News Scary Shit: Mob Beats Man to Death in the Middle of Park Slope

Forgive my naive white liberal rage, but this is just fucking awful and shouldn't happen anywhere; and it has nothing to do with "real" New York vs. "fake" gentrified New York. Twenty guys beating a man to death for looking at them wrong is a nightmare scenario from a prison yard—not to get all Kitty Genovese here, but midnight on a Saturday night in Park Slope? Wtf, people. And before you accuse me of armchair vigilantism, last summer I found myself in the middle of about a dozen guys beating on another guy with what looked like busted pool cues and table legs; I had my dogs with me and really didn't know what to do, so I just yelled "hey" really loud with my best cop voice and it froze the mob long enough for the victim to run around the corner to Bedford.
Fucking hell.
