Charlotte police officers are being called back in from days off and vacations after five people have been killed and five others hurt in shootings during a violent Labor Day holiday weekend in North Carolina’s largest city.
The dead include a 7-year-old boy killed during a birthday party around 9 p.m. Saturday in a front yard in southwest Charlotte. Another child and two other adults were wounded, but their injuries were not life threatening, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Deputy Chief Jeff Estes said.
“It’s a sad state of affairs in the city and our country when a 7-year-old boy can’t be free to celebrate a birthday party without being murdered,” Estes said at a news conference Sunday.

Of course no mention of the neighborhoods these happened in and it's made to seem like the whole city is just on fire with crime...

Low income row house neighborhood.
You can figure the rest out from there.
I'm shocked, shocked, I tell you, I was sure it was those evil, right wing bigots........... :)
DeleteIt sure as hell wasn't in Myers Park or Barkly Downs! But why would anyone expect this in any place by southwest or west Charlotte.
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with the area, but get the jist of your statement. Thanks.
