Shooting in my neighborhood, at MY CAR [View all]

Last night there was a shooting right outside my house. They evidently were shooting at someone running down the block in front of my house and shot up a bunch of cars, including mine. I don't think they killed anyone, but now my car is full of bullet holes! Fuck Guns!!!!!!
