Barbershop Shooting Leaves One Dead in Gun-Controlled Massachusetts
Breitbart ^ | 09/30/2024 | AWR Hawkins

One man was killed and another wounded when a man allegedly opened fire in a Dorchester barbershop in heavily gun-controlled Massachusetts on Monday.

The Boston Herald reported police were called to the barbershop just before 1 p.m. and the body of the deceased victim was still in the barber’s chair.

The wounded victim’s injuries are not life threatening.

Boston.com quoted Boston PD Deputy Superintendent Paul McLaughlin saying, “Based on the preliminary stages of this investigation, we do not believe this was a random event. …We are currently spreading out in the area, canvassing, looking for witnesses.”

WCVB noted that Renier Thompson, the grandfather of the victim shot in the head, said, “To all the young people, don’t follow these gangs, bad company. Get you a job. Make your mothers and fathers proud.”

First of all...it’s Dahchester. And no,it’s not a dump. Things would have to improve by leaps and bounds for it to be just a dump.

Nope....not entirely true. Yes,it’s utterly depraved but there are many suburbs of Boston that are very,very nice indeed.

Well, without gun control, there would be 2 dead, so you got that.

And just think about how many people stay home rather than go out in the evening for drinks and food. Helps out the economy.
