Deputies say the shots were fired during an altercation between the apartment's occupants.

According to authorities, one victim was killed and a second victim is wounded but in stable condition.

Been a while since Pakistan was in the news. That neighborhood has gotten a lot safer since the glory days, but nowhere is safe in BR these days.

I got the notification on my phone earlier.. Like I say, at this point we need threads when there is a day when there are no shootings in BR.

Meh. Gardere has been crap since the 1980s. I'm still surprised they built giant apartment complexes there as recently as they did.

From the picture in the news article, it appears the homicide occurred at the Meadows at Nicholson. Yes, that would be the new apartment complex adjacent to Gardere.

A lot of the older, shittier ones were torn down and replaced with.....


....a literal sewer treatment plant.

Unfortunately there are still a lot of smaller duplexes and fourplexes that aren't going to be easily bought up en masse and torn down.

This is a daily reminder for the media or anyone still buying what BLM is selling that this one shooting on one night in Baton Rouge produced 2 people being shot which is only 7 less black people shot than the entire year of police shootings in 2019 of unarmed black people by police.

There is a systemic problem but it certainly isn't what the media and liberals want to actually talk about.

You need to remember to use the asterisk next to BLM:


Black Lives Matter*








*only black lives taken by white police officers.

Such a prestigious address - mere steps from a casino and women's penitentiary.

(ETA: And how could I forget the sewage treatment plant?)
