Army Veteran Robbed, Shot and Paralyzed as Violent Crime Spirals Out of Control in St. Louis

Around 10:30 p.m., Chris Sanna and his girlfriend were walking to their vehicle near Walnut Street and Memorial Drive when a black sedan pulled up to them. Two male suspects were inside the black sedan. The driver of the sedan exited the vehicle and demanded the victims’ property at gunpoint.

“After she gave him her purse, he pulled a gun,” Candis said. “That’s when they turned to run, and he shot at them twice.”

Isn’t St Louis where they threw snowballs at Santa Claus. /S

Philly... the city that stabs you in the neck.

The local media also did not report that there were six other shootings late Saturday night, Sunday morning.

St. Louis City and County are on track for 300 homicides before the end of the calendar year.

For perspective, that population is about 1.4 million total.

A buddy of mine has worked nine shootings in the last four weeks.

In a town of 3000.

You better believe there is a Ferguson effect...

Philly, the city that shall issue a license to carry firearms. New Jersey, the state I have to go to because of little woman relatives, that jails you for protecting yourself. A state filled with cowardly women of both sexes and fat governors.

"..CCW license holders can’t bring a weapon to the ball game."

That's easily solved. If you believe in the Second Amendment and the God given right to self defense, don't go to ball games. Or any other venue that doesn't allow honest, law-abiding citizens to carry firearms. They would either change their rules or go broke.

Here in NJ, the people in the suburbs around the cities are often the descendants of those who fled when the cities reverted to nature. Nobody has any illusions about race relations or what cities offer, and considering the population density here we actually have few black-on-nonblack incidents. Non-blacks know the dangers (despite TV shows and commercials portraying the false racial harmony); segregation is forever here in NJ.

Do most of these NJ suburbanites still vote for Democrats?

Democrat areas like to make life difficult for law abiding gun owners but they let criminals run around with guns—Chicago being a case in point. Criminals commit armed robberies in Chicago but get suspended sentences and a plea bargain to simple assault. Straw buyers get a slap on the wrist. Something strange is going on here.

They do, though they also supported Chris Christie (to stabilize property taxes that were out of control).

Has there been an arrest? Article doesn’t mention anything about that.

No. Cardinals fans are usually considered the most sportsmanlike in baseball.
