Oakland rapper 'Kenny Clutch' killed in Las Vegas Strip shooting
They said Cherry and the occupants of the Range Rover had left the Aria resort hotel and were heading north on Las Vegas Boulevard at 4:20 a.m., an hour when the casino marquees shine brightly but the gambling thoroughfare is largely empty. At Harmon Avenue, occupants inside the Range Rover opened fire on the Maserati, police said.
The newspaper reported that Cherry had several arrests in Oakland and Berkeley, many for gun charges. He was convicted on a gun charge in 2007, stemming from an arrest in Berkeley, sources told the Tribune, although details on that conviction weren't immediately available.
It's obvious that there are people who cannot, or will not, exercise the self-discipline or responsibility that the 2nd Amendment to our Constitution implicitly requires. I think that everyone would agree that people who behave thusly have voluntarily relinquished their civil rights — especially their right to bear arms. Why then is there even one 'lawmaker' insistent on burdening law-abiding citizens with more restrictions on their civil rights, while at the same time remaining silent on the proper enforcement of the laws that already exist?
