Shootings in LA are mostly concentrated in areas like Compton and Southern LA, and even then they are taken care of. Shootings like this are actually not common in LA, quite the contrary.

It happens mainly in poorer areas, however many areas which are popular like Santa Monica, Venice, and Long Beach have humongous crime rates for such small cities/towns. It's disgraceful - especially for kids to go through these things.

Good thing California has all those strict gun laws that are supposed to prevent these things

But they don't and yet people get shot everyday. Gang violence has gotten so bad that it is becoming a generational thing were parent's teach their kids that the gang life is a normal life style.

Lol wtf Santa Monica is one of the richest neighborhoods in LA. So is Venice, but Long Beach is just like... stuff. Long Beach is the ghetto beach. Santa Monica's got crime in its southern area which is more industrial due to the airport. Venice doesn't have any crime because it costs like 5 mil to live there.

Also, i was supposed to go to LAX today.

This forum seems to a have an obsession with science. Like when the government shutdown some people where like "Meh, whatever who cares about the government shutdown. WAIT! HOW DARE THEY SHUT DOWN NASA!".

Welcome to the modern world were grumpy politicians use someone's tragedy as a means to win their point. There have been too many shootings by crazy people and the antigun crowd is going to use this event as an example and the pro-gun group will fight tooth and nail.

If you have the stomach, read those comments and see what society has become

And so Gorillaz becomes increasingly more relevant.

This is a difficult problem to stop. It's not the guns, but the people, but how do you convince people to not shoot other people?

I was just providing information for further discussion.
I care about the victims; it was a terrible and awful tragedy and the guy who did it deserves to be killed.
