Gunfire Stops Alabama High School Football Game!

Shots fired at an Alabama high school football game.

On Friday night, there were shots fired near an Alabama high school stadium. The gunfire got fans, coaches, referees and players dropping to the ground. No injuries reported and the play was able to resume.

The gunfire erupted at Center Point High School with about five minutes to play. The school was playing against rival Mortimer Jordan High School in the final minutes of the game.

Jefferson County sheriff Mark Pettway had been at the football game, but it wasn't immmediately clear if he was still there at the football game when the gunfire erupted.

"We've got some shots fired in the (inaudible) at the Center Point game. Let me get some units," a call from the stadium said.

After a search of the stadium, the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office came up empty handed, and called it a false report.

This scare comes just one week after 10 people were shot following a high school football game in Alabama.

How many people are going to be injured or killed by firearms?

Thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers won't heal the wounded or bring back the dead. It's just meaningless platitudes and I am getting sick and tired of folks posting on social media saying they have their condolences for those killed by gun violence.

I repeat myself over and over again! I am getting really tired of dealing with mass shootings.

THERE IS NO GOD.

GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

Why is this happening in America?
