The wonderful world of Rap

Rapper Shoots After Boos
(WSB Radio) He was looking for a shot at fame. Instead, police in Conyers are looking for the man who shot up a night club.
Police say the gunman opened fire after he was booed on stage during a rap music contest.

It was at the Decades club, at 1211 Royal Drive, just after midnight last Sunday. The club had been rented out by a group holding the contest.

Investigators say the gunman took the stage, but could not handle the criticism he received, so he pulled a gun and fired into the ceiling.

People ran for the exits as the shooter brandished his gun. In the parking lot he fired more shots, then drove off.

No one was reportedly hurt during the incident, but the club was damaged.

Conyers Police Chief David Cathcart says investigators found shell casings on the stage, and in the parking lot outside. But, he adds, it appears the shooter was not trying to hurt anyone. Cathcart says it seems more like a scare tactic.

Witnesses describe the shooter as being 5'6, and weighing approximately 220 pounds. The suspect was seen leaving in a silver Chevrolet Malibu.

A bad thing to do, obviously.
Maybe this fellow had a similar problem to that dude in Omaha, Nebraska at that big mall? He needed attention and help badly.
We shut down all the crazy houses during Reagan's administration and hoped that the newly invented pills would allow them to live among us. The trouble is, they take them all at once and go bats--or can't afford them without robbing someone!
I suppose we will be forced to go back to exterminating crazy people as we did a few hundred years ago. We will have to do so to save ourself!
Hope those guys who stole the 80 or so Guns at Autrey's aren't rappers!
The old straight-jackets may not be used so much now in an insane asylum with regulated dispensing of pills. Shock therapy or water-boarding however have been re-approved!
