At about 10:30 p.m., Seattle police received a call about a shooting on Rainier Ave S and S Graham Street. When officers arrived, they found a 15-year-old boy lying on the sidewalk, with a gunshot wound to the stomach. The boy was transported to Harborview, where he died sometime later.

<description><![CDATA[<p>Very sad.</p>

<p>It will be interesting to see if the shots did, indeed, come from an unknown location or if the boys are following some cockeyed "creed of the streets" by not ratting out the person who killed their friend.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>3 Blocks from my house... and it's not Hillman city BTW, the neighborhood is called Brighton. "Rainier Valley" would make a more accurate, non-untrue headline.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>off topic.</p>

<p>Why ignore the Obama is stalling story?</p>

<p>Politico:</p>

<p><a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12334.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12334.html</a></p>

<p>"Depending upon the week in June or July, by Gallup’s measure, Obama has roughly fluctuated between splitting or, at worst, trailing by about five percent with white women. In that same period, Obama has only won between 34 percent and 37 percent of white men. </p>

<p>"In general — and with men in particular — Pew's data shows that Obama's gains with young whites compared to Gore in 2000 are offset by a weakness with older whites. </p>

<p>"Obama also seems to have hit a ceiling with Hispanics. Latino support fluctuates between 57 percent, by the latest weekly measure, to 68 percent the week before — roughly the margin of Hispanic support that has marked the entire summer, by Gallup's measure. </p>

<p>"What all this suggests is a general election that is much tighter than many analysts predicted and defined by far more stubborn levels of support. </p>

<p>"As it stands, on Aug. 3 the Real Clear Politics average of national polling had 46.6 percent of the public supporting Obama, putting him narrowly ahead of McCain. Exactly two months before, on June 3, that same average had Obama at the exact same level of support — 46.6 percent."</p>

<p>And consdier that in the last two months all the economic news and foreign policy news has favored Obama.</p>

<p>Posssible reponses that do nothing to help Obama win:<br />
1. we hate you you troll<br />
2. Yay Obama <br />
3. All those voters in America are racist!  We love to make fun of fat people with pit bulls, mullet people and Hooterville trailer park people hyuk hyuk! The mass of voters is disgusting.  Oh if we tell the mass of disgusting retard-o voters how disgusting they are, with their fat and their mullets and their racism and such, maybe they'll wise up and realize hos dumb and wrong they are and vote for Obama!</p>

<p>Possible responses that will help Obama win:</p>
