A suspect has been captured and charged in the Florida shooting during Halloween fun early Sunday that left two dead – including a 14-year-old boy — and more than a dozen wounded, police said.

Tyrell Stephen Phillips, 22, was charged with second-degree murder in the aftermath of the bloodshed, Tampa police announced Sunday afternoon.

Authorities have not identified the two fatal victims but were both males — ages 14 and 20.

One grieving father told WFLA his 14-year-old son Elijah Jaquan Wilson was one of the dead

“Bring back mandatory military service”

Who the heck wants these losers in the military ???

Today’s military is largely high tech and even the common soldier needs brains enough to operate some complicated equipment and to be able to promptly execute detailed orders and operations.

Do you really want the military filled with idiots?

They'll learn under the proper conditions to reliably do something useful

I think certain things can be done to induce them. For example the ass Lyndon Johnson started much of the mess with his great society. He gave more money/benefits to single mothers so what happened? Fathers were not needed as a matter of fact it disincentivized them being around.

So just reduce the benefits slightly to single mothers and increase benefits to families with both parents. Or here is an idea…just drop the welfare state.

Of Course we both know a system that doesn’t have enough backbone to protect its own borders won’t have the guts to anger potential voters by reducing benefits even if it would be beneficial in the long run.

Golly gosh, all those years I have observed major holidays turn into Merchant holidays and now with our new generation up and coming... Merchant holidays are turning into shoot-em-ups.

I would never go Halloween party or ant other ghoulish festival and not expect any good to come out of it.

Party on!

You are correct. The Aid for Dependent Children welfare system keeps this all in place. It needs to end so this endless run of fatherless children stops — black — white — yellow — green — color is not the issue. It is women choosing this life.

877.22 Minors prohibited in public places and establishments during certain hours; penalty; procedure.—

If I read the above right, there's a curfew.

If so, why the heck wasn't LE on scene enforcing it?

He made poor choices. When I was about that age, I wasn't in jail. I was working to maintain some of the most complex and sophisticated aircraft in the world, some of them loaded with nuclear weapons.

You want to more than double the size of the military with a make-work force?
