How Many More, Mr. Mayor? How Many More?
UPDATED (5/27/05) at bottom of post.
On my way to work this morning, we (I've been carpooling with my neighbor while my Jeep's been in the shop this week) drove by this taped-off crime scene off of Centre Street in Jamaica Plain. Several police cars and the BPD Crime Scene Investigation unit were at the scene, adjacent to a local gas station. We figured it was most likely a robbery at the gas station, but I just now heard on the radio what happened there late last night or early this morning.
Police investigate killing of elderly Boston woman
Another proud day indeed for Mayor Menino, Attorney General Reilly, and the rest of the state's anti-liberty, gun-grabbing, hack politicians. Allow me to extend a hearty congratulations to the whole despicable lot of you - that grand scheme of yours is really paying off now.
Assholes.
I gotta say, with this Nor'easter pummeling the area with cold temperatures, heavy wind, and rain, I figured the local violent criminal population would take a little break from their regularly scheduled workload until at least this weekend. Guess that didn't happen.

Police investigate killing of elderly Boston woman
(Boston - AP) — Boston police are investigating the apparent murder of an elderly woman whose body was found in her Jamaica Plain home.
Police are not releasing the woman's name, but neighbors tell WHDH — TV she was a 97-year-old woman who lived alone in the multi-family house on Saint John Street.
Officer John Boyle says the body was discovered shortly before 4 a-m after police received information that led them to the location.
Boyle says the case is considered a homicide and no arrests have been made.
