JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. – One person was killed and two others were injured in what police described as an “active shooter situation” Sunday night during St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in the busy downtown bar district of Jacksonville Beach. Police locked down the area for hours and were searching for what they believe to be multiple shooters. No arrests have been reported.

More information is expected to be released during an 8 a.m. update by the Jacksonville Beach Police Department.

The shooting, which Jacksonville Beach Police Sgt. Tonya Tator said happened “out in the open,” was first reported around 8 p.m. Sunday.

Have any recent mass shootings into a crowd of celebrating Americans been perpetrated by white people?

Living in Jacksonville, I am fairly familiar with the area, it’s normally a fairly upscale area and with the end of the Players Championship, the crowd would also be more upscale, but like the one person was quoted when you have vermin from the inner city decide to head out to the beach nothing is safe.

Jax Beach and the inner city of Jacksonville are not that close, it’s a 20-30 minute drive, whenever that crowd goes anywhere, you know a lot of them are carrying firearms, throw in alcohol and it has all the makings of a bad situation.

When that crowd starts to form, you need to leave and you should also be packing just in case.

I think of the humongous masses of mostly white young people who attended Woodstock and other such venues and nobody got shot.

But just a handful of these get together in the street and somebody is going to die by hot lead poisoning..................

West of 3rd Street between Atlantic and Beach blvds. there are some very rough minority neighborhoods.

Chances are many of this element had a short walk or drive to cause this stupidity.

Like all places there is an element of vermin everywhere, but that area from all I know has not in the past had this type of violence, regardless of where they came from, when you see that type of crowd forming it’s probably best to leave otherwise anything can happen.
