Rule #1: Use enough gun |
https://www.clarionledger.com/...ots-fired/580139002/ Gunfire caused panic at a vigil for slain rapper Lil Lonnie on Thursday evening. People had gathered to release balloons in remembrance of the Lil Lonnie, who's given name is Lonnie Taylor. A video shows someone speaking when the crowd starts to react to shots being fired. There have not been any confirmed reports of injuries. Taylor was shot multiple times as he drove his SUV down Montibello Drive on Sunday night. His vehicle stopped when it crashed into a house. A female passenger was not injured. There is no suspect information at this time. In response to the vigil shooting, Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba gave an interview with WAPT to reassure residents that "this is a safe city and it will remain a safe city." Lumumba expressed his regret and concern for the families who attended the vigil. "But those individuals who are intent on being knuckleheads at this moment, we want them to know that this is not a safe place for that behavior. We won't tolerate it," Lumumba said. Anyone with knowledge of this crime is asked to call the Jackson Police Dept. at 601-960-1234 or Crime Stoppers at 601-355-TIPS (8477). Send a text to 847411 and enter "JPD," followed by your tip information, then press "send." You may also submit a tip online by clicking on the web tip link on the Central MS Crime Stoppers website. When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are undisturbed. Luke 11:21 "Every nation in every region now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." -- George W. Bush | ||

People are so skiddish these days. They were just giving the traditional "Fotay Gat" salute. It's all about clean living. Just do the right thing, and karma will help with the rest. | |||

His diet consists of black coffee, and sarcasm. |
In other words, a typical day in Jackson, MS. At least no humans were harmed. | |||

No double standards |
I agree. And if we only had laws against guns, these things wouldn't happen. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Someone shot a rapper?? On noes!! RMD TL Davis: “The Second Amendment is special, not because it protects guns, but because its violation signals a government with the intention to oppress its people…” Remember: After the first one, the rest are free. | |||

I like that the mayor referred to the celebratory shooters as "knuckleheads". That's some funny shit. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation."

The Mayor has probably also had other statements of denial like "ignore the man behind the curtain . . . these aren't the droids you are looking for". Back to my broken record, if you continue to deny reality, you will neve solve the problem. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should |
Just keeping up the tradition of a little celebratory gunfire. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

Apparently the quality of the newspaper's editorial staff and writers is low, too: "who's given name is...." Sigh. ---------------------------- Chuck Norris put the laughter in "manslaughter" Educating the youth of America, one declension at a time. | |||
