WASHINGTON - A teenage boy is dead and a D.C. police officer is struggling for her life after a mass shooting at a cookout early Sunday in Southeast D.C.

There were 21 victims in total wounded at the scene, police say.

Neighbors described chaos after shots rang out at the party around 12:20 a.m. in the 3300 block of Dubois Place, Southeast.

17-year-old Christopher "Poppy" Brown later died at a nearby hospital.

Firefighters at the scene told FOX 5 they transported nine other victims to hospitals. Other victims walked themselves to hospitals or fire stations for treatment.

Police placed more than 100 evidence placards at the scene.

If only there had been a social worker there to calm everybody down and peacefully resolve the situation...

He was not only a father at 17, his first child is already a one year old and he has another on the way. Don’t know if from the same mother.

This one was certainly not the Amish. The headline reads, “Mass Shooting,” so probably Carmelite Nuns.

Or his previous book “Neutrinos in the Hood. Do nuclear events cause crime to rise?”

Elton John prophetized this in 1973. Saturday Nights Alright for Fighting.

Not in Southeast DC (Anacostia, Ward 8), where this shooting occurred. It’s been a s-—hole at least since the 1970s, when I lived in the DC area.

12:30 AM. Dubois SE is a very bad area. Bound to happen.

“Cookout” at 1220 AM?
Midnight buffet I guess.

Only place I want to read ‘Midnight Buffet’ is on the cruise industry opening back up thread.

He was not only a father at 17, his first child is already a one year old and he has another on the way. Don’t know if from the same mother.

And no doubt he was working on yet another dumber-than-dirt girl at the cookout to become his next baby mama. We, the responsible taxpayers, get to pay for his benighted offspring. And their mothers, unless they are highly unusual enough to get their necessary academic education to get a decent job, will be lifelong recipients of OUR tax dollars as well. "Reparations"? There's your reparations, bub.

Absolutely! Feral yutes killing each other. Who cares.

The only downside is apparently a police officer was injured.

Definitely “defund” the police. Meaning police disengage from interacting with feral Big city tribal warfare. Let them all kill each other. Maybe they will learn how to contribute to civilization once enough are dead.

On a side note, if Corn Pop doesn't vote for Biden, he ain't black!

Obviously they haven’t defunded the police enough yet.

They’ve made it clear they don’t want our support around this. Not My problem.

Indeed. White people are not even to speak of this, lest they be called “racist." There’s action I can take, and my concern is not wanted. All I can do is avoid it.
