FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO):  Two men are now facing charges following a fight involving a handgun at the Three Rivers Festival last weekend.  Probable cause documents say an officer was working the Three Rivers Festival on Saturday, July 9, when he was alerted that there was a fight involving firearms in Junk Food Alley. According to our partners in news at ABC21, 21-year-old Abraham Simmons was detained by police when a witness said that two women were also involved and one of them was armed.

Police say the woman handed him the gun, saying “some guy” gave it to her. She later admitted that Simmons, her boyfriend, was involved in the fight when a gun was dropped, so she picked it up. Simmons told police that 21-year-old Krystopher Acoff turned to him and said “what’s good” before the two began to fight and the gun fell. Acoff and Simmons are preliminarily charged with unlawful carrying of a handgun by a felon.

“What’s good”?
!!!
That’s not!

1) How’d Mr. Simmons obtain this gun?
Was he aware that he was a felon? …because i’m sure if he knew, he’d not have unlawfully carried.

2) What’s good?? What’s the meaning?

…never mind, bruh, i had to get me, net-educated!
Wow..i really didn’t mean to go down that rabbit hole!

Quite simply, it can be a challenge.
If you’re up to said challenge, might wanna, “…get your Mike on”!
If you are not feelin’ it today, you may want to diffuse it with, “I’m Good! You?”.

Time is of the essence, so you may want to pick your responses with some haste.

…i feel so cultured today!!

But now, i must retreat to back my cupboard…

Lots of these felons who are carrying guns, are being purchased by there girlfriends & then they give the baby in the woods routine. Like they didn’t know it was illegal to buy guns for felons. So how would any background check stop that gun being purchased.???
