should know better. A pregnant woman sheilding her children from bullets? Freepers don’t think that way.

Oh, just one more reason for these liberal progressives to cry international gun ban treaty. Justa note: read that Mexico’s president has hired a an LA law firm to bring charges agianst the US government for running guns in his country. This falls into thier happy lap! The UN international court will rule on Mexico’s side the US will be punished by having to sign on to the international gun ban treaty and the rats will be obsolved from all blame and they will get what the’ve always wanted.

Well gee newszunkey, she had the same last name as her mother, Horton, so that kind of disputes the "married" bit - and this article mentions a previous baby daddy of 8 of the kids - and I never said she deserved to die.

Race? I didn’t bring race into anything. It’s demographics pal. Where this woman lives in Brooklyn is predominately black. Funny thing, when stuff like this happens the race pimps like Sharpton never utter a peep. And I think for myself, thank you. Oh and btw, you and I and every other tax-payer of every race are paying for these kids and thousands of others.
