A 15 year old kid was shot and killed by Oakland police last week because he waved a sawed-off rifle at them. At the memorial vigil for this kid, police busted two guys for weapons violations.

What kinda fucked-up is it that folks who illegally sell/give weapons to kids go the memorial when one of those kids ends up dead for using them?

By the same light, it is almost a charmingly ironic fuck-you to people that are enabling this shit that the cops made a bust there.

Not to mention some jackass spraying mourners with gunfire outside the memorial. WTF? Seriously, could you bad guys give it a rest for a frickin'couple of hours?

Re: with link, this time


Dude! The church was packed with a thousand mourners, and there were more people out on the street! Amazing that so many people will show up to a funeral, but how about having been around while he was alive such that he didn't end up wandering around with a sawed off rifle?



Yeah, yeah, privileged white woman talking here, I clearly just don't see where they are coming from.

And while I am still miffed and therefor indulging in bitter off-color humor:

Dude... Taco trucks should be sacred ground.. no battles allowed, just like in the Highlander. Grrr!

But they caught the bastards. (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/03/26/BAGNVQOG6.DTL)
