"Unconscionable?" Yes. "Unjust?" Absolutely. "Unsettling?" most definitely. But it's all too believable.

My husbands family moved here and lived in the Bronx for about 8 years when he was kid. The Calabrese immigrant community has icky thoughts about SI even today. It's the Calabrese immigrants blowing up my Facebook now with their rage over this.

My husband is livid right now. He's having a Sambuca and cigar in his studio right now.

We have to put a stop to it. They better indict that POS nutcase in Cleveland that killed Tamir

Back in the 70's the Calabrese knew to stay away from there - they don't like other Italians - sure as shit don't like us black folk.
