Re: Random Gun Information Still Not Worthy of a New Thread

Eight shot

One shooter dead and another wounded
One civilian dead and others wounded but not life threatening
Two cops shot one in the vest and one in the hand

Helicopter took five rounds

HPD unsure if second shooter is suspect or armed citizen. That person is in hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.

Now this would make it a juicy story. Armed citizen tries to play cop and doesn't realize that the real cops have no way to discern that he's not a bad guy and gets shot by the cops

Shame there's no way he could earn some kind of badge to identify him as one or the other.

Speaking of identified shooters, Plainclothes officer who killed Florida church drummer is charged with manslaughter, attempted murder.

Charging documents released Wednesday by prosecutors state that: According to an audio recording of the interaction, at no point did Raja identify himself to Jones as a police officer; he was not wearing his tactical vest identifying himself as a police officer; and Raja's vehicle was not immediately distinguishable as a police vehicle. Prosecutors say Raja drove his unmarked van the wrong way down the interstate off-ramp in order to confront Jones about 3:15 a.m.

"A reasonable person can only assume the thoughts and concerns Corey Jones was experiencing as he saw the van approaching him at that hour of the morning," prosecutors wrote in the charging documents. "Raja stopped his van at a perpendicular angle directly in front of Jones's vehicle. ... At no time during the recording did Raja say he was a police officer."

According to the transcript included in the charging documents, Raja asked Jones several times if he was "good," before transitioning to demanding he put his hands in the air.

Raja: You good?

Jones: I'm good.

Raja: Really?

Jones: Yeah, I'm good.

Raja: Really?

Jones: Yeah.

Raja: Get your f—ing hands up! Get your f—ing hands up!

Jones: Hold on!

Raja: Get your f—ing hands up! Drop!

Then, according to the documents, Raja fired three shots in rapid succession, prompting an AT&T call center operator who had been on the phone with Jones as he waited for the tow truck to exclaim "Oh my gosh!" Then, 10 seconds later, Raja fired three more shots.

Prosecutors say that Raja then called 911, about 30 seconds after firing his last round.

If we treated gun crimes seriously, this guy would have been in jail right now, rather than shooting up a memorial day picnic. 

We need to put people who carry guns illegally, use them illegally, possess them illegally, etc. in jail for long long time.

That is all.

David Warren is a member of the 10 Grand Club in Baltimore. That's a club of people who consider themselves hit men

[General_Failure]

These pitiful shootings barely even register as news. Only a handful of people were shot, and nobody died. Meh.
