Nearly 100 shots rang out near a recreation center in Mayor Jim Kenney’s (D) Philadelphia at approximately 7:00 p.m. Tuesday after at least two suspects opened fire.

6 ABC reported that “children were practicing sports” when two suspects exited a white SUV and opened fire. Five people were injured as a result.

A teenage witness said, “We were just sitting there laughing and talking and after that, we heard two gunshots. We thought it was fireworks at first, so we didn’t run, but after that the automatic gun started going off, we all started running.”

FOX 29 noted that there may have been more than two shooters and that “police believe the shooting stemmed from an ongoing feud between two groups in the neighborhood”:

Actually 3 percenters.

12% of the population is black.

Half is women and they commit almost no crime.

So 6% is black men. But black men in their 50’s and up commit almost no violent crime. Same can be said of toddlers through 8 years old. That is about half of the black male population.

So 3% are committing 52% of all homicides.

Philly doesn’t have any except for schools and any private places (which are private). PA is open Carry and shall issue concealed carry.

“ABC reported that “children were practicing sports” when two suspects exited a white SUV and opened fire.”

I like how they put “children were practicing sports” in quotes because we all know that’s a euphemism for teenage gang bangers hanging out on the basketball court doing what gang bangers do.

Let’s hope the gangstas were using stacks and stacks of 10-rd magazines.
