**Daquan Spencer, 30, was at the event inside Scarangella Park near Stillwell Ave. and Avenue V when someone started shooting around 1:30 a.m.**
I guess they didn’t get the memo that noting good ever happens after midnight.

I guess his life did not matter.

We has a similar thing happen recently at a vigil in Indy for a 16yo that was shot.
And it was still daylight when that one happened.

At 1:30 AM the “vigil” was being held for Colt 45 Malt Liquor.

Meanwhile, gun clubs and NRA conventions continue to be quite safe venues.

Someone didn’t understand the point of a “gun violence” vigil.

NY Post doublespeak from the article:
“It’s believed there was some intermingling between the attendees prior to the shooting.”

This does sound like a good start, though. Now they can have a vigil for that person who got shot, during which someone will be shot, so they will have a vigil for that person, and then someone will be shot...I guess the person who is left standing wins (?)

I think staying out of a Brooklyn park might be a better idea

The memorial was one of several events happening in the park at the time of the shooting, which included a birthday party and a basketball game.At 1:30 AM. Good grief.

The second MST dangerous place for a black person, after the womb, is a peace rally.

Looks like Daquan had some people who didn’t like him all that well and decided to solve their problem.

Yeah, thinking the same thing...kind of late for a memorial.
Do the bars close at 1:00am?
To: sparklite2
And don’t bring a candle to a gun violence vigil, Virgil.
