Shooting at the parade
Friendly mod reminder, this thread is about yesterday's shooting. Not about gun control, gun laws, politics, or anything of that nature. If you need everyone to know what's wrong in this world and how you'd fix it, grab your megaphone and soapbox and take it to DC, thanks. Last edited by DaFace; 02-16-2024 at 02:59 PM.. |

The police departments communication with the public was very quick and impressive as well.

There was an issue with a citizen who thought he was going to cosplay as John Wick and did more harm than good.

Situationally if someone pulls their weapon it needs to be because it absolutely has to be used. But you are right it is a nightmare no matter how you slice it. |

I have to admit that the people who said this story would go away once the media realized it was gangbangers, or at the very least heavily-armed hoodlums, kinda had a point.
I get that the police aren't releasing much info, but that doesn't stop the media from asking, or speculating, or doing think pieces on gang violence, etc. And they just seem incredibly incurious about any details right now. If the media makes a stink, the police might be forced to release more info. Because I still have a ton of questions. How many more do we think were involved? What happened to the first guy who was shot as reported by several witnesses? Is he one of the suspects? Is he on life support? Do we have any idea why these kids were so heavily armed? Do we think it was rival gangs? Did one of them get his jaw shot off or not? Why had the police still not interviewed that guy who witnessed the whole thing and talked to Dana and Parks hours after the fact? Have they at least followed up with him now? Nope instead we just get "3 suspects, 2 of them juveniles, this is still a very active investigation and we have no further details at this time" and the media is like "ok, time to go home." |

What's the point of even putting pants on at that point on the guy in the blue boxers?
