15 black people shot 3 of them fatally. Wonder if any NFL players will take a knee tomorrow in recognition?

That thar's me gold! No that's thar me gold!

I'm sure they were descendants of the 49ers. The 1849s not the POS football team.

The shooting continued in the driveway of the restaurant, which is located in a house on a residential block, police said.


I know Houston doesn’t have zoning laws, but I thought LA did.

These are not real ‘civilized’ people. Most of our major cities are over run with them.

Us civilized folks will have to eventually deal with them if they spread their savagery into areas it is unwelcome.

Code enforcement isn’t strict in ‘no go’ zones.

Says this woman lost her husband in the shooting. There were a lot of innocent people caught in the crossfire. It is sad what our society has come to.

I guess not. The Jamaican who owns the place told police it isn’t a restaurant, but a catering service that only has around fifty people in it once a week, when he serves food like a restaurant. Seems legit.

The man, 63, said he has operated his business out of the house for more than a decade. He said another shooting occurred at the location in 2011.

“The guy that died in that shooting was my friend,” he said.

I think I would give the restaurant a bad Yelp review.

The lives of these people mattered too. Or would matter if they didn’t choose to throw them away on senseless violence.

Order is breaking down in this society. Most people spewing the BLM nonsense are too young to remember that the current “mass incarceration” and other tough on crime measures are a reaction to similar soft on crime liberal policies of the late 60s and early 70s.

The end result of all this mayhem and destruction will be another even harsher crackdown on the black community once they go to far. BLM is being used by the Democrats. When it starts to threaten the $$$$ of the Wall Street types that control the party it will be stepped on like a cockroach.

Unpossible, California has the best gun laws in the country. This could never happen there, they promised.

“I know Houston doesn’t have zoning laws, but I thought LA did.”

Zoning laws only apply to the pale citizens in California.

But there were fifty people there.
Maybe it was a modified, limited hang-out.

So, “crack house” would be closer to the truth than “restaurant.”
