“At least 12 people were shot in East St. Louis Thursday night . . .”

This is a bad deal for those injured but there is no reason to make more out of it than there is . . .

President Biden has issued a statement saying the collapse of American cities is not inevitable and that, in any event, it is unlikely to happen immediately.

Naming various streets, roads, and drives after Martin Luther King has been an unintended public service.

Ten people on the train hurt in collision. Three occupants of car in collision self-extricated and hid in the woods.

Deep pockets?

Whoops. But clearly the railroads are part of the racist legacy. /s
I'm sure someone will *rail* against the use of trains.
I'll guess the perps never paid for tickets.
I wonder if the police will find anything that will *tie* them to the murders?
Okay, I'll stop now.

No doubt they’re Amish.
Both the shooters and the victims were Amish.
The police need to stand down in such instances.

after the shooting on Martin Luther King Drive in East St Louis, Missouri\

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

East St Louis, Missouri must be in the Mississippi River because the small city of East St. Louis is in Illinois.

This is a surprise. I've seen this scene hundreds of times in movies. The crooks always just barely get across before the train. Always.
