Teen activist was killed by friend who was shooting at a car when his final shot went into the activists forehead.

Doh.

The teen activist was active in Good Kids Mad City and Voyce a group that wants police officers removed from schools.

The prosecutor said it was tragic on so many levels.

That story is recounting events that happened in 2018.
Tragic, yes. But apple news is passing it off as current (for those who never read past the headline).
Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

I think the mom wrote it to commemorate the 2 nd anniversary of her sons death. Never let a tragedy go to waste.

Chicago postal workers threaten to stop delivering the mail in Chicago. Four have been shot recently while delivering the mail. This would be in violation of the postman's oath

"Neither Rain, Nor Sleet, Nor hail of bullets, Shall Stay These Couriers From The Swift Completion Of Their Appointed Rounds."

No matter, Chicago doesn't need postmen to get all those fraudulent mail in ballots to the counting centers anyway.

I guess nobody in the car was hit since they didn't mention it. I found it amusing they had to say his "final shot". I'd be surprised if he kept shooting after killing his friend.

And the kid that got shot didn't feel the need to step off to the side or behind the shooter? Muzzle blast wasn't a bit tough on the ears? I think I see DARWIN in this incident!
