The authorities need to clamp down on the sources that are bringing all those guns in the country. By now, almost everybody know who the culprits are yet, nothing is being done to stop the flow of the illegals. Too many of our black young men are being imprisoned for gun crimes yet, the real criminals of a different color are walking free and running their businesses Kool and smoothly.
Hey Jacob….it’s interesting isn’t it? But wait man…..the same people who as you put it are “Kool and smoothly” bringing in guns will be injured or killed by the same guns.
Watch and wait. Live by the sword and you die by the sword.
Wicked people in this wicked world. Hope he makes a full recovery
The government should get solar powered streetlight with camera combination out of china to replace all existing streetlights system and help the police and government solve crime.
