Right, 2nd incident this year. I love how people just continue think these types of occurances are oh no big deal. Just a random thing, doop dee doo. These things should never happen and yeah you SHOULD be worried when they do. You are probably the same type of person who walked in the woman's march or go to black lives matter protests yet a gang member shooting at a shopping mall is just another day to you.

Let me guess, it was overrun by people from Easton.

anyone recall the Tara right near there anyway for work I had to stay there back in the mid eighty's.

Cars were stolen there and the Mall. My car got locks out but the Tara had security so my car was safe but for locks
and deal with the insurance.

Yes i remember the Sheraton tara. Now there's a tgi Fridays there...right next to it is, legal seafood, starbucks, five guys. The stores and restaurants have gotten better but the people have gotten worse. I guess chains draw in low ranking clientele.

Jul 14, 2000 Officers Cleared in Rapper Assault

QUINCY, Mass. (AP) - Two police officers were acquitted on charges they
assaulted a Boston-area rap musician last summer.

The officers used pepper spray when they arrested Raymond ``Ray Dog'' Scott,
34, for disorderly conduct after questioning him about credit card purchases
he made at South Shore Plaza.

After the verdict, `Don't be mad because I have money and you
don't,'' said Scott, an Easton resident.

So what do you propose? Socioeconomic apartheid? We already mostly have it in housing and public schools. Do we need an RFID card linking to your credit score, gross income, and police record to enter a shopping mall? Or do we just gentrify every square inch inside 128 and push them to Brockton and what is apparently now Brockton-lite next door in Easton?

Unfortunately, the issue with a free society is the dregs are free, too. This gang banger will be locked up until his testosterone level drops. That seems to be the solution these days.

What if we could devise a way to biochemically neuter gang-bangers and other similar thugs instead of relying on costly incarceration? It would be a good, quick punishment and also might make them permanently more docile and law abiding after the application. This would only be applied to convicted, violent criminals.

Yes, that's where Chuck Stuart stayed before he threw himself off the bridge.
