That makes three of us. What the heck is “second-line”?
Second line is a group of people who follow a main parade. Trailing behind,raising a ruckus. Now, in black neighborhoods primarily, any excuse to play music, drink and generally act stupid is good enough to get a mob parading down the street, collecting more people as they go. More sedate ‘second lines’ are done at parties and weddings, just a line of people dancing to music, carrying umbrellas or waving handkerchiefs. This is more like a spontaneous flash mob parading and getting larger as it goes. Black thugs with grudges find them very convenient for eliminating rivals. It happened on MLK day parade, it happens regularly- shootings like this are NOT ‘isolated incidents.”
