Potentially twenty-five people were injured, four shot, and killed in Five Points South, Alabama. It sounds like a hit, possible gang activity. Police don’t know if it was a drive-by or the killers were on foot.

“When you lock into a number, that number typically changes,” Spokesperson Officer Fitzgerald said. “We’re not going to lock into a number right now, but when we finalize that, we will notify the media.”

No one is in custody.

“These mass shootings have more to do with culture than they do criminality,’’ Birmingham Police Officer Truman Fitzgerald said. “Mayor Randall Woodfin said it best this week — we’re seeing far too many arguments being settled by bullets, and I think this speaks to exactly what our mayor recently said.”

Democrats will scream this is a mass shooting and legal gun owners must give up their guns, but they count gang shootings in the numbers.

The killers likely had converted the guns into automatics with a switch.

Here’s what we know:
  • At least four people were killed and dozens more injured at Five Points South
  • Multiple shooters opened fire just after 11 p.m. on Saturday
  • No suspects are in custody as of early Sunday
  • Ten victims are being treated at UAB Hospital

Birmingham police said multiple people fired multiple shots on a group of people just after 11 p.m. Saturday night in Birmingham Five Points South. It happened outside Hush, a hookah and cigar lounge on Magnolia Avenue.

No one is in custody at this time, according to police.

Two men and a woman were found unresponsive with gunshot wounds when police arrived, and then more gunshot victims were found. Those three victims died on the scene, and another died at the hospital.

At least four of the gunshot victims have life-threatening injuries. The rest have “various injuries,” police said.

When you remove all deterents, punishments and natural fear expect killers to rise and dominate the field.

They need to fired that damned George Soros-funded District Attorney and and all the politicians and complicit Law Enforcement officers calling for more “Gun Control” and start talking about enforcing gun laws and locking criminals up! Full Auto weapons have been illegal since what 1937? Or many the Gun Control Act of 1986? What new law can you pass to make them illegal again???? You add 10-15 years onto a prison sentence for a gun crime, they won’t be out there shooting for a maybe 70 years. They are so stupid, rhetoric, rhetoric, rhetoric – never enforcement of hundreds of laws and enhanced sentences. ATF in Montgomery area is investigating 19 gun crimes with the same Glock! No arrests.

Since this only involved black people, it will be gone from the news by Monday. Only the white males get weeks of coverage, and only then when they are painted as “right wing.”
