Violent and Deadly Easter Weekend in Shreveport
Easter usually is a time for celebration. Families gather together to enjoy the company of each, celebrate rebirth and, if you're religious, celebrate the resurrection of Jesus from the dead being crucified. Historically speaking, it's a happy time and a time for rejoice and revelry. However, this weekend in Shreveport, there was very little to celebrate as numerous people were shot and two lost their lives to senseless violence. Shreveport typically, per capita, is one of the most violent and deadliest cities in America. And that trend did not take a holiday break.
