didn't Jeb say we'd be safer if we were all armed?
There are a lot of disturbed people out there with guns

Actually they are all armed. Just like Chicago.

Just like Chicago, it's getting to be an almost daily occurrence here.
When people say more armed citizens

Is a good thing I just shake my head in disbelief.
This  
ctc in ftmyers : 7/25/2016 12:19 pm : link
is purely gang/beef related.

One who died was going to be a senior in high school this year. Just got back from playing in an aau basketball tournament in Orlando.

The other was going into 8th grade.

This isn't about guns. it's about kids, yes kids, killing each other.

It was a bathing suit/ beach party for kids during summer. No ID required.

These were middle and high school kids.
Here is a article

Bill

What the hell are you talking about?

Gang related crap the took the lives of 2 innocent bystanders that appeared by all reports to have promising futures.

Many others wounded.
in cases like these

I wonder if the shooters are first-time killers or have done this before. If it's the former, does the reality of their intended action just totally elude them somehow? Do they then later reflect on how they killed someone and altered dozens of lives for reasons that are likely incredible petty?

Different night, but I wouldn't let my 14 year old in that club.

That night is 18 and up. It's a different party, probably run by a different set of promoters. Not sure what the relevance has to do with the teen night. Many venues are completely different based on the promoters or musicians - it's no different from a concert having different clientele based on the artists who are playing.
At 12:30 AM.....

what's a 12 year old doing there? I don't care who the entertainment is.

Read the last link I posted.

Short version. Apparently, 2 guys, A Hispanic and a Black get into a pissing match. Both get their boys. They battle at the club and 2 other houses.

Turf wars reality show coming to you. IMHO.

School starts here in 2 weeks. The teen night was an end of summer vacation thing.

Well it's summer, and drank before sundown is disgusting and low class.

That was the whole idea. Pool party theme.

If you wore a bathing suit, cover charge was $5.00.

So now you have a bunch of teenage girls dressed in a way that makes Hooters girls uniforms seem suitable for a black tie affair. No testosterone in that room.

Now you have young Black and Hispanic gang members thrown into the mix.

What possibly could go wrong?

By the way, there were armed guards inside and out.

Because there were multiple shooters from all over, it was hard to nail them down.

It was basically a drive by with a lot of people in the way.
