The shooting, near the zoo during its annual African American Family Celebration, came as a large number of officers were already in the area.

"We were not expecting this, but we had a heavy police presence," Cmdr. Reese said in an evening press conference.

When American Negroes gather, does the violence occur randomly or is the violence a tradition? The cops weren't "expecting" it, but it seems they were waiting for it.

It does seem it was just a coincidence that there was a heavy police presense at the event since no violence was expected.

“...during its annual African American Family Celebration...”

So when is the annual Caucasian Family Celebration, or the Asian Family Celebration?

Someone told me, it’s all happening at the zoo.
I do believe it, I do believe it’s true.

Police: 2 men shot outside National Zoo

D.C. Police Commander Michael Reese says a large group of 30 to 50 people were walking southbound on Connecticut Avenue and a person in the group produced a handgun and fired several rounds.

A police source tells FOX 5 some of the people in the group were inside the zoo and some of them never went inside. The source also says investigators are looking at a possible grudge between two neighborhood groups as a motive for the violence.

The man who was shot in the hand may have shot himself accidentally and was not cooperating with detectives, according to the police source.

Reese says police do not have a suspect description at this time and are asking for anyone who witnessed or have any information about the shooting to contact police. Police say they have not recovered the gun that was used in the shooting.

So no one knows nothing about nothing but I'm sure it's the NRA's fault.

It’s truly sad that large gatherings of blacks are almost always violent.

Do they not realize the damage they are doing to their own community and to the way the rest of us look at them?

Ah yes, that one day during the year in DC when the most dangerous animals at the zoo are outside of the cages.

The Urban Feral in all their glory. Clearly someone was “dissed” and deserved to be shot for their lack of appropriate respect.

“We were not expecting this, but we had a heavy police presence,”

Translating from the NewSpeak:

“We were expecting something like this which is why we had a heavy police presence.”
