Police say 33 shots were fired, starting around 6 p.m. Tuesday evening at Jack Farrell Park on Fordham Street as children were playing tag and a church baseball team was practicing for an upcoming game.

With a name like Davante I have to assume that his cousin looks like he could be Obama’s if Obama had a son.

It’s amazing with all that wealth around there that East Palo Alto still remains a thug ridden dump.

Interrupted the church ball game practice? Do these people have any boundaries at all?

Since when has that been the "street code?" It sure ain't in Chicago.

Davante Adams is a recently-traded wide receiver to the Las Vegas team from Green Bay. He was Rodgers’ go-to receiver. Now he will be Derek Carr’s go-to receiver.

This was clearly a dispute over philosopher Scott Kretchmar's concept of the five types of mind-body dualism.

Junior: "Mind and body are perfectly coordinated..."

Other guy: "No dey ain't!"

Naturally, violence was the only resort.

It also might have been the difference Between String Theory and Loop Quantum Gravity, which is a hot topic among that group of scholars.

Is there any actual news value to knowing that a shooter is a cousin of a football player?

Are we supposed to think, well the football player must be living on the edge of the law himself? Why?

He might not have had any contact with his cousin in years. I have cousins I could walk past on the street and not recognize. They could rob a bank or win a Nobel Prize and I would be none the wiser.

The Surgeon General has determined that it improves your children’s chances of not dying a violent death before the age of 30 by 87% if you don’t name them from a handful of Scrabble tiles thrown onto the kitchen floor.

You may be right. Neither side is willing to cede an inch to the other. As always in these cases, violence is the only resort.

By groups I guess they mean to rival gangs, and what does a football players cousin have to do with this and who cares.

So what? Why is this worthy of a post?
What’s next? Man runs over ant on driveway, two grasshoppers slaughtered as well?
