Three young men who were told to leave a Bakersfield house party returned early Saturday morning and opened fire into a crowd of more than 100 teenagers, injuring 14 people, authorities said.
The shooting occurred about 1 a.m. in the 600 block of Stephens Drive and left two people in critical condition, said Ray Pruitt, a spokesman for the Kern County Sheriff’s Department. All of the victims are expected to survive.
Pruitt described the suspects as black males between the ages of 16 and 19, but he said that as of Saturday night, no arrests had been made.
A girl who lives at the home where the shooting occurred was given permission to throw a party by her parents and promoted the party on social media, Pruitt said.
“At some point, people who were not invited showed up,” he said. The party swelled to at least 150 revelers and “at some point, it got out of control,” Pruitt added.

Of course they were Black. BLACK LIES MATTER. Anyone else sick of this BS I say take the gloves off. Should put a bounty on any thug of any color carrying a firearm. Should be just like deer season. I can assure you in two years time America would be a much nicer place to live.

Have you forgotten people get fired and arrested for less than what you are saying?
Why are some people's first thoughts about violence is to commit even more violence? I understand the frustration but there are better solutions than mass murder.
