Did you know there was another mass shooting in Louisiana this week?

My, I can hardly keep track these days:

A man armed with an assault rifle opened fire at a crowded park in Desire Sunday (July 26), shooting at least four people, including a man left critically wounded, New Orleans police said.

The attack came around 6:20 p.m., when Edith Sampson Playground Park at the corner of Piety and Treasure streets was crowded with family gatherings and several children were playing inside two inflatable “space walkers,” witnesses said.

“I was scared for my life,” said one woman, who asked that her name be withheld for fear of retaliation. “All those children was out there. I just got down and was saying, ‘Everybody lay on the ground!’ It was sad.”

One man, described as about 28 to 30 years old, was gravely wounded in the attack, suffering multiple gunshot wounds to his chest and side, police said. He was transported by New Orleans EMS ambulance to Interim LSU Hospital in critical condition, NOPD spokesman Officer Frank Robertson said.

  1. Here, maybe this will help you keep track, well, at least up to approximately last weekend. Wow. What a fucked up country.

  2. Wonder how it got SO fucked up? Why not just blame it on the black prez? Or the NRA, or the nutcakes who see “their” country fading into the hands of people of color. Fuck it, blame it on the Simpsons!
