First It Was Dak
« on: March 30, 2015, 04:59:17 PM »
Now, dey shootin' err'body up in here.  Spring break has changed.  I know I'm old but back when we used to take the horse and buggy to the beach, things just didn't seem this wacked out.  Now it's beatings, shootings, rape etc. You would think Spring Break Central was in Tuscaloosa.  from the foxnewzdotkum

PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. –  A house party that dissolved into a hail of gunfire and left seven young people hurt has officials on the Florida Panhandle pondering what to do with a spring break season they say has gotten out of control.

The raucous parties in the spring break capital of Panama City Beach have had politicians, police and businesses tussling for years over how much to crack down on a key economic force.

That debate was revived again when a packed gathering of dancing 20-somethings turned into a sprawling crime scene early Saturday.

"This is what we've been trying to warn people about," said Bay County Sheriff Frank McKeithen. "It was only a matter of time and it's only a matter of time until it happens again if we don't address it."

The city council held an emergency meeting Saturday to address spring break, allocating up to $200,000 in additional spending for increased police patrols. But motions introduced by Councilman Keith Curry to ban alcohol on the beach and to roll back the last-call on alcohol sales two hours earlier to midnight were unsuccessful.

"We have blood on our hands," Curry told his fellow council members.

McKeithen had urged the beach alcohol ban and midnight last-call last year, but council members decided against them, instead rolling back last-call from 4 a.m. to 2 a.m. Curry said Sunday he realized they made a mistake as he went on patrols with police in recent weeks, saw the drug arrests for heroin and an increasingly popular club drug called Molly, as well as the number of guns that have been confiscated.

"It was woefully inadequate," he said.

David Jamichael Daniels, 22, of Mobile, Alabama, has been charged with seven counts of attempted murder in the shooting and remained at the Bay County Jail. Bond was set on Sunday at $575,000, said Ruth Corley, a spokeswoman for the sheriff's office.

A .40-caliber handgun believed to have been used by Daniels was found in the yard of a nearby home. He does not yet have an attorney.

Officials gave no update Sunday on the condition of the victims, three of whom were listed as critical a day earlier, and three who were stable. The condition of a seventh victim was not released. Three of the victims were students at Alabama A&M University, where a candlelight vigil was planned for the campus quad in Normal, Alabama, on Monday evening.

Even as talk of change sounded, typical signs of the season resumed in Panama City Beach. By sunset on Saturday, new tenants had moved into the three-story vacation rental where the shooting took place. Dozens of cases of beer filled the front porch of a neighboring house where loud music thumped inside. And hundreds strolled the main road and gathered at hotel swimming pools.

Desiree Richardson, 18, and five of her girlfriends loaded up their belongings Sunday as they prepared to drive back to Alabama State University, saddened by the news of the shooting.

"I don't know if my parents will let me come back," Richardson said.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Was he a AssCracka blasta, or was this before the war?

True story:

We had a port in the eastern Mediterranean (Aksaz Turkey) that was referred to by us sailors as Asscrack, and not for a good reason.

The place sucked. It's one of the few places that made you wish you were back out at sea.

12% of the population commits 87% of the crime.  Who's surprised?

If they would just legalize Cannabis, people wouldn't be drunk and shooting others.

They'd just be shooting each other over the Cannabis. People who want to shoot other people will find a way to shoot other people. And now that the cops aren't allowed to do anything without federal prosecution, it's only going to get worse.

This happened right in front of Schooners. These things are getting too close to our quiet end of the beach. People try to get away from the rifraf, but the rifraf finds the customers!

Young people today have no shame and are letting anything go.

I'm the old guy asking them to calm down. And if I think you are rowdy, then you are a bit overboard!

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
