Everyone has probably heard about the mass murders in Matthapan on Tuesday morning around 1AM. I live in Milton so I felt like this was to close for comfort. There were four killed and one hanging on for dear life, but not expected to survive his injuries. The story is very odd, because the victims killed were either in their pajamas or naked on the street. The victims were all in their twenties, except for a toddler that was killed in his mother's arms. This is the most tragic story and so upsetting. Police have not told the media if they have any new leads, besides recovering the gray SUV that was seen fleeing the scene. On Tuesday I watched a half hour show about violence in Boston over the years on Channel 5. This show was very disturbing, because it proved that guns are everywhere. Apparently, you can buy or get a gun as long as you know the right people. People who were interviewed said that youth and adults are carrying guns in order to protect themselves. What I don't understand is how the police is not regulating? I understand they have more important things to do than bother teen, but those teens are going to be the ones causing violence in the future. I worry for our country, because it is becoming like every man for himself. Does anyone else agree???
Here is an article from Boston.com about the story:
