A video of a shooting at a local gas station appeared on Facebook recently. The video is posted below and shows two women fighting among a crowd of young people at the gas station at the intersection of Newman and Northside Drive. One of the two combatants pulls out a gun and begins shooting into the crowd. The amateur videographer said that the crowd had been at a "Stop the Violence" rally.
The first video shows a fight break out between two women at the gas station.
The shooting takes place in the second video at 4:50.
Kingfish note: Disgusting and idiotic.

Idiotic and disgusting, yes. However, this is acceptable behavior with too many “young adults” in Jackson. Can this environment of violence be changed? Obviously parenting is key; but, until the judges and the DA aggressively adjudicate these cases the behavior will only continue.
OK, I'm officially sick.
"Disgusting and idiotic," KF? I'd say that's a gross understatement. Not the worst of it, but I lost count of how many time the "videographer" referred to her "mofo car". Sadly, this is my old neighborhood. Used to walk that part of Northside every day going to/from Watkins Elementary.
This is a major cause of gun violence between individuals in many cities across our country. Instead of taking the loss and living another day, she just place others life in peril along with putting herself in prison if she killed her antagonist. Conflict resolution with peace is a necessary.

for a bunch of 'disadvantaged youths ' ,they are all in pretty nice cars
Decent video quality. JPD should have no problem making an identification and pressing charges for aggravated assault / attempted murder.
So long as she doesn't draw Judge Green, she should be locked up for a good amount of time.
Anyone who criticizes this activity as unacceptable is suffering from a deep lack of cultural sensitivity. This type of richly diverse activity is common around the world. It is time for everyone to accept that the 21st century is not going to be like the last.
I'm glad our muthafuckin' correspondent finally found her muthafuckin' cah!
Nothing like a little muthafuckin' gunfire to scatter de whole muthafuckin' herd!
The sad part to me is that there seems to be several hundred people that just considered this situation to be “normal” until the gun came out. At that point, it was “slightly out of hand”, and when she actually started shooting it was finally considered to be “slightly abnormal behavior”. Of course, they only seemed to be concerned about random gunfire hitting them. No concern whatsoever for the “b*tch (videographers term) that was about to get capped.
For the love of God....That is awful. Like a bunch of rabid dogs.....
@3:26 oh, so that what she was saying.
Pause the video right when the perp comes on the screen and you can see a huge shiner on her right eye she got from that last swift kick to the face. So there is that.
If it weren't for members of the Community milling about, one could not tell that this gas station/food mart was even open.
"Stop the Violence Rally"? For real?!! How's that working for you?
"ain't no cheese puffs today"
Exactly why I lasted one year as a teacher in JPS. Who wants to deal with these hhod-rats everyday?
Reminder to self--keep my gun.
Do white liberals ever see what they have created and think they are wrong?

6:49 pm for the win!
6:49 with the post of the month.
Another reason not to come near Jackson.
Since my original post must have been to on the nose for KF to post, I’ve softened it up a bit.
Many people like myself have left Jackson over the years not just because of crime but also to escape the culture among some urban youths who think violence and guns are the answer to every conflict. What these lost youth fail to realize is that innocent bystanders could be hurt by their careless actions. I prefer to minimize my odds of getting caught up in such foolishness by not living in and avoiding doing much business in Jackson, and videos like this confirm in my mind that I made the right decision.
@3:26....that is all I could think watching the video. Your post wins the day.
Fortunately the thugs and thugettes don't have good shooting skills, because they hold their pistols sideways, gangsta-style.
While Jackson had its share of crime in the 70s and 80s (when I grew up there), it was still a nice place to live--especially in the right areas in and outside the city. We now live in a really nice town outside of Birmingham (almost as bad as Jackson). If we ever moved back, there's no way I'd live within 5-10 miles of the city limits. It's sad to say that about a place I was born and raised.
What blows my mind is the fact the girl that was badly beaten, had no friends with her. Several girls were asking who was she there with , no friends spoke up so some girls drug her back into the truck
I honestly yvb
