The quick and the stupid

Initially portrayed in the media as "a good kid" with a future, it turns out this guy had a date with destiny all along.
Jose Hierro Saez traded punches with the two men police believe killed him in a drive-by shooting but he never traded gunfire with them -- he was shot before he had a chance to pull a loaded gun from his waistband.
It turns out his posse were just as smart and loyal...
Leaving their friend dead on the pavement, the other four men ran off into the townhouse complex, where an ambulance picked them up and took them to hospital.

"Let me make this clear -- there were people riding in that car who were shot at, people who were with the person who is now deceased, who are not assisting this investigation...," Raybould said.
So tell me Mr. McGuinty... what sort of gun control nonsense would have prevented this senseless tragedy?

Here's a thought... how about proper parenting?

UPDATE: Or we could go with "tough love"
Seven hundred officers from Toronto and other parts of the southern Ontario were involved in the raids, which police are calling Project Kryptic.

Police say they have arrested leaders and members of the Driftwood Crips gang and seized 30 Kg of cocaine, hash oil and marijuana with an estimated sreet value of $1-million. Dozens of firearms were also found.

"We know that this strategy works. We know that this work must continue," Chief Blair said.
Betcha that got their attention.

LAST WORD: The quick, the stupid & the whiner
"How am I supposed to clean this?" she demands. "This is what happened when they raid your house. Look at the mess in the house! How am I supposed to clean that? You should see the bedroom upstairs. I can't clean it!"
