Police: 4 people shot and killed "execution-style" on Indy's near-west side.

[Roland of Gilead]

No it doesn't. And we all engage in behaviors that may lead us to an untimely end. It's when those behaviors make taking others with you a likelihood that I tend to lose sympathy.

Well said, I can wrap my head around your comment.

Looks like no one got shot in Indy last night. Maybe that trend will continue, maybe the news sites haven't updated yet. Ok, nobody got shot, trying to be positive here.

the positive is, no innocent lives were claimed overnight.
the shootings themselves don't even bother me anymore. It was when an innocent citizen gets caught up in it that bother me.

Too cold last night to be outside.

Yeah, I've never been on the scene of a crime when the temperature was below freezing.

Bunny fur lined jack boots are just for show. Tragic.

And the hat is definitely overkill.

Mailbox theft is down in bad weather, comes back when it warms up. I can see how shootings would be down, everyone is all bundled up and you can't tell who is who.

They still happen in cold weather.

Robberies go up. Easier when mask, gloves, scarf are common apparel and it's dark earlier.

Good point. Kind of easy to spot the baddies wearing a ski mask in July.

It seems to me this all comes down to Parents and peer group. No parents.... hang out with bad peer group. You become who you associate with... repeat cycle.

Peer pressure and lack of parenting &parenting skills as a lot to do with societal behavior issues. No doubt!

There's a "March to Stop Violence" today in this neighborhood. Whew! Glad that'll put an end to all this nonsense once and for all.

I was just watching that on the news, to bad all the thugs are in bed after a long night of banging, they will miss the whole parade...


What a joke!

There's not a pro-violence march, which if you think about it that's too bad. IMPD could show up and serve warrants on half of them.

Seriously, all the marches in the world won't do what a couple of people providing info to the police will do. I can understand not wanting to be seen on the news saying anything but "I don't know nothing." Close the bedroom door, go in the closet, close that door. Take the wadded-up card from the detective out of your pocket and make the call. If we're here now, where will we be in 20 years?

But, but,
we have to "raise awareness"

I saw that on the news last night.
Mixed emotions on this.
Start telling the LEO who the A$$hats are.
LEO puts them in jail.
Charges are dropped and A$$hats roam the area beating folks for telling on them.
System has flaws.
Prosecutors are not doing the job.

I won't be surprised if there is a drive-by shooting during this march.

I'm sure the 10 Point Coalition will be out in force doing absolutely nothing productive, as usual.
