Three shootings in the DTES

CTV is reporting that "A woman was badly injured in what Vancouver police say is the third shooting in five days in the city. The latest victim was found with gunshot wounds early Thursday morning in the Downtown Eastside, police said in a statement the same day."

These are likely not gang related but more likely an example of how completely pout of control the DTES has become. What we are doing there isn't working. That tent city of defiant lawlessness needs to come down. They are filled with crime and exploitation.
