Two men were arrested, but it's unclear if they were involved in the shooting.
Two people were killed, including a teenager, when gunfire erupted at a rural South Carolina block party that drew up to 1,000 revelers in spite of government warnings against large gatherings during the coronavirus pandemic, authorities said.
The shooting broke out just before 8 p.m. on Saturday in an unincorporated area about nine miles outside Union, South Carolina, after the Union County Sheriff's Department responded to a complaint of vehicles blocking a roadway, Major Scott Coffer told ABC News on Sunday.

Should we expect the same media coverage and slant of media coverage on this SC story as on the story from SE GA?
Should we expect the same protests from the protestors? Do ALL lives matter? Do ALL BLACK Lives matter?
I am against all senseless killing. And there should be equal treatment by the media and the protesters, and by us FReepers.

See, this is what happens when people go outside. We should all be on permanent shutdown/lock-in. It will save lives! It’s the American thing to do. Be a hero, stay inside.

“Rural block party” is oxymoronic.

1,000 people is not a block party.

I don’t think there are 1,000 people in my entire subdivision - and I live in Civilization, unlike “nine miles outside Union, SC” which is super nowhere.

If they we’re in a straight line that party would have covered better than a mile of “rural South Carolina”.

the gunfire came from a car driving down the road, and people at the party returned fire, the station reported.....Jabbrie Brandon, 17, died at a hospital, while 21-year-old Curtis Lamont Bomar died at the scene
Two arrested and charged.
