Really? Really?!?

You've got to wonder about the culture where gunfights erupt at funerals
DECATUR, Alabama -- While Decatur police attempted to unravel the case surrounding the June 2 shooting death of 33-year-old Houston Glenn Blackwood, some of the victim's friends and family were getting into a post-funeral fight that ended with one man being shot in the neck. tnut Street -- to the same apartment complex where Blackwood was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds -- to find Komak Love with a gunshot wound to his neck. Love was taken to Huntsville Hospital by MedFlight, and is expected to make a full recovery, Decatur police said in a statement.
Yet, the circle of violence continues.
(CBS) DECATUR, Ga. - While at a wake on Tuesday for a shooting victim, Camenthia Antwan Dixon, 21, was arrested for allegedly bringing a stolen gun, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Police said Dixon had the gun in his pocket. Dixon was attending a wake for Carlos Henderson Jr., 19, gunned down at a shooting last week after a funeral, reported the Constitution. Also killed in that shooting was 28-year-old Delmetrius Heard. He and Dixon shot each other in the parking lot of Victory of the World Church.
The latter one is utterly confusing.  Lemme see if I've got it straight.  Delmetrius Heard and Carlos Henderson went to a funeral last week and got into a gunfight in the parking lot of the church.  So, they've got to have more funerals and Camenthia Dixon brings a gun to the funeral and was arrested because the gun was stolen.

I'm in awe of the culture that produces morons like this.  Evidently it's okay to shoot someone, then go to the funeral and shoot-up the family.  Or something.  Of course, with mothers who would name their child Komak or Camenthia can't be too damned smart in the first place.

I'm sure that the Rev'rund Jackson will be along shortly to decry the circle of violence.  Yeah, I'm sure that he and Big Al Sharpton will be along shortly.

Of course. Who else would have enough name recognition to blame the gun companies?
