Why are young people this stupid?

(Reuters) - Three Alabama university students were among seven people shot, several critically injured, early on Saturday morning at a raucous spring break party in Panama City Beach, Florida, and the suspected shooter was taken into custody, local police said.

Shortly before 1 a.m., officers were called to a building near the beach, where they found the victims, three of whom are students at Alabama A&M University, the Bay County Sheriff's office said in an electronic statement.

The suspected shooter, 22-year old David Jamichael Daniels of Mobile, Alabama, was found nearby and taken into custody. He was charged with seven counts of attempted murder, police said.

The Florida Panhandle city has been struggling with out-of-control, around-the-clock parties attended by the hundreds of thousands of college students who pack into the area in March and April during spring break.

Police described a "chaotic scene" with victims found in and around the home. A .40-caliber handgun was found in the backyard of the residence. Police said the shooting was the sixth firearm related call of the evening.

Alabama A&M University Lieutenant William Schumake, citing a Bay County investigator, said the students were "innocent victims in the wrong place when an altercation broke out resulting in shots being fired."

The school named the victims being treated at an area hospital as students Kearria Freed, 20, who was in critical condition; Kelli Regina Curry, 20, in stable condition; and Annesia Powell, 19, who was undergoing surgery.

The suspected shooter is not an AAMU student, the school said.

Also injured and being treated were Devanta Moore, 21, Jacole Young, 22, Tykeria Ethridge, 22, and Henton Franklin, 22, police said. Moore and Franklin were listed in critical condition.

"I was shot several times including in the neck - I just knew I was dead," Ethridge appeared to write on a Facebook page that also had a photo of her in a hospital room. "I'm cryin right now, the fact I'm stuck w(ith) these bullets, man life too short."

    Sad to say, but it is probably a stretch to place them in the 'people' category.

    Their culture is devolving, and they show no ability to restrain themselves. It is though their emotions are hard wired directly to their muscles.

    They feel...and then do. No thinking in between.

    Probably going to get worse before it gets better.

    Ainsley from FOX is doing a story on how Spring Break is not like Spring Breaks of the past. these days it is hard core drugs, armed drug dealers moving in to get that collegiate cash and overwhelming alcohol abuse. Based on her interview with Hannity last Thursday I am not surprised at all to hear about this shooting at a Spring Break destination, she practically predicted it.

    More like they were raised by $7.00/hr daycare workers with God knows what values instead of by their "parents" who were to busy both having to work to chase that dollar.

    I did the Daytona, Florida spring break thing once in college. Once was enough. There were cops EVERYWHERE and they were arresting people constantly. If you went out to the strip and looked left and right you could literally ALWAYS see a cop arresting somebody or getting out of his car to arrest somebody or putting somebody in the car. Prices on everything were absurd and the clip joints were just shameless.

    I left feeling it all a huge fraud.

    It was fun, but it sure wasn't that fun.

    If it was, the AG, Sharpton, socialist democrats, and sycophants in MSM would be in total meltdown.

    BTW, thank goodness the perp wasn't a cop.

    Young men out on their own for the first time + drugs + alcohol + young women to compete for = stupid behavior.

    Precisely.
    Parents have a responsibility that is as large, and larger, than that of a military commander in a war zone.
    Where a derelict commander would be stripped of rank and drummed out, a derelict parent is given what, five minutes of fame in local media.

    or to busy selling drugs and/or themselves to watch their own and if they did I would doubt they had the correct morals to do so anyway....[xx(]
