at this rate we will be at over 50 for the year with countless other shooting victims who survived and then recovered at a local hospital at taxpayer expense.
to those saying let them shoot it out, its easy to have that philosophy until its one of your family members or someone close to you.
My thing is we are a community need to come together out of these church’s and pray for our city. In the mean time let them all meet at a place out of harm of other. And play cowboys and Indians. May the last one standing win. My things is you are bad enough to shot someone but bad enough to go turn yourself in. And stop walking. You shot like a man be a man. Don’t get scared now. SMH I am praying for our city.

I agree that just let them shoot it out..
“Stopping drug use is not a factor its stopping the violence”,,really drugs have nothing to do with drug related crimes/murders?
Violent rap vids, violent movies, glorification of the gangsta lifestyle, cop hating vids,
certain groups chanting “kill the pigs”
Connection? Nah
As long as innocent people are not hurt in this mess…. MEH…
Let them work it out, there will be a better business plan and less bosses ..
Stopping drug use is not a factor its stopping the violence of all these KID gangs out there doing any and everything to get NOTICED… Well being noticed by the LAW is something real criminals avoid..
When is this going to become a HUMDINGER of a situation?
The two retired CITY officers running for sheriff are not going to do much more, they should have stayed in the CITY if they wanted to stay in to fight crime.
Law enforcement is afraid to do their job, because if they make one little mistake, they my get fired.
There is a whole different subculture living amongst us that most of you have no idea how deeply ingrained it is, and how dangerous it is.
I’ll take the job… every hitman ear I turn in, I’ll accept $500, American, and call it a “Public Service”.
This is harsh but real: so long as the drug dealers, gang members, and other criminals continue to kill themselves I couldn’t care less! As long as innocents aren’t being taken as collateral damage then I hope these thugs and hoodlums kill every last one of each other.
Oh well…. power struggle amongst criminals! To lock up witnesses would be a waste of tax payers’ money. Just like a family squabble, best solution to stay out of it altogether.
Turning into Chicago
Arrest the witness as a accessory!
Yet again a witness who won’t say anything. This will continue as long as eyes conveniently forget what they see. Karma will get you soon…….
