So much violence to have occured. So much more to come if we do not fix our law enforcement. How many more have to lose their lives before we realize its time to start firing people?

Almost a win win. Two pieces of trash we dont have to worry about.Now if they would all kill each other off, we might have a livable city

I was at the crime scene at 8am. I was dropping off my friend who lives directly above the apartment where the shootout started. It was horrific, Ive never seen ANYTHING like it. I know that the shooting started around 2:30am. I am almost positive that the man that died was result of 3 shotgun wounds, and drug himself about 20-40 feet where he died. there was so much blood, like I said, " horrific". My prayers go out to this mans family and loved ones, I am so sorry for the pain you all are enduring. My friends who liveupstairs from this are very lucky, the bullet holes missed their place by a foot or so.

Jen: Sorry to break your illusionary bubble, but this is what happens late Friday night-early Saturday morning. It will continue happening as long as alcohol is an acceptable substance. Sorry to break it to you, but even your beloved Mayor is a dope dealer because alcohol is the most dangerous drug the world has ever known. CHARR and other such groups are liars. Keep alcohol out of your home and away from your kids and tell them just how dangerous this drug is if you love them enough to care what becomes of them as they grow.

Wes, Where in the "Article" does it state the time this occured? I've read it several times & NOWHERE does it state the time other than early Saturday morning, which could mean 1 am to 8 am. Where did you get your information? were you there?

Near Russian Jack Park? Looks a bit closer to Costco but still in Mountain View.

That time of night? Who is out that time of night? Do you think alcohol might be involved? Oh, I forgot, this is a world of responsible drinkers! Not!
