Sex Offender ;;;; Living in WESTWAY !!
HORRIFIC !
Sex Offender “Thug” was REMOVED from WESTWAY. DHS better be aware of where they’re placing these animals !
Definitely has to do with the homeless at the West Way Motel!
Kell, you are an idiot. Do you know that for a fact? If you assume you make an ass out of u and me but you are probably too dumb to figure out what that means.
i agree
Haha notice the word allegedly NOW appears in this article. Well said molb
My reply is towards Mollb /Mike /Oil !!!!
Ha…Ha….The thug should come after you and then you can ask him …….Are you allegedly robbing me ??…..Ha…..Ha…!!!!!! …….Moron (Mike)
Was it you ??? …
Braindead ??? Don’t understand English ?
He grabbed her phone ….and she started screaming ! ….
Then he left !!!
Lol. You’re an idiot. Completely missed the point.
Hey……Mike ;; Idiots & Morons say….lol……
The Thug should “allegedly” come after all of you morons !
I think he understands English. His point was that the writer should say allegedly. Perhaps it’s you who doesn’t understand English?
Listen IDIOT……….Allegedly……means presumed ! Look it up in the dictionary !!!!!!!
The THUG grabbed the girl’s phone !! He should’ve came after you and all the IDIOTS that gave you the thumbs up !!
In the legal system, in the United States, you are innocent until proven guilty. That’s why reporters are required to say allegedly & that’s why the writer of this article, added allegedly to his article (which was not there prior). Why are you getting so bent out of shape?
No one including myself is saying he’s innocent and no one is saying he shouldn’t be arrested.
Yeah……we know ! But In my eyes ……when you commit the crime ;; You’re GUILTY !
You neglect to use the word “allegedly.” Not defending someone that may have tried to steal a cell phone. All I’m saying is there are many sides to every story and he didn’t actually take the cell phone & no one was hurt. I think before we post pics of people online, accusing them of something we should be more cautious..
Black people started to cause more problems in Astoria. This has been noticeable in the past few months. The Greek community will be the first to suffer
Go ack to Greece. This is the US where we are tolerable of all races.
What Greek community? They all moved to LI. It’s all hipsters in Astoria now.
Hipsters? Can there not be Greek hipsters?
Golden Dawn? Not even trying to hide your fascist alliance, I appreciate that, let’s you know who your enemies are. Golden Dawn tried to bring their Nazi propaganda to Astoria a couple of years ago and even the old-timer Greeks didn’t bite. Try that $shit again and you will be chased out, again. As a 20 year resident, Astoria has always been, and will continue to be a safe, colorful, multi-ethnic neighborhood.
YOU must be BRAINDEAD !
To Mollb…..You are a PEABRAIN !
You are a PEABRAIN ……More like BRAINDEAD !
Mollb……. IDIOT !
