Let the scum kill themselves. Mac. PD needs to have a thumbs on approach toward gang prevention. I would like them to stop and frisk if they see punks flashing colors.

@Yourright, I must be missing something in this article. Where does it say the shooting was gang related?

I wonder if he was carrying loaded or if it was unloaded and then he loaded it at the last minute to shoot. It is illegal to carry loaded in this city now, not just he parks like the NR packaged it as.
Oh, that's right, that was just a ban for law-abiding citizens. Not the gangs, thugs, an criminals.
Hows PDX gang problem, and general shootings been doing since they enacted an identical feel good do nothing law 23 months ago...spoiler alert, its practically doubled each year since enactment.
