PING not only to the event, but also the interesting detail of the "gunshot tracker"...

For thus has the Lord said unto me:
“Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”
Isaiah 21:6

These silly “gunshot” locators are “wonderful tools for Law Enforcement “, because they alert them to the presence of gunshots.

The reality is what good are they? Anyone with half a brain shoots someone, then bolts from the location, not sticks around for the cops to show up.

They spend money on this stuff and argue it has value to the police, when they are “after the fact” items which produce zilch in terms of usable intelligence. At some point the public has to start demanding the the police start showing results from the stuff that they buy, not the marketing pablum of the manufacturers.

“ShotSpotter helps law enforcement to save lives, and enhance the quality of life in our communities.” Bullshit, it does none of that. It sucks up real money that could be sent elsewhere more effectively.

Go to the ShotSpotter website, under gun violence resources you will see a sub-heading for “community organizers” “Reducing gun violence must be a core objective.....” blah, blah, blah. It’s meaningless blather intended to sell the product which does absolutely nothing but consume money and divert resources from other PROVEN law enforcement techniques.

Any politician who buys any of this junk should be charged with criminal malfeasance and dereliction of duty.

This stuff has zero value, zero deterrent value, zero perpetrator apprehension value.

This is a national tragedy. An entire Bible Study Class delivering Meals-on-Wheels to elderly shut-in white ladies ... gone. Musically, this is to the aspiring rap world what the Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, Big Bopper plane crash was to rock'n'roll!

The White Republican KKK members who perpetrated this dastardly act must, must I say, be brought to justice. And just where was Officer Wilson when this happened?
