Stock photo caption: “The High School for Humanities at 351 W. 18th St. is on lockdown after shots were fired in the ‘immediate vicinity,’ nypd tweet.” The story’s first paragraph refers to the school as, “the Bayard Rustin Educational Complex at West 18th Street and Ninth Avenue.” I checked google under High School for Humanities generically, and under news, and got nothing about the shooting or lockdown. I then checked under “Bayard Rustin Educational Complex” (generic and news), and the shooting did show up under “news,” but only due to the non-paying, local, pc patch franchise below.
“Lower Manhattan Council Member Erik Bottcher placed the gunshots to the NYCHA Fulton Houses and said in a tweet, ‘This cannot continue.’ [!]
The Lower Manhattan school lockdown comes a week after a tragic shooting at a Texas elementary school shook the nation.
“There was no evidence connecting the shooting to the school, but the issue of gun violence is among top priorities for Mayor Eric Adams, who has pledged to tackle a dramatic increase in guns and other weapons confiscated in New York City public schools.
“Just hours before the shooting, Adams announced the beginning of Gun Violence Awareness Month in New York City.
“Said Adams, ‘We won’t stop fighting until we’ve ended this epidemic.’”

GRA:I'm sure EVERYONE'S aware already,but let's try to anticipate the rest of the year--and the stupid themes only a black administration would try to fool the public with.Based on June's theme,we can expect something like this:
July:"Make Sure Firecrackers Are The Only Thing Being Shot Month"(Will be ignored entirely).
August:"The Weather's Hot--Don't Get Shot Month"(Not until August 2nd anyways).
September "School's Back--Don't Pack Month"(I have a feeling,kids will look like Rambo walking into class).
October:Trick(or Treat)Your Fellow New Yorker to 31 Days of Not Getting Shot Month"(The movie "Halloween" probably has less murders than a NYC Halloween).
November:"Shoot Only Turkeys Month"("The turkey I'M shootin' is named Jacquarious,"said one anonymous black thug.)
December:"Don't Shoot Santa--OR Anyone Else Month"("Santa's got presents--he gonna get shot,"said another thug.)
GRA:Those themes are so lame,Adams will probably steal them.
