This is what happens in a society that is no longer taught to value life. Another day, another shooting.

“Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive near the intersection of Highway 21 is partially closed Sunday as Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office deputies investigate a shooting.

The sheriff’s office issued a Nixle alert Sunday morning stating deputies are actively investigating the incident. Officials said there is no threat to the public.”

The Schumer and Skyhook Ha-Keem zombies are out of control. They’ve started their body count of Americans they’ve assassinated.

Chris Rock used to have a bit about Martin Luther King Blvd.

They are rarely in the good part of town.

Saturday night, they’ll be dressed to kill
Down at Willie’s Bar ‘n’ Grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys want to fight, you better let ‘em

It was just a couple weeks ago that a violent thug shot up a bar in North Carolina.

What is going on with the people there?

Barely a few weeks out from a shooting up in north in North Carolina.

I’m afraid this country has just gone numb.

Christians haven’t helped the situation either. Everyone is so mesmerized by the Middle East they can’t bother to care about the bloodshed at our doorstep.

Willie’s Bar and Grill

Looking at their social media, they appear to have a daytime crowd and an entirely different nighttime crowd.

Nothing good happens after 11 p.m. and on or near Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.

Based on the pics at Google Maps, and if “Willie’s” is the same place on MLK as “Willie’s Bar and Grill” (showing as Permanently Closed?), it appears the owners are black and they have bands that lean more to soul and jazz and the patrons appear to be mostly older, retired white folks.

“Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive”


I suppose they could have named the street, “Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Drive” to show even more respect...
