CBS New York ^

A Greenwich Village man clearing snow away from his truck Friday morning was carjacked in broad daylight, police announced.

As WCBS 880′s Alex Silverman reported, the snow had stopped falling and it was dead quiet on Christopher Street when the incident occurred just after 9 a.m. There were much fewer people out than on a normal weekday because of the snow.

According to police, a building superintendent was shoveling snow next to his blue Dodge Ram when a man in his 20s appeared and pulled out a gun. He drove off without firing a shot, police said.

I'm assuming that suspect had got the proper permits and registered said gun, right?

De Blasio supporter, just redistributing the wealth.

Look for lots more of this. City sanctioned, even.

Everything is fair game in Obama’s new, “fundamentally transformed” Amerika! “What’s mine is mine and what’s yours is mine too!” Lawlessness is running rampant these days. But Hey! If the president and his illegal aliens can disregard the laws, We the People should be able to do the same. We’re an “every man for himself” country now! Just like Kenya!

Since there was snow on the ground, DeBlasio called it a “white-out” situation which explains why there was no description of the thief’s race.

[You can’t say news “blackout” these days without getting hit with a hate-crimes charge]

Okay, we’ll blame it on the Amish, George Bush, and the Joosz (hattip to Helen “I’m rotting in Hell” Thomas)

Bizaaro world.

On the same day the Detroit police chief openly encourages people to arm themselves to deter crime.

“...when a man in his 20s appeared and pulled out a gun.”

Must be an Amish guy taking advantage of the gun free zone!

Is that true? Wow. How pathetic. Is he blaming Republicans for their anti-gun regulations?

New York needs more gun control. Obviously.
