Shootout on the Streets of Sacramento: Police Powerless

Ghost gunmen killed six people and injured a dozen more around 2 a.m. Sunday, in a garden variety gang shootout. Police in Northern California are reporting Monday, April 4, that “they’re looking for multiple suspects.” Nobody expects them ever to be found.

Shootout in the street

Sacramento, California is no stranger to gunplay in the streets. The city has a rich history of public shootout incidents but lawlessness went away when enforcement began in the late 19th century.

Now that the pendulum has swung back the other way and Democrats running the city refuse to enforce anything that even smells like a law, anarchy is back. Return with us now, to those thrilling days of yesteryear, when differences were settled with lead and the quickest reflexes made the rules.

Sacramento Police were forced to drop their donuts and run when “they heard several gunshots just blocks from the California State Capitol at around 2 a.m. Sunday.” By the time they got there, the party was over. There’s a ton of video floating around though.

It seems the whole shootout was caught on tape. “Investigators said video that circulated on social media appeared to show a fight on a crowded sidewalk before the gunfire.

We know that a large fight took place just prior to the shootings and we have confirmed that there are multiple shooters,” Sacramento Police Chief Kathy Lester told reporters. That’s it. Have a nice morning.

They’re making themselves useful by cleaning up the litter. “We have located hundreds of pieces of evidence at the scene.” They proudly proclaim they removed at least one illegal gun from the streets after the shootout. “One of the items found at the scene was a stolen handgun,” Lester brags.

Police surveillance video

Police surveillance video “captured parts of the shooting” and the department is passing cash out for tips about the shootout all over the neighborhood.

They couldn’t get there fast enough to stop it or catch anyone in the act, even though police “were at the scene ‘almost immediately‘ and started life-saving measures on victims.” The victims are all confirmed to be adults and listed as three men and three women.

The scale of violence that just happened in our city is unprecedented during my 27 years here in the Sacramento Police Department,” Lester added. Nobody wants to admit that it’s the inevitable consequence of decriminalizing crime.

We either have and enforce laws or we have anarchy and settle differences in a shootout. That’s why this sort of thing is becoming a regular occurrence. It’s only the “most recent example” of “a growing gun violence crisis in the California capital.

Joe Biden blames the guns. Criminals who settle their scores with a shootout, any time and any place, aren’t the problem. Congress needs “to ‘act‘ and ban so-called ‘ghost guns,’ which are unserialized and unregulated weapons that can be bought online and assembled at home without a background check.

Those ghost guns are floating around everywhere and killing innocent Americans all by themselves. The people pulling the trigger can’t be blamed. They should be blamed, only they can’t be because we don’t enforce any laws anymore.
