Come over to Shreveport for some good family fun, but please avoid our local citizens.

Yes. More guns in the hands of anyone but racial-jungle kangs (and other violent criminals). So boot the Soros DAs and enforce the criminal laws we have and enforce the United States Constitution.

I know rule of written law is a difficult concept for useful idiot statist drones.

Tragic. So sad for this kids family. Should be worth noting that shreveport actually has lowered their murder rate the last couple of years where as BR and NOLA have only increased, so may be worth looking at this one up as more of what happens where the worst elements of society and local teenagers both attend an event. So put on that vest and carry your protection down in NOLA where its even worse.

Should be ten years minimum for illegal possession of a firearm and life for 2nd offense. I support stop and frisk, too.

Nope. I disagree. If you aren't in prison you should be able to own a firearm.

They don't do the 5 years minimum now.
95% likely plead down and rest might due a actual 2 years.

Local teens who were there and witnessed it are saying it was a large group of very drunk Bossier teens who got into an altercation. They know who shooter is and yes, as previous poster said, it’s alleged yeehaw baws.

This thread is heating up now.

While everyone takes the time to blame race or politics, I'd just like to say RIP to this young man and send thoughts and prayers to his family. It's sad this happened, no matter who did it.
