Tom - you're saying in the last few hours ten girls have been shot in Hudson County in gang initiation rituals?

Can you please verify where you're getting your information?

jerseymom, none of the posts regarding shooting tonight are true. I don't post hidden behind a screen name so, please ignore this troll aka as Tom.

TWO MORE GIRLS BY ST.DOMINICS

Jersey Mom. I?m sorry to say that YES these shootings have been in regard to gang initiation..
Oct.30th is traditionally the initiation date for the local
BLOODS.
Multiple friends of mine are currently on duty for the JCPD as well as work for Hudson County.
I am being updated in regards to the "count" between casual conversations.
Father police officers who text their families in hopes that their next response isn?t their daughter is just one example of one of my sources.
IF you would like to find out for fact, I suggest calling your local police station and asking if these rumors are true and if so what you can do to avoid drawing attention to yourself if you absolutely have to go out tonight.

btw. just found out

TWO MORE SHOOTING IN JOUNRAL SQUARE

If you are making this up, pack light for your stay in Hell.

Yes jennymayla, there is a special place in hell for this fool.

If this is bullshi*, I ask our good webmaster to kick this idiot off immediately. I'm trying to feed this information to parents in Jersey City who have legitimate concerns over their children's safety tonight and this rumor cra* infuriates me to no end.

this is when i say how greatful i am that i dont work for the city in THAT aspect. i cant tell you how dissapointed i am that they told you that. The best i can offer is that just play it safe and i cant tell you how much i wish i am wrong about all this, but if not, i hope there is press coverage to educate people.

ugh. this is depressing.

anyways, to the troll comment from pinkowitz, like i said, i hope im wrong, but im just trying to look people out by sharing the information iam recieving through my own resources. (iguess my police scanner must be hacked by a radio show, right !?)

& jerseymom, within the week i will reach out the those i am close with who work for the city, and share information about how to spot gangs within your own community.

STAY SAFE PEOPLE

I was a fresh faced kid just out of college in 1990 when this same crap was circulating via anonymous fax.

Shame on anyone who thinks it's funny to spread such panic, especially given the somber mood of the last month.

The information YOU POSTED is not true. What you have done is malicious, childish and irresponsible. You need to step away from the keyboard cause you have lost all credibility as a decent human being, Oh screw this, you are a jackass and I +1 jennymaylas prior post.

Looks like the rumors are getting around... my coworker just said something about two girls getting shot in Harrison. I told him about this BS thread, but he kept going on.

Sigh.

Stuff like this spreads quickly. There are 35 guests viewing this thread as I post this. It's sad that this was done and I can't even stomach reading his sappy excuses...

I am monitoring all four JC police districts and Bayonne. There is no indication of any mass shootings. The cops are busy chasing egg throwers. Tom, you are no Orson Wells.

Hell, if only it was that eventful. I just travelled from JSQ to Lincoln Park and had to step over ZERO dead bodies on the way home. In fact I saw ZERO cops too, other than the one giving tickets to cab drivers at the PATH station. So Tom, please shut the eff up thanks....

This years target for initiation is YOUNG GIRLS.

When it comes to GANG INITIATION, most rumors are FAR from myths.
DO NOT FLASH YOUR HEADLIGHTS if you see someone driving without them on. DO NOT STOP/GET OUT of your car if you are tapped from behind.
DO NOT WALK ALONE (young ladies) and PLEASE, check-on your friends.
AS I AM WRITING THIS,

2 MORE GIRLS WERE SHOT ON ARMSTRONG.

PLEASE. MOST IMPORTANT. DO NOT BE NIEVE& THINK YOU ARE SAFE, STAY HOME TONIGHT, PLEASE.
MEN & WOMAN. YOUNG AND OLD ALIKE.
TELL YOUR FAMILY. TELL YOUR FRIENDS. TELL A STANGER. SEND AN EMAIL. PASS IT ALONG.

I suggest if you have a daughter or a young girl, drop-off/pick-up from school/work.
I personally will be picking up my neighbors daughter & bringing my little brothers girlfriend home.

PLEASE BE SMART. NO STREET IS SAFE
( keep the families of these young ladies in your prayers. They are still hunting for approx20 more girls)

This post is not true. This is a malicious, childish and irresponsible prank. This poster should be banned from this site.

+1 Pink! This guy's an idiot.

Irresponsible for sharing information as is shared with me?
No ?stunt?. I don?t find any humor in gang-related crimes.

Call me out if i am passn along wrong information, and turn a blind eye to those who call initiation night an ?urban myth?.
It?s that same attitude that got my coast my cousin his life a few ?seasons? ago.
I do HOPE that ALL the ?counts? were not true, but likely not the situation. I guess the morning paper will tell us more.
Oh and the police are busy chasing ?egg throwers?? After being accused of spreading imaginative rumor I decided to breakout the scanner. Although I haven?t personally heard anything with shootings there?s been reports of mask and bats taken to the street and beating at random.

Anyways, sorry for passing along any false information that I was given it.
Just tryna look out.

I?m interested to reading the morning paper, for once I hope I am VERY WRONG & if i'am i'll apologize for false info.IF I AM NOT, i expect the same.
& now we wait for the AM

No, what is irresponsible is passing on unconfirmed information that could potentially cause panic. You are doing more damage than good.

Anyway, there is no gang initiation or mass shootings tonight.

Move along now, 30+ anonymous viewers. Nothing to see here.

Definitely. Information that is legitimately confirmed is always best. And really hope it was false. BUT the fact that I was being told the SAME story for the same LOCATIONS from DIFFERENT people all at once.
So I felt a RESPONSIBILTY to take what info I was given and share it as a precaution for others who have concern.

unfortunately, I? m a moron but I rather share information about 1 out of 3 instead of not sharing what I? m being told and someone on the forum getting hurt.

we shall see soon enough what?s what.

well guess what it was true! it was on the news this morning. yes 3 women were shot in newark and a women on monticello . just because u dont hear about it from the police dosent mean it isnt true. 2 people were shot on the number 4 bus on union street in jersey city. i know people are saying it isnt true but please be careful! this gang shit is real! as i was told by someone who used to live in south central la everybody used to say the gang violence wasnt true in the beginning but u see what happened later. people put this shit in the back of their minds and believe what they want to out of fear. if they dont beleive it, it isnt happening but it is. the police ha! alot of shit goes down in jersey city that is not reported so dont be fooled by the bs. and guess what? i know a cop and he told me to be careful. one of the original text messages was started by a cop. is candy that damn important to you. shit its a pagan holiday anyway. do what i am doing go to the store and buy your kids some candy and watch all the scary movies. u do what u wish but this mom and her kids will be in the house after dark safe and sound.

funny how people are saying it isnt true but i tell ya the word is everywhere. yesterday i was warned by the secretary at the dentist office in newport mall, my supervisor, and my friend who works at paco downtown. apparantly the police cant control the violence. if they could there would be no gangs in jersey city. my son was warned this morning they would be shooting outside of his high school by the mother of a fellow student. whether u beleive it or not just be careful. thats what these gangs are depending on that u dont beleive it. it makes their quota alot easier to acheive

one more thing a friend of mine was killed a couple of years back by gang members and it wasnt in the paper the way it actually happened but it was gang related. his name was michael henderson. if u want to look that up ,be free. so just know that alot of shit u read in the paper is not always as it seems.
