These innocent people are now injured and one dead due to the selfish act of these two men. In my opinion, you should not drag your personal problems in public because things like this could happen. I can't imagine an arguement becoming so intense that you pull out a gun, better yet, shooting people who aren't even involved. It seems like almost every other day history repeats itself and there are shootings/acts of violence that take a toll on our communities. I pray that those injured can have a healthy recovery and the family and friends of the one who lost his life, can pick themselves up after such a loss. I hope the police officers find the suspects soon.

Melanie Escalante- shooting during Bayou Classic Weekend
While celebrating Bayou Classic Weekend in New Orleans, two men were continuing a heated arguement that led to a shootout. It was that Sunday in the French Quarter at the intersection of Iberville and Bourbon streets that their guns shot one person dead and injured nine others. Apparently the men did not have intentions of shooting anyone and are believed to be visitors. Police hold valuable information that could lead to a speedy identifications of the suspects.

ReplyDeleteThat is so sad! Violence will pretty soon be an everyday way of life pretty soon in the feature.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I was actually at the Bayou Classic this past weekend. I think people have gotten out of control with these shootings. People are loosing lives because of the problems of others
ReplyDeleteViolence is never the answer . Its sad to see innocent people killed. Hope for a better a day.
ReplyDeleteMore shootings, not a surprise anymore, its more a surprise when there's not a shooting in a week, and that's sad.
ReplyDeleteI agree that you shouldn't drag your personal problems in public. All the innocent people never deserved to be hurt let alone killed. I think it is completely unnecessary for these men to have a shootout over their argument. If they ended up firing their guns, then why would they say they had no intentions of hurting anyone? With a gun out and around in the hands of people(I am not saying police), i would think it is quite likely someone would end up being hurt. Settling an argument with shooting is certainly not at all a resolution.
ReplyDeleteIts sad that innocent people have been affected by something that had nothing to do with them.People need to find a safe way to cope with their problems.
