I love the city I live in. The idiots I live in it with, however, are maddening.
In a nutshell, some kids were goofing around at home when one, who was playing with a loaded gun, accidentally shot another in the head. As tragic as it is (and it is tragic), some community activist dope had this to say:
“It’s a shame. I do support the mayor and the efforts that he’s doing with gun control. But we have to do more. I think what’s happened is we just have a bunch of kids who are idle. And they just need an opportunity to do things. Unfortunately, they’re cooped up in the house. We need more recreation centers and stuff like that. I think that would give them an opportunity to survive a little longer.”
Wait, WHAT?
You need more recreation centers to know not to fuck around with a gun?
I anxiously await the return of Bill Clinton’s wildly successful Midnight Basketball program.
