(2003-07-23) — Staccato bursts of semi-automatic weapons fire which echoed around the streets of Los Angeles last night had nothing to do with the announcement that Gov. Gray Davis will face a recall election in the fall.
According to an unnamed police source the gunfire was “not celebratory. It was just another night in L.A.”
And while there were some mild expressions of joy, many California residents remain stoic, awaiting the outcome of the election.
“I won’t believe it until I see pictures,” said one unnamed Sacramento housewife. “Get me some video of Davis with his bags packed, being escorted from his office by National Guard troops. I want to believe this so much, but we have been disappointed before.”
