Why would someone gun down mourners?

Makes you wonder how these bad guys got their guns; where did they come from, and how did they go from legal to illegal?

From Reuters and the AP by way of MSNBC:

Gunman fires on mourners of man killed on Las Vegas strip

Suspect mingled with funeral-goers before shooting 7 people, police say

LAS VEGAS — A gunman who at first appeared to mingle with funeral-goers on Wednesday later sprayed bullets at those paying respects to a man stabbed to death on the Las Vegas strip, police said.

"An individual ... wearing a red shirt approached a group of mourners who were outside the funeral and appeared to mingle," police spokesman Bill Cassel said. "After a few moments this individual opened fire."

The victims' injuries were not life-threatening. Cassell said six adults and one juvenile were wounded.

The incident occurred at just before 7 p.m. local time (10 p.m. ET) at the Palm Mortuary,
The Las Vegas Sun reported.

Cassell said police were looking for a white car with spoke chrome rims and a purple and brown design on the side as a vehicle of interest in the case.

Police do not know if the shooting was gang-related or how it was tied to Elena's stabbing, The Sun reported.

  1. Okay you're on. That is unbelievable isn't it? It's insane in an increasingly insane world. I better shut up but shooting Gabby in the head, mourners or any other innocents deserves instant death because they had malice before thought and they did it period.

  2. Gangland burial means target rich environment if you are the opposition.

    Yep. Either gang or drug related.

    an average patriot is partially right.
