A Mad Gangst’rish Spring Evening

gun-glock-by-smarterlam-at-flickr-163692235_09727fcbdd.jpgI absolutely just heard 10-15 gunshots coming from near the corner of Ridge and Elliott. It could not have been anything other than a clip unloading. Does anybody live nearby that heard or saw anything? Or would like to step forward and confess? Not everybody at once, there’s plenty of internet to go around, just tell me why I have to listen to fucking gunshots every night.

    better question- why do people live on the downtown mall and complain about music and get the city to pass noise ordinances that turn musicians into criminals?

    and people who moved to belmont(i’m speaking of the opportunists, here),,, and complain for getting free music from the pavillion.?

    …excuse me, can i get a taxpaid sound wall over here so i don’t have to listen to the pesky ambulances while they roll down my street?!

    Those woods near the intersection are well-known amongst our gun-toting youth as a place for target practice.

    @8. I hope that’s not true. If so, it’s time to cut those trees down.

    My dog started to freak out about 20 seconds before that happened. I ran outside to see what she was barking at and heard the clip unload about 1 block away. I called the non-emergency police line (977-9041 fyi) and reported it. I’m pretty sure they didn’t do anything.

    I suggest you wrap your drinking platform in Kevlar.

    Just for the record — it’s a magazine, not a clip.

    Can we send this article and comment stream directly to the local police? They would enjoy it.

    I’m sorry you live in the ghetto, parlie.

    Im sorry you live in Somalia, parlie.

  18. 14 May 2008 at 10:14 amGobbler said:

    No, the ghetto lives in Parlie.

    no, parlie is Somalia.

    you can take me out of the ghetto, but you can’t… stop me from… i–

    i eat food off the floor.

    Most troubling about this post and subsequent comments is that, apparently, I live very close to both parlie and Gobbler. Katy bar the door!

    You forgot me, Stanley. I’m using doof’s double-ended extension cord trick to steal power from you.

    /Thanks.

    obviuosly we need to pass legislation requiring silencers to be used on all guns after 9pm within the city limit!

  24. 15 May 2008 at 7:50 amGobbler said:

    I know a few people that could use a silencer.

    If you shoot a mime, do you have to use a silencer?

    @25 - If you shoot a mime with silencer, does anybody care?

    @25 Can you have a beef with a vegan?
