With around 800 homicides a year the city picks and chooses which are reported. Most of the crack dealer shootings arent news worthy unless theres some collateral damage. hell most of the shootings/murders that come through our ER or kings county arent newsorthy unless its a cop.

I saw a special on NGC about some crazy ass hotel they are building with a race track running through it and a cage around it that is being built at the same time with every peice very different and all kinds of crazy shit. Building it in a stupid short amount of time too.

Pretty fucking cool though.
