Stanley “Tookie” Williams Executed: Shots Fired Outside Funeral
A Crip mourner in his colors salutes Tookie.
Patterico has alerted Flap to this story that the Los Angeles Times missed.
Shots fired outside Tookie’s funeral
Neither the L.A. Times nor the Daily News mentioned the gang tensions at Tookie Williams’ funeral yesterday, but KPCC’s Frank Stoltze did. His report included audio of some arguing between rival gang factions that were kept separated by Nation of Islam members. Clearly audible toward the end are three shots fired outside the church. No one was injured. Audio. (La Opinión did pick up on the gunplay.)
What a profound effect Tookie’s books and lectures have had on the community.
Those folks ars still in gangs and banging away………
