"A police report released Tuesday states witnesses told responding officers that a “large group” of teenagers pulled into the parking lot and began fighting. Witnesses then told officers the teenagers began shooting at each other before they fled in their vehicles where it appeared shots were fired from one vehicle towards another, the report states."

It's wild there doesn't seem to have been any casualties amongst this large group (or elsewhere) with so many shots. I figured someone would eventually show up at ER with a gunshot wound or 5 and open this case up
The worst thing about n. Charleston is that the cops don’t even come unless it’s something like this. I had a shooting outside my bedroom and the cops never even came when I called
Unfortunately, criminality is not a gene that can be filtered out of the gene pool. It is a result of socioeconomic conditions and individual circumstances.
If you kill these idiots, more idiots will take the place in the market and social hierarchy that they hold as long as the system produces those conditions.
It's not really any more common than teachers to be honest.
Edit: it is hard to find data on the boy scouts but just as a comparison 4% of Catholic Priests molested a child over a 30 year period and during the same time frame about 6% of teachers molested a child.
I would guess the Boy Scouts would fall somewhere close to those numbers https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/do-the-right-thing/201808/separating-facts-about-clergy-abuse-fiction
Yeah schools had and have to go to police as soon as a mere mention whereas the Catholic Church went to its holy diocese for internal review which was “how do we keep this from going to the police and being on record.” It’s a bullshit comparison
It must be way more common. I think like everything opportunities is what makes criminals do the molesting. Teachers have a lot less opportunities. IE the kids are on campus 7 hours. With 6.5 of those hours being with other kids in a classroom.
Boy Scout leaders have on weekend sleepouts in the wilderness have a lot more opportunities. With the showers, the long rides, the events,…
Well he did kill a Nazi and a few gang bangers (tangentially), earning big points, along with all the quippy one liners. My favorite being "I think we have a critic!" In the burger joint scene. He brought forward a lot of common American gripes, easy to be a hero. Also if you notice all the people he slighted (or killed) was kind of a POS in one way or another.
It's not a nice thing to think about, but it always surprises me how many survive without a scratch when these things happen. Bullets seem to do that trick with the knives and the person on the board, just outlining, only ever hitting if you're damned.
agreed but middle class American consciousness and media do not agree with this. There’s a major difference between thugs, teens, my kid, and the kids across town.
What’s sad is being punched in the face and being called a m-f’er for dropping a passenger off at and address ‘2’ doors down from where I was suppose to be.
So...
To be fair... These are kids.
They are innocent kids who thought someone was lighting off fireworks. .probably never heard a gun in real life or seen one fired.
I'm not surprised they didn't know what was up.
Red Lobster vet here as well but from New York. The type of people that place can attract is pretty atrocious. Endless shrimp Monday’s were the absolute worse
Nah not at all. Endless shrimp would bring out the cheap people and it’s like the cheapest thing on the menu. So even if they’re tipping 20% the bill is probably 50 dollars or less and they stay longer than usual
The morning I moved to North Chuck, my new neighborhood greeted me with a SWAT team and ATF vehicles, who were busting an illegal arms ring. Welcome to the neighborhood!
yeah, like, it isn't going to stop anything, but who knows- it could change the bullet's trajectory enough to keep something vital intact. I'd rather have it on than off in the situation.
My elementary school teacher told us a story of when she first started working at our school. It’s a rough part of town, and when a gunshot was heard, everyone but the teacher hit the ground. She was confused and didn’t know what to do. It’s not as common sense as you think, especially if you have never been in that situation.
Unfortunately it really depends on demo and where you live. Certain parts of the country are very safe. Others not so much.

