I don't understand, are these just coincidences all happening at the same time or is this some sort of retaliation against proposed/coming government bans.
Sounds more like a cultural issue than anything to me. In that area of atlanta there is a large culture of gang violence, it's an everyday part of life for lots of those people.
Terrible news. I don't know the specifics here, but I do think we will hear about more of the types of shootings that perhaps in the past, when the topic was less in the forefront at the time, we might not have heard about so quickly, but it really is disturbing how often these things are occurring.
My guess is that frequency hasn't changed or has gone down, but media is more likely to report on it now.
I'm interested in what happened to the kid, so I'll keep an eye on this. http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/31/us/georgia-student-shot/index.html?hpt=hp_t2 "At 4:45 p.m. students were loaded onto buses and reunited with their families at a church less than two blocks from the school. Price Middle School has about 400 students and has metal detectors at the doors, Davis said. He said the district would investigate how the assailant was able to carry a gun" There are just some CRAZY mother effers everywhere... dang copycats! Many what... arguments? Shootings of peeps? Peeps getting shot? Stories? Laws? Guns? WHAT, exactly?
