These days whenever you have crowds of young urban males (and enough females) together it seems you will always have just enough violent degenerate thugs to make it potentially dangerous and downright miserable for anyone who doesn't embrace that culture who happens to be present. It doesn't mean that everyone there is a violent criminal, it does mean that now there is enough of an acceptance for that culture that the few that are will generally be driving the show and the inevitable consequences. The rest of us avoid at all costs these events because of the few there you can count on and predict that will ruin it for everyone.

It is a culture that baffles me, the acceptance of it by so many even more so.

FL's gun laws are pretty lenient, and Miami's most recent mayor was Republican. Miami is majority Dem but not exclusively Dem.

We go through this every Memorial Day ! Multiple shootings and dumb punks acting the fool! Residents usually leave!
Yep. Best to stay away during the ghetto-week. This time they are considering doing something about it though.

You would think the Miami Police Dept. would be available to stop this behavior and actually enforce a law or two.
They did enforce the law. Didn't you see the video?

There were outbreaks and violence in cities all over this past weekend.

Several beach sections had to be closed and crowds of youth dispersed because of fighting.
Myrtle Beach, Rochester Beach, Long Island, Charlotte and Nashville just to name a few.

You needed to stay in a gated community where you will feel nice and secure at all times.

the political leadership blames the violence on too many guns instead of not enough family discipline.

the police force is more concerned about protecting union benefits than the people of the community.

the people demand that the government raise their kids.

law abiding people aren't allowed to own guns while the non-law abiding people have no qualms about owning guns.

activities like armed robbery, rape, murder, narcotics distribution and wearing your pants around your knees is seen as a result of long-ago slavery and not the results of a failed culture.

-and-

the Democratic party doesn't even need to try anymore because the voters have no idea there are real alternatives.
Gotta say it --- what a load of crap....

I'd like to see the law enforced before people are shot.

(Unless the shooter had no priors which is highly unlikely).
