A 31-year-old gang member fatally wounded himself today as he was cleaning a firearm while intoxicated, Fresno police said. It is the second time in just over two weeks that a gang member suffered self-inflicted gunshot wounds.

"On Jan. 31, officers went to Community Regional Medical Center where a gang member told them that he was walking near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and East Eugenia Avenue when someone shot him in the foot.
The officers determined, however, that he had shot himself near Ashlan and Marks Avenue. The gang member was arrested on suspicion of being an ex-felon in possession of a loaded or stolen handgun and several other weapons- elated charges."
It is nice to have some good news.
What a darn shame — that only one gang member helped cleanse the gene pool.
Thanks, needed the feel-good after the announcement that we will officially be a socialist state.
I have never had such good news just to bad the other one didn’t bite the dust..
I kind of felt that people needed something to smile about today.
A gangbanger cleaning a gun?
Thats gotta be a first.
Even money his family tells the press his life was just turning around for the better.
Hey now.
He was an Honor Student, you freakin’ cynic.

Just tragic! A potential member of Obama’s civil defense force bites the dust!
“He was a good boy, a really nice person.”
LOL - the classic line - “I’m trying to get my life together.”
........and nothing of value was lost. /s
He’ll still get confirmed won’t he?
(Sure he’s gotta be anti-gun in the Obama administration, but that don’t mean he can’t have his own. Geitner’s pro-tax, right?)
Yer killin me - LOL. “He was such a role model. Gentle, caring, and the children looked up to him.”
Yeah you are probably right..I wonder what happened to those little black thugs that was on that vidio..We will soon find out more than likely..Hitlers gang will be marching soon..
‘nothing of value was lost’
Bullets cost money. Too bad it wasn’t a knife accident.
If only he’d waited to clean it a month from now Hussein would have outlawed all guns.
That was my first thought. What the hell is he doing cleaning a gun?
