It's hard to sleep in Paterson with gunfire erupting every few hours at night.

Must have been weird when these clowns met up the emergency room.

  No doubt it must of been awkward especially if they were shooting at each other. I'd be interested in knowing if the bullets they removed from the 2 "victims" come from the same gun or if they come from 2 different guns because if they come from 2 different guns then they have some explaining to do.
