Here's the story:
Woman shoots up Hixson neighborhood
and here's Charles P. Pierce's comments:
I half-heard something about this on CNN last night, in between stories about the latest missing airliner.
Police said Shields, blonde and wearing body armor, raced through the neighborhood, past well-manicured lawns and simple brick houses, firing multiple shots out her window at people and cars. Chattanooga police officers received a report of shots fired at 1300 Cloverdale and arrived at 3:52 p.m. Friday, according to a news release. Officers found two people who said they were at a stop sign when a woman pulled up in a dark-colored sedan and fired shots into their vehicle, hitting and disabling the radiator. Then more calls reported a woman pointing a firearm at people as she passed them in her car, and that she fired at another vehicle in the same area. Police found Shields sitting in her vehicle in the Stuart Heights Baptist Church Parking lot on Hixson Pike, the release stated.
This woman shoots up an entire neighborhood and will be alive to stand trial. It's a good thing she didn't sell loose cigarettes, or wave a BB gun, or fail to respond promptly to an officer's request to get the fck back up on the sidewalk.
Perhaps there's another factor here that I'm missing.
Hmmm.....
