So remember yesterday, when the Blob wrote about San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich being fed up to here with America the Calibrated, all those unhinged gunslingers shooting up schools and places of worship and businesses on a damn near daily basis?
Well, yesterday it came home.
Wednesday evening, over on Raymond Street on Fort Wayne's east side, friends and family gathered to remember a 19-year-old who'd died from gunshot wounds just the day before. And then the guns came out. Again.
When the shooting stopped, one more person was dead and three others were wounded.
While they were remembering another shooting victim.
Who'd been gunned down -- and we can't emphasize this enough -- just the day before.
It happened amid children's playground equipment in McCormick Park, which the Blob knows very well. Passed it a million times growing up in the years my dad worked for International Harvester, one street over from the park.
I can't even. Cannot. Even.
When does it stop?
Will it ever stop?
