BPR: Tragedy has marred yet another national holiday, with a mass shooting in Florida at a family-friendly Martin Luther King Jr. Day event that left eight people wounded and one in critical condition.
Residents were gathered in Ilous Ellis Park in Fort Pierce, Fla., for an “MLK Car Show & Family Fun Day” when shots rang out near the park at around 5:20 pm, according to the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office.
“Today, Chief Deputy Hester and I were honored to be in the Martin Luther King Jr. parade along Martin Luther King Blvd,” Sheriff Ken Mascara said in a statement posted to Facebook. “Sadly, within hours of that parade ending, we are investigating a shooting in a county park located at Avenue M and 13th Street in which 8 people have been shot.” more
Should I assume that shootings on Martin L. King Day is from White Supremacists ?? I’m sure Sheila Jackson Lee will get right on that with some new relevant legislation proposal …
More proof that we don’t have a gun problem in this country.
We have a culture problem in this country!
It would be a lot safer if everyone was at work instead…
I don’t think they liked the new statue in Boston.
Par for the ghetto course.
‘Family friendly mass shooting’
*wrinkles nose and scratches head*
I can only hope they were shot because of the quality of their character and not the color of their skin.
HAP HAPPY MLK Jr Day!
nature or Nurture ?
Inquiring minds don’t care.
I’m surprised that this didn’t happen in Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans or any other democrap run inner city ghetto.
Ft. Pierce is very much a run down city. They need to stop letting the Amish run wild like this.
Lyndon Baines Johnson’s “Great Society” Boondoggle was instrumental in bringing this to America.
May he burn in Hell for what he did!
