At 10:45 pm on Friday night on Bedford Avenue and North 9th St., in the middle of crowds of people on their way to bars and shows, a man was shot outside the bar Trix, the New York Times reports. Was it random? Did the shooter and the victim know each other? We don’t know, although the victim is expected to live. The 94th Precinct has a relatively low crime rate — only one murder last year — which explains why some bystanders didn’t even realize it was a shooting. Meanwhile, out in Brownsville last night, six people, including two children, were injured in a drive-by shooting. The Brownsville shooting took place in one of the NYPD’s Operation Impact Zones.

Let’s start looking into the causes- why are people violent and desperate? What causes these things? Economic disparity? Social injustice? Maybe?
