I would say the relevance is that it was happening even that long ago and that it has no boundaries?
The first one, the two boys along a highway in SoCa, that is a freeway we frequent and that my family does as well. I didn't read the article but I know that around that time, there were a lot of random shootings, from cars, to cars, whatever. It really does worry me because I see it might be directed towards young men, and, I do have a son who is really enjoying his age and is out late.
I would imagine it is gang initiation or else territorial issues? I had wanted to visit a local cemetary which is quite lovely with its' name plates/statues, I even invited a friend to come down for some photos. Well, shortly thereafter, there was a shoot out, originating from there and continuing all of the way to a local mall {shooting all the way, admist traffic} where they had to shut down the mall to find the shooters.
I was happy to have been able to forget about all of this on vacation. Not that it wasn't happening, I just didn't think about it.
