This is so wrong. A person should be able to go out on New Year's eve in any city downtown and not be shot/assaulted or harmed. Mr. Williams was in a vehicle and minding his own business. That's just what all of us should be able to do in a civil society.

Exactly right. He, or someone, hired a professional driver - which is a responsible thing to do. Now, the venue, may have been a poor choice but I don't know. In any event, RIP.

Exactly. We can only imagine the mentality that thinks they can spray down a limousine with a semi-automatic gun. With the tinted windows on these limousines, this act was not directed at a singular individual. Behind tinted limousine glass, there is no target. This was the taking of innocent life in a random attack at anyone that is hit by the bullets. This is the classic class envy that exists between those who live civilly following the laws and those who live uncivilly by breaking the laws.
