stop violence

From The Atlanta-Journal Costituition

Police are still trying to get a description of the suspects who shot three teenage girls in Clayton County.
The girls were rushed to the hospital Tuesday afternoon after being shot in a drive-by on Plover Road in an unincorporated section of  Clayton near Jonesboro, said Clayton police spokesman Officer Kevin Hughes.

On Wednesday, Hughes said detectives are following several leads, but still do not have a concrete description of the vehicle or the gunman.

Four teenage girls were standing on the side of the road talking to a group of boys when a car pulled up,  Hughes said.

Several men were inside the car. As the car slowly drove by, one of the men opened fire.
The gunman fired at least 11 shots before the car sped off, Hughes said. Three of the girls were struck.

    When is law enforcement going to stop beating and killing innocent people and start making thugs and hoodlums a priority.who are also beating and killing innocent people.both white and black gangs and drug dealers need to be stopped.it’s time to do your job.you went after this job,no one forced you to become police officers.you walk around like your gods,but you seem to be afraid of real criminals that will fight back.they are not as easy to beat and kill as the innocent men,women and children that you make fear you.that you persecute and terrorize.gangbangers and drug dealers are not afraid of you that makes you look like cowards.so far you are no more than bullies.

    No offense homie, but I dont think it was a cop that drove by and shot the girls…..Although police brutality (when it happens) is a problem, the bigger issue are the thugs and gangsters who think its cool, its aight and its whatever to walk around strapped and shoot a gun into a group of people. Its one thing to pull a gun to protect yourself or someone else, but to shoot innocent females…or people in general, to prove what? that your hard? that your tough? That your hood? At least being a cop, you get paychecks every month, health insurance, pension, tenure…a sense of gratification knowing you’ve worked to get where you are. To be a thug, where is that moment of “I made it, i’ve succeeded at something?”

    Hi all who made a comment about the shooting, I’m from Dallas, Texas and the police department here issue a warning to all females earlier this month, that Oct 21st starts the week of gang initation and they are targeting women, the rumor according to the police department was that each of the gang affiliations was to take out 140 womens. If you want me to forward you the text so that you can warn all the females that you know to take extra precaution send me a text at: 972-896-6466 I will forward it to you. Every apartment complex around has been holding crime watch meetings to try and keep people safe. Every body who have thugs in there area show know this. That would quailfy every state and city.

    It is sad that in the black community there is leademic(unleashing to bulltets on black by blacks). 9 million bullets ahev been purchased at gunshops around the United States. HOw many of those were purchsed by those who have unleashed death on many of our black youth. Sure the shootings could be from a self-hate that seems to have paluged blacks for many years now. What are we going to do with guns in the inner-city.

    One side of the line, people are calling for gun-control in the inner-city, while since the election of President Obama, those who wither fear a race or are promoting one have purchased countless amounts of ammunition and or many firearms.
    Our nation has spent billions of dolloars on the space program. Now don’t get me wrong I have nothing against the space program. But do you think that since our nation has been successful of doing that, that we could have also brought illegal guns to a minimal within the inner-city. I am not against gun ownership, I am against the trafficking of illegal guns which is out of control in this country.
    If we are going to win back our communities that are black, there have to be a viable soultion to this death while being black syndrome.

    One side of the line, people are calling for gun-control in the inner-city. Yet on the other side gun purchase have skyrocketed since the election of President Obama. There are people who are promoting white-supremacy and a possible race war. (I hope that every person who have threatened our President will be prosecuted to the full length of the law).

    All these gangs are nothing but front groups for liberal white supremcist. All these liberal groups that want to release these yellow belly oreos so they can keep the people down should be shut down. Really nice how all these liberal government officials are making sure that decent law-abiding citizens can’t have guns, so the oreos can terrorize them without fear of justice.

    You know cwn299 said it as it clearly is. These so called gangs are only coming out of the closet, so to speak to make it look as if we’ve gone madd and hating, not only ourselves but anyone that resembles our mirrored image. It’s nothing but a ploy!! These groups are nothing but white governed losers bought by racist organizations to bring terrorism to the front pages in our community. The media has never been this adamant about televising and printing the crimes that happen in our neighborhoods, so ask yourself why now!!Let’s rally as a people and nip it before it becomes too many victims to bare.
