in my hood

We like to play a game called "gunshots or fireworks". I just heard 8 booms in a row. I got a text from a friend a block away saying "8 this time, gunshots or fireworks?" I said "let's go with fireworks because of the timing of the booms" To be honest, they sounded like gunshots. A few minutes later there was a huge BOOM. I got another text from her saying "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? Meth lab or grenade?" It sounded more like an explosion. Fuckin people. It gets cold outside and everyone loses their damn mind.

 

Do you live in Afghanistan?

 

Almost worse, Ohio. lol

 

Good one.

 

usually a loud single bang is a car wreck. Gunshots typically come in multiples in quick succession.

 

I live in Iowa.

 

poachers ..

 

haha, poaching what? squirrel? I live in the middle of the city.

 

Iowa has some really ghetto parts

 

Just because its iowa don't make it exempt from da hood/ghetto. Most likely a street pharmacist prescribed bad medicine and another called him on it.
Wonder who won? 8 shot's means a chance of a 'showdown' lmao.

 

8 rounds means someone is a lousy shot. Somebody needs some target practice. My side of town has a bad reputation but its actually pretty safe. There are parts of the city that are worse by far. I live on the blue collar, working class side of town. We usually respect each other around here.

 

A lousy shot or they wanted to make absolutely certain the person was dead and they were super angry.


That will teach the damn dog for licking the carpet! haha

 

I think I know Wiz well enough to say he would absolutely never shoot his dog for licking the carpet. If there is one thing that doesn't fly on this side of town it's animal abuse. People would get shot over that shit. Wiz lives too far away from me to hear gunfire from his house anyway.

 

I didn't even know you guys live in the same town, and it was a j-o-k-e.

 

8 rounds is what a common size magazine holds. Or at least my Saturday night special lol. Its cold and snowy, Unless there is a body and calls, they are not going to look too much into it.
Its the type that will get caught and karmas a bitch when it adds up.

 

when we get big booms here it's usually a meth lab. never heard gunshots around though

 

Maybe it was some pyro kids stuffing aluminum foil down in 2 liter bottles full of toilet cleaner?

 

There was a long period of time in my specific neighborhood in which people would put poison cat food out on their porches
we lost like 11 in a year. It was pretty surprising to me. it's a really old neighborhood full of hippies and yuppies and the like.
must be the fake disillusioned ones.

 

either that or the crazy old army vets. you know how they get …

 

He lives about an hour away from me, give or take. I'm sorry I don't think dead dogs are funny.

That's exactly what I said to my husband after I counted the "shots" if that's what they were. I said "8 round clip" Shortly after I heard them I was listening to the police scanner and someone had called to report shots fired in the neighborhood. Not that the cops do much about that. It's not like the person will still be standing around with the gun out waiting for the cops to show up. Unless there is blood or a body they don't bother.
