Wild shootout on Upper West Side, multiple shots fired, no one hurt!

The trouble with these untrained shootists is that they so often wound and kill innocent bystanders, instead of or in addition to each other. I doubt anyone will miss the gangbangers, other than, maybe, their Baby Mommas, but why should the innocent suffer?

Circling Back. I neglected to mention the high cost to society when these lousy shooters wound and paralyze instead of delivering a kill shot: “Up to $1 million the first year, up to $181,000 each year thereafter”, according to this CNN article from 2014. Training and skill development is essential. Maybe the NRA should sponsor free clinics, proof of gang membership required.
