Eight people were shot, leaving one dead, in West Baltimore Sunday evening as police say a man opened fire on a cookout.

Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison said the gunman approached two cookouts at the corner of Edmondson and Whitmore avenues and began firing indiscriminately into the crowd, striking several men and women.

Harrison said that one man ran toward the Perkins Square Baptist Church and was later found dead . Six of the victims were taken to area hospitals with non-life threatening injuries. A police spokeswoman later said an eighth victim, an adult man, walked into a hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg.

1. One more mass shooting and not a God damn thing..

.. will be done.

It is the guns. End of story.

Btw they can cram their thoughts and prayers.

2. As long as guns are a dime-a-dozen then many mass shootings are...

...inevitable.

3. I have hunted and owned guns for years but ..

... how much longer is this insanity gonna keep going?

Japan has something like 10 gun murders per year and that is because they don't have all those fucking guns.


This mass shooting will be the last one until we have the next one.

4. I was just wondering if Trump will talk about this and call one of the survivors but I doubt it...

...after he is so stupid he thinks that all MD is full of Dems even though it is in his backyard!
