I'm going to guess Hebrews, but maybe Dominicans are in love with Jordan Shoes?

Why is the victim being arrested for disarming a robber?

Two fucking idiots. I'm sure the shoes were got from a legit source, I mean, why not have them at your store. And other than dress shoes, who the fuck pays $490 for a pair of sneakers?

I don't even own a pair, fuck paying $490 for any shoe.
More money than f'in brains to pay that much.

That'll encourage more people to commit armed robbery.

You don't own a pair of dress shoes? What if you have to go to a job interview, wedding, funeral, or to a nice restaurant?

I got sneakers that can pass with anything.
I don't do weddings, never been to a funeral and don't care much for fancy restaurants.

Does this make the thief a human slot machine?

This joke implies that the reader will know the euphemism "One Armed Bandit." IMHO, that IQ expectation is at least two standard deviations above the norm. Please simplify your comments to increase your LIKES.

WOOOOSSHH!

Unsure of the neighborhood. Might be just past Crown heights.

Canarsie is down near Jamaica bay, bordered by Flatbush, Flatlands, Brownsville, ENY. Crown Heights is a bit NW of it, it's one of those old Black/Jewish/Italian neighbourhoods that's gone Black and Caribbean the last 30 years or so. Victim looks and sounds Haitian from the name, family interviews, and prep walk. The family seems middle class from general looks and dialect. Robber was a skinny black dude.

Shame, but the robbed fellow has a tough road to hoe, this could go either way depending on who gets picked from that area. Also not sure why we're spending to try and reattach that arm, the kid should have to deal with it.

The AfroCaribbean neighborhoods can get pretty rough. I lived in Crown Heights for a while but am not expert on the area.

I'm delighted the victim chose to run down the greasy shoe-man. That he's being charged with anything is a damn shame.

Better, Van Avenger should have driven back and forth several times over the greasy shoe-man's battered body. Permanently imprinted the brand of tire onto his face.

At least the kid can say he was a part of "Hands Across America".
