---------------------------------------

There are several newspaper accounts of this. Some claim he was
beaten. Some claim he may have been hit by a car.
Apparently there are no eye-witnesses, so nobody knows for sure.

But you know what is a little strange? The victim has been identified
as Brooks MacQuarrie. He works at New Haven Power Sports.
This happened last Friday, which would be the 19th.

He has a Facebook page which I found, thinking there might be more
information available as to what really happened.

Nope.

In fact, there are no references to it at all and MacQuarrie has updated
his page *since* the event .... during this week.

Doesn't really mean anything but I thought that for a guy who has so
many serious injuries that no mention of them have been made on his FB
page was a little unusual.



Hard to believe there are no witnesses, since that part of Goffe Street
has housing, small businesses, lots of pedestrian traffic. Even the
Shell station where I worked part time one semester after high school
was over for the day is still there, amazingly, though the building has
been redone into a convenience store. About two blocks away where it
turns into Broadway are the Yale Co Op and the site of where Cutler's
Record Store used to be. I'm sure you know the area.

---------------------------

I do. I used to shop at the Co Op for school clothes and Cutlers for
the records. I recall they had just about anything ever recorded an
produced.
Can't picture where this accident or beating took place, but I am sure
I'd remember if I visited. Somewhere in that area there was a YMCA I
think. It's where I took a certification course for scuba diving.




The Y is on Chapel and Howe Streets, about six blocks from where
Whalley, Goffe and Dixwell converge. The Y was in a completely different
sort of urban neighborhood, and very safe. I went to the Y with a buddy
almost every Saturday when we were in junior high. We took the bus to
get there and back. Swimming and pickup basketball games. Great place.

Cutlers was one of the top hangouts back in the day. Everyone knew the
Cutlers. The co-op sold, among many other clothing items, Gant button
down oxford shirts for $8.00 each. I bought 6 in blue and 1 in white
before leaving for college, plus what we called chinos, and penny loafers.

Given the city where this took place, it was a plausible account of what
happened.
Nice try asshole.


Funny how harry based his whole rant on something I didn't even say...
LOL! What a fool..



You posted it. I'm sure you and your right-wing trash buddies believe it.

Way back when, I used to walk sometimes from my high school, whose
property bordered on Goffe Street, to downtown New Haven. That stretch
of Goffe was in transition way back then. I had an afterschool job one
semester at a gas station at the intersection of Whalley Avenue, Goffe
Street, and Dixwell Avenue.

Whalley and Goffe are named after two of the three so-called regicide
judges who fled England and came to New Haven in the 17th Century,
anticipating prosecution under King Charles II for their connection to
the execution of his father Charles I. They hid in a rock cave on West
Rock, and that cave is an historical landmark called Judges Cave.


How does talking about a bunch of non white guys beating up on a guy and
stealing his scooter turn into Harry blubbering about his high school
memories?

If I were testing a scooter from a
shop on Whalley Avenue, as he was, I would have stayed on Whalley or
taken a cut through street to another part of town.

If the police were doing there job they would send some plain clothes
cops down these streets once in a while (armed and with adequate
backup of course). I don't believe in letting criminals rule the
streets.

Affirmative action accounts for most of the NH police billets.

If you filtered him like the rest of us, you wouldn't have to worry
about it

Why is that?


Banksters aren't prosecuted.

Are all bankers bad or just the ones that want you to pay them back?



You worked for and possibly receive retirement income from an
organization of crooked banksters who, because they were white
banksters, weren't prosecuted. Is your former employer of banksters
still failing the Fed stress tests?


Weren't you UUlico's PR man.