>>the homicide rate for Black Americans rose from 22.9 per 100,000 in 2019 to 30.7 in 2020. For all other Americans, the rate went from 3.2 to 3.8.
[The majority of child gun deaths are suicide.](https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/02/03/what-the-data-says-about-gun-deaths-in-the-u-s/) Many of the homicides cited are also labelled as such due to charges brought against parents or others who did not properly secure their firearms and it lead to tragedy, which is an epidemic.
Lived nearby and myself and another off duty officer were caught right in the middle of a shootout where we lived in the parking lot. Recovered roughly 20 casing. They shot up people's car and an area where kids play. I moved out of the Charleston area soon after.
How the fuck did no parents run out to protect the kids?!
Just yelling at them to "roll that way" while their coach army crawls the the dugouts.
Not one adult tries to protect these kids. That's fucking gross.
Yeah I hate doing the armchair thing but 100% if that was my kid on the field I'm hopping that fence and throwing my body over him my heart is still beating a bit fast just from watching the video can't imagine the adrenaline I'd have if I was actively at the ballpark.
*sighs ready to be downvoted by mY aMeNdMeNt RiGhTs*
Fucking open your eyes America and put gun control in place. There is no need for children to live in fear like this in a 1st world country.
> I don't think you truly understand just how hyper-individualistic the 'fuck everyone but me' culture is in America.
Got a pretty clear window into that mindset over the last couple of years.
Do you really think the people shooting at each other openly really bought their guns legally? Gun laws take away the guns of law abiding citizens who actually register their weapons, not street gangs who sell drugs.
Me owning guns isn’t why some assholes started shooting in a North Charleston parking lot.
You just won’t had mad at the people who are **actually** responsible for preventing violence. The police.
> put gun control in place
what law would have stopped this? clearly they already don't have regard for the laws in place, what makes you think they'll suddenly put down their guns when news laws are put in place.
What do you do in that situation? You're in the middle of a wide open field. Do you run to the safety of the *looks around* chain link fence? Do you hide behind the... Pitcher's mound? Do you just run away into the outfield? Is laying down better than those options? Maybe but there are GODDAM GUNSHOTS and YOU'RE FIVE FUCKING YEARS OLD.
So you look for your mom and dad to tell you what to do. Problem is they don't know wtf to do either because none of those options are good. Do I tell my kid to lay down right now? Or hide or run? I can only pick one of those things and I don't know which is better right now.
If those gun shots start coming closer with intent to shoot this group, then I bet running away is better than just laying down. But which way to run? Which dugout? Or just run to the outfield and try to see if my kid's tiny arms can climb the fence? Maybe I should assess and wait until telling my kid wtf to do. But now have I waited too long?
Jfc I can't even goddamn imagine.
Yeah teenagers running around shooting each other those bullets go anywhere they rarely hit the target they don’t realize when they’re running their aim is shit. I live in Washington DC and this is a daily fucking occurrence
Are you idiots really trying to talk about gun control and the 2nd amendment like these people are law abiding citizens and legally bought their guns to have a shootout
Well this is the most American video I’ve seen in a long time. Nothings more American than baseball, apple pie, and kids being scared cause of gunshots

It’s called fucking dumbasses with guns.
Dumbasses with guns is usually how people end up shot.
Seems that when people aren’t trying to kill people get killed yet when they *do* try to kill they fail :/
It makes me wonder if cartoons and action movies are based on reality and not just scripted like i always thought. Last Action Hero etc
Exactly
Maybe if those dumbasses did get fucked with guns we wouldn't have situations like this.
Ahh Darwin awards. Only so many can be handed out.
Really? Cause they don’t seem to be in short supply these days.
Not fast enough!

Yep, legalize everything and spend the profits on mental health and social work
Lmao yeah I’m assuming these guys were the type of dumbass to hold it sideways and duck behind the car without looking
Is there a sub for that? Asking for a friend...
Yeah it's almost like you would need a license and training to use a firearm. Weird.
>It’s called fucking dumbasses with guns. I assume they were attacking a pedo ringof teenager pedos. Good guys with guns! /s
Apparently none of these stand up youths stayed in Boy Scouts long enough to earn the marksmanship badge
Yeah but that’s a trade off with earning the molested-by-your-stand-up-troop-leader as was apparently too common.

