***The shooting happened during Moechella, which is described as an "Advocacy Festival Amplifying the Culture of Washington DC."***



Sounds like they captured the culture very well.

Can't be.

DC has made guns so hard to get.

I fear that also. No one will know or have seen anything.

Was going to say this too. This can't be a real story as DC has some of the strictest firearm laws in the country. I guess they need more laws!

I saw an interview with the chief of police. His biggest complaint seemed to be that there was a party without proper permits.

They must have got their guns in lax Indiana...

Fake news. DC strict gun control prevents this type of tragedy.

It's a good thing the shooter didn't rent a box truck. The death toll could have been staggering.

"We have a child that was killed at an event that didn’t have proper planning, with people with guns involved," [Mayor Muriel] Bowser said. "Even with police managing crowds on-site, someone used a gun and now a child is dead."

"We need some accountability here," she added.

I'll believe that when I see it.

My guess is she'll continue to call for even more gun control on the law abiding while doing everything she can to make sure those committing the crimes can't be held accountable. Cause systemic racism, or something.

It's the gun's fault...
