The Caribbean Festival haaaa. Any repeat violent offenders dare I ask ? 1/2 the people there is the answer.

 

[Zappa]

This happens every year at that festival, I'm surprised there isn't some smart entrepreneur set up there selling bullet proof vests out of a vending truck.

 

[Sparkey]

They won’t shut that festival down because that would be racist but they just can’t behave shootings at that festival every year

There's an Irish festival happening today in Manchester, how many people do you predict will get shot ???

Just out of idle curiosity what is the over/under that any of the people arrested are legally licensed gun owners do you think? (insert sarcasm here)

And Irish sunglasses by morning…

My late Grandfather was robbed and mugged there ~1961. He had just cashed his ~$65.00 Social Security check and he lived in that area.

partyers of color

"A Caribbean American festival was scheduled to take place today nearby at Franklin Park. Last year, one person was killed, and several more were injured during the J'ouvert and Carnival Parade."

Keeping the tradition alive.

Edit - @SIGNES , I am staying within DEI guidelines, I would also make a joke about a drunken brawl at a St. Patrick's Day celebration.

 

[SS1]

I like this headline better....

7 Injured During Shooting in Heavily Gun Controlled Massachusetts

Seven people were injured during a shooting Saturday morning during the Boston Caribbean Carnival celebration in heavily gun controlled Massachusetts.

[Zappa]

Channel 7 is has now upped the total of carribean festival shooting victims to 8.

And the number of people shot at the Irish festival is zero.

 

[LTCRN]

Only eight, no big deal! Let's schedule it again for next year and hope things don't repeat themselves or get worse. I would consider the festival a success if the number of shootings declined next year. This would show that mine and my administration's progressive approach to crime is working and fundamentally sound!

Was it the Irish or the Italian guys that mugged him??

 

[Len-2A Training]

Unknown. BPD never investigated the crime. A black cab driver found him and drove him to Boston City Hospital ER and that's all that we ever learned. The assault caused brain damage and he ended up in a nursing home until he died.

All 12 people who show up?

Seriously? You are holding up Manchester as a beacon of civilized behavior?

 

[ridleyman]

It's just one of the activities at the festival, like the dunking booth. What's the big deal?

They wont shut it down because jerk chicken is amazing

I was gonna say. Caribbean food is BOMB. Prob one of the main reasons the festival keeps going despite shootings.

To die for...

 

[safetyfirst2125]

Celebratory gunfire?

 

[jkelly1229]

To die for...

The object of a gun fight isn't to die defending your jerk chicken but kill the other poor bastard so you can eat his

“Gerald Vick, 30, and Dwayne Francis, 30, both of Dorchester, were arrested and will be arraigned Monday in Dorchester District Court on a charge of unlawful possession of a firearm.”

I guess they didn’t want to wait to get their LTC
