Not cool at all. I know somebody that died that day.
I'm sorry for your loss. There are war zones in inner cities with similar incidents since then, just not as many killed. You need to wear thrift store clothing and drive an older vehicle when shopping in some really dicey areas.
If you Google any FF in a bad area, unfortunately, there will be gang events that spill on FF property. Google any FF restaurant and any major metro city and you will find multiple incidents.
You need to know where your shopping and be careful. You can't just drive in from the suburbs with a $80K+ vehicle and sit inside and blend in.
I have a nice car and a beater car. I dress down for the rough areas and drive the old car.
