Gunshots in Goleta around 11:30 pm. What in the heck is going on?
-
Numerous Sheriff’s vehicles in the Ellwood/Santa Barbara Shores area for gunshots. Heard multiple rounds but haven’t heard of any victims or injuries. Bizzare.
Booom boom. Pow.
Is gunfire now so common in Santa Barbara and Goleta and Carp that we have become jaded about it? Not me.
This is what gun control in California looks like – the strictest laws in the nation.
People who use guns are boring. They lack imagination. Put down the gun, read a book.
When seconds count help is only minutes away .
Although still not very strict by civilized standards.
People with guns. So yesterday. Yawn.