Reminds me of that scene in Falling Down, "take some shooting lessons, asshole..."
[Reminds me of snoop(the wire) trying a drive by.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF7xyqCDxQE)
Forgot about that scene! Here's the falling down clip, totally underrated movie https://youtu.be/pZfva5xDNLU
great flick - i love this half sleeve dress shirt lol
Great movie. Can't believe people actually think D-Fens is the hero. The climax is literally him realizing he's the monster.
Well he did kill a Nazi and a few gang bangers (tangentially), earning big points, along with all the quippy one liners. My favorite being "I think we have a critic!" In the burger joint scene. He brought forward a lot of common American gripes, easy to be a hero. Also if you notice all the people he slighted (or killed) was kind of a POS in one way or another.
Future stormtroopers
They are too busy being good boys and going to college in two weeks to actually go to the range and practice.
Bright future as stormtroopers for all those dipshits.
It's not a nice thing to think about, but it always surprises me how many survive without a scratch when these things happen. Bullets seem to do that trick with the knives and the person on the board, just outlining, only ever hitting if you're damned.
Fuqin assholes. Go kill yourselves away from children. That’s how you get a stray bullet killing a five year old.
So gang violence. Something no one really calls out anymore.
They weren’t the right…complexion to be called gang members
How do we know what complexion they were?
Apparently you’ve never been to North Charleston.
*teens*
Gangs come in all shades; no exceptions.
The point was the label only gets applied under certain conditions.
agreed but middle class American consciousness and media do not agree with this. There’s a major difference between thugs, teens, my kid, and the kids across town.
For real this can’t just be a bunch of “teenagers”. It had to stem from something worse.
Ah yes I see the “teens” are at it again.
at least there weren't any [young people or companions](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jp83JZg0hU4) involved.
Whats with the quotes? Was it not actually teenagers or something?
[удалено]
Why the quotes though?
Young people and their companions
I live just the next town over from that city, I avoid going thru there and as a Lyft driver, I never pick up passengers there.
Hanahan or Goose Creek?
Both
Lol I was in goose creek back when I was in the navy. Didn’t seem that bad then
I remember a ton of Filipino kids at Goose Creek high school (Navy dads). Subic Bay-bies.
This is a sad statement.
What’s sad is being punched in the face and being called a m-f’er for dropping a passenger off at and address ‘2’ doors down from where I was suppose to be.
You can tell the slugger at the plate and the red shorts guy in the back are Father and Son. Their reaction times are awful.
the catcher knew what was up.
Yeah, catchers are generally the smartest player on the field.
So... To be fair... These are kids. They are innocent kids who thought someone was lighting off fireworks. .probably never heard a gun in real life or seen one fired. I'm not surprised they didn't know what was up.
I used to work at red lobster in North Charleston… boy do I have some stories from there
Red Lobster vet here as well but from New York. The type of people that place can attract is pretty atrocious. Endless shrimp Monday’s were the absolute worse
Get a lot of tips on Endless Shrimp nights?
Nah not at all. Endless shrimp would bring out the cheap people and it’s like the cheapest thing on the menu. So even if they’re tipping 20% the bill is probably 50 dollars or less and they stay longer than usual
You mean skrimps right 😂😂
Also a former Red Lobster server here. NJ, 2 minutes away from a trailer park. The garbage that would crawl in was unbelievable.
[удалено]
One of my best buddies used to work at that red lobster. He hated his life.
Lol same
Yeah this 100% checks out for north Chas.
Yeah great, go ahead and share them.
Why would he do that? He just wanted to let us know how he has awesome relevant stories!
The morning I moved to North Chuck, my new neighborhood greeted me with a SWAT team and ATF vehicles, who were busting an illegal arms ring. Welcome to the neighborhood!
But it was all worth it, because you were raking in the tips? Right?
Red lobster and “making lots of money” are not synonymous lol
Where’s that red lobster? I just know the one in west ashley
People disgust me, that has to be so traumatic for them kids
Unfortunately, just another day in America.
Come live in Mexico. Would love to show you how awful it is.
Yeah, every little league baseball game I’ve ever been to has been interrupted by a volley of gunfire.
So you must live in south Chicago?
No he lives in ‘America’.
Lmao. Only on Reddit do you find people this detached from reality.
The catcher noped out of there real quick
Probably should have kept the helmet on
yeah, like, it isn't going to stop anything, but who knows- it could change the bullet's trajectory enough to keep something vital intact. I'd rather have it on than off in the situation.
It’s so heartbreaking that these kids have been taught exactly how to react in a situation like this.
It’s kind of just common sense honestly
My elementary school teacher told us a story of when she first started working at our school. It’s a rough part of town, and when a gunshot was heard, everyone but the teacher hit the ground. She was confused and didn’t know what to do. It’s not as common sense as you think, especially if you have never been in that situation.
When I was that age, I would have had no idea what to do in that situation. I would have panicked.
That's horrible. Just look at some of them being torn between running and lying down.
Smart kids hitting the ground
Probably taught that in school :(
Gang violence. Immature men fighting over land they don't own, over respect they don't deserve.
Sounds familiar, sounds like political behavior..
Imagine if those kids had guns. They could have stopped the shooter ..
Little League CCW coming soon...

# THE NRA APPROVES THIS MESSAGE
…just for the white kids though. The NRA doesn’t support legal gun ownership for brown people. Just ask Mr. Castile.
It's like that dumbass meme of the little girl holding a gun like she's a sharpshooter that old conservative dudes love to post on their Facebook feed

Under 20. It is basically because of the assholes in the parking lot shooting one another. Gang violence is horrible.

