We've had a lot of shootings going on around here and lately its picked up. Gang related. The following is from one of our local tv stations:
"The family of a man shot and killed in Portland last Friday said the killer called them to apologize.
Deangelo Oliver, 29, was killed in the shooting, near the intersection of SE 89th and Division and two other people were injured.
Police believe the shooting was gang-related.
Oliver’s aunt told the Oregonian that the shooter, who is still on the run, called the family to apologize. They said they know the shooter and don’t want to release his name.
Police said that kind of response was common when it comes to gang violence".
Well. How 'bout that. Such a good mannered young man, right? I think this screams volumes about the nature of the family involved.
Sometimes its so frustrating that I think okay...let them kill each other then. But that leaves all those random bullets searching for a place to explode. Those are the ones that kill bystanders so that's not an answer. Not an acceptable one.
I wonder if the young man/teen called to apologize because he doesn't want the family coming after him for retaliation. Gangland vengence. Well, good luck with that.
