I appreciate the blogger updating the residents of Long Beach, it's too bad our newspapers and television station's don't EVER report the news as it happens in Long Beach!
of course, because an officer was shot. otherwise there would've been half that many.
tottaly agree !!! same in lynwood,ca so many things happen but u never see it come out in T.V ...
not true there been pulled over alot for my music and it takes 7 cops at gun point to get my wife and myslef out just to write a ticket
This is a newspaper blog by the way, I work for the Press-Telegram.
these's officers were wrong for what they did to them young men.. police are trained on many different physical excercises to get up and run and use other techniquez when handling victoms and emergencies...but if you havent noticed all they do is go str8 for there guns and ready to take someone's life..in this case the police said that they had to open fire on theses young men because an officer got hit by a bullet that suspose to have canme from the victim..but come to find out the bullet that was found in that officers body was from another officers gun..NOW THAT WAS TOTALLY WORNG FOR THEM TO KILL THAT YOUNG BOY FOR NOTHING...THERE'S NO JUSTICE ANYMORE...

I'm excited to be finally posting online after all these years. There really is no mystery about it, is there? I just dropped by your blog and had to write something. I'm a recent college grad, journalism major if you must know, and I absolutely love the art of photography. I've got my site up but it's nothing to brag about yet. None of my stuff's been posted. Soon as I figure out how to do that, I'll spend the afternoon posting my best shots. anyhow just thought I'd drop a line. I hope to return with more substantial stuff, stuff you can actually use. SPG
