For some perspective, the referenced shootings below have taken place in a geographically small area as well.

Gangs, drugs and guns.

Sorry, but 11 shootings in 4 days is over the top, geographically small area or not.

In the spectrum of things, STT and STX are geographically miniscule locations.

11 shootings, no suspects, no arrests.

Unthinkable for a tiny rural population.

Great line from rapper PushaT's song "Sunshine" - "Grandma praying someday, but God can't hear it over gun play."

(tu) Wow, someone quoting Pusha T. Amazing. This is like when I quoted Jay-Z in a philosophy class.

What Jay-Z lyrics did you quote in the philosophy class?

What Jay-Z lyrics did you quote in the philosophy class?

"Is Pious pious cause God loves pious?
Socrates asked whose bias do y'all seek?"

It was a reference to Plato’s Euthyphro in the song "No Church in the Wild".

Preach it, cre! 🙂 There is some conscious rap, and it's getting more exposure thanks to Obama's favorite song by Kendrick - "How Much a Dolla' Cost." I may not agree with Kendrick's philosophy, but the lyrics are thought provoking.
