Surprise: Detroit Criminals Don't Obey No-Carry Zones

So last night they had the Annual Detroit Tree Lighting.

There's quite a list of things you can't bring to attend the lighting ceremony:


Of course, weapons are banned, firearms most especially, but they seem to dislike quality cameras as well. In reading the list, pretty much everything is banned or can be banned, including underwear if it has any explicit, profane or derogatory characterizations.

Funnily enough, the ban on firearms inexplicably did not prevent two shootings:

The Detroit News: 2 shootings confirmed near Detroit tree lighting, police chief says

Criminals don't obey no carry zones - who knew?

Both shootings seems to be due to an "altercation" between two rival groups of youths with in the first shooting a 15-year-old getting a round in the neck.  The second shooting also had a "youth" getting shot and police believe the shootings are related.

I don't understand it. How could there have been shootings, when the list specifically bans firearms from the area? I have a suggestion for next year. Make all attendees go totally nude. Then rent robes, purchased from Mike Lindell, to show how open minded they are.
Of course, after the tree lighting is over, and they have those left over robes, white in color, of course, they can claim that it was invaded by the KKK. Then they can use that as a means to raise more money for the Democrat party, who is the only group that cares about minorities.
Wow, this social justice thing is easier than I thought it would be.

pigpen51: Yes, rather un-possible isn't it? As to your (im)modest proposal, I believe the TSA is looking into your suggestion regarding that process and robes for flying now.

Old NFO: Yep, funny how signs don't stop criminals isn't it?
