Suspect in deadly East Harlem Burger King shooting of woman demands 'reparations' for slavery, promises 'America is gonna burn'
2022-01-15
[Post Millenial]Another White Supremacist Republican
On Friday, the man identified as the suspect behind a fatal shooting in an East Harlem Burger King was officially charged with murder and robbery.

While being taken away from the 25th precinct in handcuffs, 30-year-old Winston Glynn yelled at the crowd that gathered outside, who berated him as he exited the building.

"She gave you the money, man. Why?" One man can be heard asking Glynn.

"You're garbage! You're garbage! You're real garbage, motherf*ker," an onlooker yelled.

At one point, Glynn, who is black, can be heard ranting "Where's our reparations for four hundred years of f*king slavery!"

At another point, Glynn shouted "America is gonna burn!" according to the New York Post.

Early Sunday morning, 19-year-old Kristal Bayron Nieves was working at the Burger King location in East Harlem. Police say that Glynn approached the register in the fast food restaurant and removed $100 from the register. Nieves was behind the counter, according to CBS 2.

"The man demands more money from the register drawer. As Miss Bayron Nieves is scrambling to open the drawer, she doesn't have the key," NYPD Chief of Detectives James Essig said. "The male fires one shot, striking her and causing her death."

"There was no reason to shoot this young woman. Money had been handed over. She was trying to comply with the gunman's demands," NYPD Chief of Department Kenneth Corey said. "She was killed for no apparent reason."

Glynn, who has four prior arrests, was found in Brooklyn on Thursday night and was taken into custody.

On Friday, police reportedly questioned Glynn, and officially charged him.

Police say that Glynn had previously worked at the Burger King location in 2020, but was not working there the same time as Nieves.

"All indications are that he knew this place well, that he pre-planned the event," said Essig.

"I hope he gets what he deserves," said neighbor June Lloyd."I'm broken hearted for her. Broken hearted. It is so sad in these times you can't go about your everyday life."

Lloyd said the Nieves family moved to the building from Puerto Rico around two years ago and spoke with them in passing. She noted that she has not seen the mother of the teen around the building since the shooting.

#18  amazes me that the authorities choose to spend time harassing the law abiding rather than patrolling the area in search of law breakers

#17  Our KGB Chrissy Wray will now investigate Burger King for racist hate crimes.

That is only half a joke.

Lol, I wouldn't recommend that here in the US. It amazes me that the authorities choose to spend time harassing the law abiding rather than patrolling the area in search of law breakers.

#15  And if you just give up your life to an armed robber, carjacker or home invader without a fight, maybe St. Peter will say "You did the right thing, come on in."

Or maybe he won't.

#13  As I recollect in England, if someone invades your home, you should retreat to a bedroom or exit out the back and let them do as they please. You're not allowed to defend yourself, except maybe if you are personally attacked.

The police go around at night rattling your doors and windows to be sure they are locked.

#12  #10 Weare living through a human behavior experiment

Yep. Living through quite a few human experiments, come to think of it. Let's see what happens when...

... violent criminals are set free
... the border is thrown wide open
... we make our economy depend crucially on a rising hostile foreign power
... we allow freaks to teach our children that their angst is due to being "trapped" in the "wrong gender"
... one party ensures that mail-in voting with zero custody chain becomes the norm
... the Fed + feds inject $5 trillion into a supply-constrained economy
... a billion people worldwide are forced to undergo a still-in-development gene therapy that hasn't undergone proper clinical testing with randomized controls.

Experiments are fun. Exciting--thrilling, even.
What could go wrong?

#11  ^ Don't forget the relentless attacks and outright prohibition in blue areas from you personally taking serious precautions to defend yourself. Even hurting someone trying to smash your car window as you drive off may land you in jail.

#10  We are living through a human behavior experiment when zero bond and limited prosecution shows what happens when you don't set examples. Not executing those who premeditatedly and without remorse murder another plays the same way.

#9  For a Death Penalty to be effective:
1. It MUST be publicly held and exp.
2. It must be timely. <5 yrs.from sentencing.
3. It must be without question correct.
4. It must have a clear simple process for appeal & review that eliminate ANY question.
5. Since a death/murder has occurr then based on FACT WHEATHER IT HAPPEN and no legal technically used as an opppps!
6. Official or advocate withholding evidence must charged as an accomplish to the murder.

#8  The deterrent effect of any threat is directly correlated to the perception of its actual use. The liberals in the press, justice and political system have so limited the use of the death penalty that in California, for example, virtually every inmate on death row has died of disease or old age. There are 747 people on death row, and since 1978 a total of 13 have been executed, the last in 2006.

#6  In the ongoing debate of whether capital punishment is a deterrent, it certainly deters the executed criminal from future violent behavior.

#5  Public executions were a great deterrent back in the day.

Even more so if it took a bit for the perp to leave the earthly realm.

#3  Back in the day, a better time, I believe, America would give him a fair trial and then burn him in the chair.

#1  Reparation defined:
The process of making amends for a committed wrong.

So how should Winston Glynn make his amend?
