UPDATE: MIAMI 'WAR ZONE' DURING URBAN WEEKEND (Shooting video)

It shows our city as nothing short of a warzone - Filthy streets, a drive by shooting, multiple cars crashed in the process, and total chaos on the streets. This is unacceptable and must be controlled before we totally lose our city

Isn't diversity grand?

Shooting video here, others have been omitted or deleted....Someone don’t want this seen.

Opening weekend for the summer of rage.

So what’s the story on that Nth-story video? Saw it, but little/no context.

[Da Coyote]

Hmmmm, trying to recall whether Miami has a dim-bulb-crat or Republican majority.

Thinking....thinking......

How’s that ILLEGAL ALIEN situation, there, Miami?

[dragnet2]

Apparently the vehicle driving down the street was shooting out the windows of the vehicle, and the cops opened up on the vehicle killing the driver...It’s not very complex.

Rep. Tom Tancredo: Miami Is a 'Third World Country'

[Drill Thrawl]

Rename Miami to Obamaville.

Coming soon to a city near you.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

That one's gone. Try this one:

Any reason why the occupants were doing that? How did they get the vehicle to stop (seems to me a motorcycle was involved)? What prompted the final barrage (suicide by cop at that point)?

[dragnet2]

Or, the vehicle attempted to run over a cop, they opened up, and the vehicle came to rest, and then they opened up again with what appears to be about 70 rounds into the vehicle.

The odl joke used to be that the definition fo a NYC conservative was "a liberal who had been mugged.."

Since this is on the Gay Miami website, dare we call it "Scared straight?"

BTW...is that rapper still favored as the NEXT Mayor of Miami? perhaps that's what this is all about?

[cripplecreek]

Oddly enough it appears to have been a pretty quiet weekend in Detroit.

[dragnet2]

I have no idea. But one of the links say this:

“If you’re driving a vehicle and you aim that at someone and drive towards that person with the intent of causing injury, that’s deadly force,” said Miami Beach Police Chief Carlos Noriega. When asked whether a weapon was found on the suspect, he replied, “I have not been informed of a weapon recovered yet,” said Chief Noriega.

Maybe the population finally dropped below the threshold needed for a flash mob.
