A shooting erupted hours after a local festival ended on Fourth of July weekend in Texas, leaving at least three people dead and eight others wounded, officials said.

Violence broke out at about 11:40 p.m. Monday in the Como neighborhood in southwest Fort Worth, where 11 people were shot hours after the neighborhood’s annual ComoFest had ended, WFAA reported.

So in the past four days, we have a major shootings in Philly, Baltimore, and now Fort Worth. In all three instances, it appears to be the usual suspects that have been taught no self-worth, responsibility, or value of life.

With our current culture, this is not going to improve. The left’s solution to outlaw guns and take them away from those that didn’t shoot anyone this weekend is no solution at all. That would instead increase the number of innocent people killed.

Meanwhile in Chicago, the thugs just have free reign to do as they wish.

....and, the Republican politicians are no better than Democrat politicians.

one cannot blame the democrat or republican "voters"

the USA is being destroyed by politicians on both sides. The Republican politicians just have a marketing strategy that appeals to republican "voters' but they are in every other way the same as democrat politicians , they just have a different sales pitch .

politics is a mind game that brings power to the politicians by creating hate and strife. it is in no way designed to represent what the citizens desire ( peace and prosperity)

I don’t think the violence was limited to a particular pigmentation.

In any case, this isn’t a color problem.

It’s a culture problem.

Bear in mind that my comment the ‘lennial replied to did not have the word “politicians” in it. The ‘lennial inserted it as a means to get on his soapbox and pontificate, probably in an attempt to impress people.

I don’t give much credence to poor reading comprehension and dramatic overreactions to comments designed so that someone can thump his chest. These are not our friends. They’re here to stir the pot. 😏

Democratic politicians don't destroy. People destroy.

I stand to differ. Democrat soft on crime laws, policies and pro-criminal AGs contribute greatly, if not allow outright, the lawlessness we have in blue cities and states.

Mark Veasey represents this black area. He’ll be reelected of course.

It appears that there are more Rumbles in the Jungles lately. Of course, the Media-Dems blame it on guns never on the perps.

I doubt the vast majority of thugs, rapists, and murderers are registered to vote, much less pay attention to partisan politics..

Who cares? Give it a rest and get off of your pedestal.

Have a safe and enjoyable Independence Day.

“The Fourth of July is pretty much now just an extension of Juneteenth.”

Or they’re celebration Julyteenth a bit early.
