just another day in the city... so many good people lost to violence 
it's like we're forgetting that we're all human beings 
shouldn't be about gun control or who's to blame, but about each other 
we gotta take care of our own community, look out for each other 
instead of just being a spectator when tragedy strikes
gun violence is such a huge issue in our cities & it feels like we r seeing way too many of these tragedies lately 
anyway, my thoughts are with the families of the victims. RIP 
and prayers for the injured person too 
. It was literally flapping around like it was still flying, but it couldn't lift off the ground. I was laughing so hard, I had to pause my browsing for a sec 
. Anyway, back to San Francisco... yeah, gun violence is such a huge issue in cities nowadays. Reminds me of that time I was trying to get a coffee and this kid accidentally dropped his latte all over the sidewalk 
.
the cops r doin ther thing tho but it feels like we need more than just hotlines & reports to make a difference 
we need community action, education & support for those who are struggling with mental health issues or have been affected by gun violence 
and the thing is, there are still people out there with info about this shooting but nobody's talking 
. I mean, can't we just have a safer city without all this drama? 
I'm not surprised that gun violence is still a major issue in urban areas though... it's been happening for ages, and we should be doing more to prevent these kinds of incidents. The fact that the suspect was caught by police quickly is a positive, but it won't bring back the victim or alleviate the pain of those affected 
i mean, i was just at my friend's place last week and they had this amazing sourdough starter that they'd been cultivating for months... apparently, it takes time and patience to get it right, but the payoff is so worth it 
, at least that way no more lives got lost. But still, one life is never enough 
police need to get to the bottom of this ASAP so justice can be served 
even if it was a weird situation. gotta feel for the families of the victims & the one who's still in the hospital 
- I mean, can't we just have a peaceful Sunday morning without some dude shooting people in broad daylight?! But at the same time... like, what if that 23-year-old was just trying to survive or something? We don't know all the circumstances yet, right? And is it really fair to say the whole city's gotta be on high alert now? I mean, we can't let fear dictate our lives, but we also can't ignore the fact that some people are out here with guns. It's like... a never-ending cycle of chaos 
. But hey, at least the authorities are trying to keep everyone safe, so props to them for that
