Shootout Erupts After Group Eats a Pizza It Hadn't Ordered (newser.com)
2 arrested in Dadeville shooting. I imagine no names due too them being minors. No mention of motive. Probably wanna be gangsters. I wonder which would have a greater impact in violent crime: A) Making firearms illegal or B) We all work together(especially black leaders) to change and eliminate the gangsta culture.Since most of the "mass shootings" tend to be black-wannabe-gangster shoots another black-wannabe-gangster I'll start posting "gun violence" on the BLM page.
Dadeville mass shooting: What we know today after 4 killed, 28 injured at Alabama birthday party (msn.com)
After they raise the "illegal possession of a firearm" penalties and start executing on criminal prosecution, then we will see "mass shootings" go back down.

2 teens arrested in Alabama Sweet 16 shooting that killed 4 and injured 32 (nbcnews.com)
Motive was alluded to in one of the earlier articles when a witness said certain people were denied entrance due to carrying firearms.Good update. All 3 look like thugs. Obviously the prosecutor can't talk to motive, but not seeing anything anywhere. So let's just go out and kill some people tonight??
Alabama mass shooting: Police search for motive in Dadeville Sweet 16 attack after 3rd suspect arrested (msn.com)
Fun propositions for the residents of Austin this week inspired by you can guess what.
Prop A
Shall the voters of Austin adopt an initiated ordinance, circulated by Equity Action, that will deter police misconduct and brutality by strengthening the City’s system of independent and transparent civilian police oversight?
Prop B
Shall the voters of Austin adopt an initiated ordinance, circulated by Voters for Oversight and Police Accountability, that will strengthen the City’s system of independent and transparent civilian police oversight?
On the bright side, enough turned out to force the end of the sidewalk camping permission that Adler, et al, allowed to fester...The background is an anti-police org got enough signatures for prop A. A pro-cop org saw that happening so they got enough signatures for prop B. It's Austin so I doubt B passes. No one knows what happens if both pass. Well, we know the courts will decide.
Police accountability is a good thing. They are more likely to get away with misconduct than be punished for something they didn't do. I support the idea or theory. However, I am not sure if the bills are any good. The "independent" oversight is probably appointed by and composed of radical leftists. So not worth it. But it would be good to have community votes or random appointments to a board like that to hear cases.
Treatment only works if the drug user is motivated to change. Most are not, which is something we saw after State Jails were created.
The goal eas treatment and probation, but the druggie population was more like 'f*ck probation and treatment, just give me my 180 days.'
Two points on this. First, I think we need to ask how effective incarceration has been in stopping drug abuse. I don't see much evidence that it has been. Second, there are things we can do to incentivize and therefore motivate treatment.
I don't care if incarceration does anything to stop abuse. If they don't want treatment as a condition of probation, then incarceration is the only other viable option to at least temporarily prevent THAT individual from preying upon society through the commission of other crimes that help feed the habit.Two points on this.

^^^THISOne way even though it is cruel is to do less for the homeless. Give them those who are motivated opportunities to work and get off the street. But those who are drug addicted and resisting help shouldn't be kept alive on the backs of others working paycheck to paycheck.
