Wake up California!
Now they want to ban the use of police dogs – Assembly Bill 742
What message will that send seasoned and aspiring criminals?
There is a better answer… Don’t do the crime. Don’t run. Works for all colors.

Well said!
It’s about behavior not race 👍🏾
Why not release a description of the suspects if they are at large. This post isn’t very helpful.
How sick was your childhood that it turned you into a killer? Maybe it is just something in some peoples’ genes. Like a talent for music or math. My talent is hatred or stupidity.
Anybody with half a brain is going to start hoarding guns and ammo. Get cameras and lights outside your house. We desperately need to allow all law-abiding citizens to carry firearms. This is out of control. When seconds count, the police are moments away.

Based on various reports, the incident does not seem to be a random killing.

Only an idiot would use a long gun for a face to face confrontation. A pistol or revolver would have been more efficient.

Im sure CPD has obtained videos of the area since it is a retail center and are actively pursuing leads and compiling evidence.

Per scanner they did and found nothing
Wow, at 9:48 in the morning?
Even as bad as things are getting I usually feel safe running around in the mornings doing my errands and work. It’s afternoon and at night when the thugs seem to be active. I always thought that bad guys were never really ‘morning people’. Unless our politicians and leaders put a lid on this crime, and stop holding the criminal higher up than us the good public, I think American citizen is right!
According to News 24-680, the shooter ‘s accomplice was described as being “white, blond, mid-20s, 5′ 5″ to 5′ 6″ tall, 140 pounds in a creme colored hoodie.”
Being reported one arrest 19 yr made, one suspect 20 yr outstanding but they know who he is.
