Bloggers online been on this since the doc dropped
 
I'm not gonna pretend like everyone in the building should have known who dude was

We live in a different age for information dissemination. Maybe in Brooklyn this was a big deal. Maybe the radios touched on it for a minute. I can see how buddy slipped thru the cracks
 
“ if they don’t want any niggas in the neighborhood, that’s just the way it’ll have to be” Lil Pat aka Paddy Duke

There's quite a few ppl who couldn't tell you the name of the officer who killed Michael Brown. Or Oscar Grant. Etc etc etc

I'm not saying not to hold the station accountable but pics yrs later with dude ain't gonna sway me to find fault with them.
