Kawme Williams, 18, of Oakland; Robert Smith, 20, of Hayward; and a 15-year-old Antioch boy were taken into custody after the shooting, which happened at the close of the Pride parade and celebration about 6:30 p.m. Sunday, police said.

Officers were working at the annual event when they heard gunshots and saw Williams with a gun in his hand and "attempting to shoot the weapon over his shoulder while he was running," said Officer Albie Esparza, a San Francisco police spokesman.

My guess is, since one of the shooters was named "Kawme"-- if a group of White Heterosexual men had shot up a Gay Pride event in San Fran, this would be the biggest news story in the history of news stories, but since it be Kawme and his boyz-- it's cool.

"Media Silent"

They're waiting for the deep thinkers at the top of the media food chain to give them a clue as to precisely how to spin this clash between protected groups.

Anyone below the level of The New York Times who spins this on their own and guesses wrong loses their career.

I just find it hysterical that it is confined to a local nothing paper.

"attempting to shoot the weapon over his shoulder while he was running,"

That's just downright irresponsible!

[equalator]

Well, since no one is commenting on this story, we might as well hijack it ourselves-- here is a funny video on ""how to shoot like a gangster"-- seriously, it's funny.

"attempting to shoot the weapon over his shoulder while he was running,"

Must have got the idea from seeing Danny DeVito doing it in "Jewel of the Nile"

How can you say “Media silent” when your article is from “SFGate”, which is the SF Chronicle, which in turn is “the media”?

[Vision Thing]

Can’t wait for radical islamists to terrorize these homopride events. It will make many media folks suicidal.

Because if White people shot up a gay pride parade, it would be on cbs abc nbc cnn NPR cable 24 hours a day for seven years

[Michael.SF.]

You are reading more into this than is there.

So three feral creatures start shooting people. Liberal solution: take the guns away from all law-abiding people who don’t shoot other people.
