The Drive-by Shooting

Drive-by shooting at the bar I was at last night.  I stopped by this morning and checked in with a bouncer who said police recovered 50 AK-47 casings.  He witnessed the attack; a car drove by slowly without headlights and attracted the bouncers' attention.  A few minutes later it doubled back, parked near the outdoor patio and opened fire.  

I heard the initial single-shot pops but dismissed them.  Then the bouncers came running in, trying to get everybody down and under cover.  Then there was a burst of what could have been full-auto fire, perhaps 20 or 30 rounds.    

See these four bullet holes?

I was sitting on the other side.  HAHAHAHAHA!!  Unbelievable.

Looks like I really dodged a bullet this time.  Or maybe four.

Responding officer was wearing a ballistic helmet.  You don't see that every day.

This bar is apparently a hang-out for some alt-right people.  The owner of this vehicle had his tires slashed nine times.  They closed the bar and I went home but about fifteen minutes later I heard a second shooting within 1/4 mile of my house, a total of maybe ten shots in 30 seconds.  I have no idea where or why but it seems too coincidental for two shootings within an hour of each other.  This is a peaceful area.

I've found no mention of this in the local news or the 2nd shooting.  I wonder how much of this isn't reported, just like the extreme Antifa activities in downtown Portland.  I won't be surprised if this is an Antifa escalation into the "suburbs" as has been widely anticipated.  

As near as I can tell, nobody was hit.

Especially me.   :)
