  1. The shooter is a threat to society that keeps getting a slap on the wrist…. HE WAS LITERALLY RELEASED FROM PRISON SUNDAY AND SHOT SOMEONE MONDAY!!

    • That’s just REDICULAS !! When are people going to start being held
      accountable for what they do instead of being slapped on the wrist and being told “Now don’t you do that anymore”, like a child. That’s one reason all these crimes are happening because they know that nothing is going to be done to them. They aren’t afraid of the consequences because, many times, there aren’t any.

  2. That house on the corner is a constant problem. This aint even the 3rd or 4th shooting there. It needs to be demolished.
