Oxymoron Of The Day

4 were people shot at a Unity concert featuring George Clinton in Cleveland, OH. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer: Four people -- three males and a female -- were shot Saturday night at about 10 p.m. at Luke Easter Park during the eighth annual Unity in the Park festival.
All of the wounded are being treated at MetroHealth Medical Center, said police Sgt. Sammy Morris.
A spokeswoman at Cleveland's Emergency Medical Services reported that two of the people shot are in critical condition. Two others were stable.
Authorities said they were searching for a male suspect who pulled out a handgun and fired into a group of people during the fight. No arrests were reported in the hours after the shooting, Morris told the Associated Press.
"It was a large fight. Somebody in the crowd produced a handgun and fired several times," Morris said, adding all four victims were hit by gunfire.
A 16-year-old boy had a gunshot wound to the head and a 20-year-old woman suffered a gunshot wound to the neck, police said. A police statement added that a 14-year-old boy and a 23-year-old man also were hospitalized -- each with a gunshot wound in the left leg. None of the four were identified by name.

Nothing like having a 100 person brawl and a shooting that injures 4 people all in the name of unity.
Hate to see what happens at a concert for AIDS or for the homeless.
