I wonder if the new Shotspotter system helped notify the authorities here.

Cameras? This is happening too often. Glad the victim wasn’t SERIOUSLY hurt, and sorry victim was hurt at all.

Victim is really not a victim but a player in the road rage game. Keep it 100, you know you did something to provoke the shooting.

Hey MAGA! You’re not a real “MAGA.” so knock it off already! You’re nothing but an impostor trying to give us real MAGAs a bad name! Have your psychiatrist adjust your meds!
