    Gee male blacks at Lakewood shopping center? What else is new? And of course the ORIGINAL post made no mention of ID of the perps. Why did you cover it up? What are you afraid of? Sure is great to see how the gangsters always pay attention to the ultra strict anti-firearms laws in CA. Don’t they know that Senator Diane Frankenstein hates concealed weapons and regular citizens defending themselves!? What a JOKE! But it gets the limousine liberals like Boxer, Frankenstein, Linda Sanchez & Tony Rendon elected time and time and time again!