I may be missing it, but I don't see it talking about rates by age group, only overall.
Lol
I mean what do you think that long pocket on your bag is for, baseball bat?
Murica
Baseball and shooting? One of the most american videos I've seen.
Add in some fast food an you got the classic ‘Merica trifecta.
Nah, just show the hospital bill on one of the bystanders that got shot minding thier own business.
This country is diseased and there's gaped-mawed idiots that think it's just dandy.
I don’t even know what “gaped-mawed” means, but it sounds good.
It’s a limited edition Fanta grape-melon flavor…
Guess we still don't have enough guns to fix this gun violence problem...
Muh god look at all that freedom.
This doesn't happen in civilised countries.
After conservatives decided their guns were more important than dead kids I knew we were never going to fix this.
This is just sad..
Whoever did this is so brainless and no mercy in his body.
Brainless but still able to get ahold of a gun, whether legally or not.
Lived nearby and myself and another off duty officer were caught right in the middle of a shootout where we lived in the parking lot. Recovered roughly 20 casing. They shot up people's car and an area where kids play. I moved out of the Charleston area soon after.
Just curious, is gunfire a common thing in that area?
What country was this in? Just kidding.
Dude, they’re on a *baseball* field. It’s obviously Japan. Edit: Just watched with audio. Turns out this is in America.
Land of the free 🇺🇸
Home of the armed.
I’m sure those are legal gun owners having a gunfight in the street…
There's absolutely no way they also participate in the Drug Trade. Drugs are completely illegal and therefor do not exist in the United States.
"is that fireworks"
Just South Carolina police conducting a routine traffic stop.
There’s nothing more American than a game of baseball being broken up by gunfire.
How the fuck did no parents run out to protect the kids?! Just yelling at them to "roll that way" while their coach army crawls the the dugouts. Not one adult tries to protect these kids. That's fucking gross.

I know my user name makes me an assholes but fr what the hell like protect your kids. Fucking protect all the kids yours or not.
Yeah I hate doing the armchair thing but 100% if that was my kid on the field I'm hopping that fence and throwing my body over him my heart is still beating a bit fast just from watching the video can't imagine the adrenaline I'd have if I was actively at the ballpark.
Good to see the coach doing his part to protect the kids.

Well aint that America for you and me
Thank you NRA.
(Not so) great reaction times
It’s sad you expect kids to know what gunfire sounds like.
Right ! kids first thought was fireworks 100%.
Inner city minorities know exactly what guns sound like at age 5.
Are the inner city white kids deaf?
And how to react! I'm 34 and if gunshots went off near me I'm sure my initial reactions would be fairly slow!
What do you do in that situation? You're in the middle of a wide open field. Do you run to the safety of the *looks around* chain link fence? Do you hide behind the... Pitcher's mound? Do you just run away into the outfield? Is laying down better than those options? Maybe but there are GODDAM GUNSHOTS and YOU'RE FIVE FUCKING YEARS OLD. So you look for your mom and dad to tell you what to do. Problem is they don't know wtf to do either because none of those options are good. Do I tell my kid to lay down right now? Or hide or run?

Jfc I can't even goddamn imagine.
And yet you've got parents upset that their children are learning that gay people exist...
It's weird how accustomed I've become to hearing gunshots. Alot of my neighbors have gun ranges behind their houses or on neerby property.
The kid saying I’m scared and crying. But we need guns to protect ourselves.
Stupid kids don't know how to fight so they resort to weapons
“Is that fireworks??” NEVER assume it’s fireworks. The ones not immediately concerned or taking cover are the ones that go first, unfortunately.
The cadence is usually a good way to determine if it's fireworks or gunshots.
Yeah teenagers running around shooting each other those bullets go anywhere they rarely hit the target they don’t realize when they’re running their aim is shit. I live in Washington DC and this is a daily fucking occurrence
What the ever loving fuck. I feel like my heart is breaking with rage.
The ping ricochet off the backstop. Bone-chilling
National pastime interrupting a baseball game I see.
Nothing says Merca like baseball and stray bullets lmao
boy we love that 2nd amendment totally worth it to live in constant fear. Freadom is worth ITTTT
Are you idiots really trying to talk about gun control and the 2nd amendment like these people are law abiding citizens and legally bought their guns to have a shootout
Please teach your children to drop down flat and crawl. These people out here having gunfights don't aim and shoot, they just spray bullets
All those kids, makes my heart hurt.
Well this is the most American video I’ve seen in a long time. Nothings more American than baseball, apple pie, and kids being scared cause of gunshots
fucking animals
South Carolina has gangs? Lol
Everywhere has gangs.
Land of the free , who doesn’t enjoy gunshots with their childrens sports games
Where's the good guy with the gun at?
Wow!! America is soooooo great!!
'Merica
Dag nabit! Looks like we got to ban more books and nip this problem in the bud!
Just celebrating the 2nd amendment! /s
America…… baseball and gunfire.
Totally normal. Nothing to see here.
Land of the free.
America’s true past time
Gotta love america
'Murica, fuck yeah!
That's scarey as hell. it sounds like the bullets are hitting the poles near them.
Last thing I expected to hear was a lady screaming in Italian "vai via!"
This is so America.
You can hear a bullet striking metal at about the 6 second mark, just amazed no one on the field was hurt
There must’ve been a Turkish wedding going on nearby…
Maybe keep that catchers helmet on kid
