One killed, four wounded in shooting early Sunday at club near Dallas’ West End
Two young men were fighting over a lady.
DALLAS Four people were wounded and one was killed in a shooting on Sunday at about 2 a.m. at Club Azero, a new club at 703 McKinney Avenue, on the edge of Dallas' West End district.
Alejandro Vasquez, 25, was shot in the chest and killed; Jose Eduardo Patino, Mario Alberto Cazares, Tony Hernandez, and Oscar Leija, all of Dallas, were wounded. It appears that Hernandez and Leija were fighting over a lady. Fellas, fellas, she's not worth it.
The club, which is in the space that used to be the Barrocco Lounge, has a permit issued to someone named Omar Marin, and was written up for violations of TABC codes in September.

Pavel, it worked for Richard Duke of Gloucester (Richard III) -- ok, not in the long run, but nothing is really permanent, now is it?

I'm surprised a gun was used because most of the time knives are the weapon of choice for Hispanics.

Sling Blade is an example of an old Hillbilly boy who come into town, he is unsure about city people and so he does somthing stupid that is a criminal act that will last a life time.....the West End crime dates back to the 1870's, which is why they have an old Jail house Calaboose #2 Down there....they had real cops living on those street's in the 1900's, and many arrest were made....it is an old Bus Depot as the term should apply...so beware of the Iron Rails..A/T....

I see it in a very positive light, that of a growing maturing immigrant culture. Like the Irish and the Italians before, first they are frightened into the filthiest manual labor, growing to personal violence with knives frightened into the filthiest profiteering off vices, later organized crime with guns and intimidated into protecting a few local warlord relatives and finally assimilation into frightened single issue voters directed by powerful and corrupt ethnically skewed politicians.
It's a beautiful thing, really.

The Demographic's of this Anthropological statement is correct, while the mass of people comming to the bus station, Dallas.. are farm and small urban town people, in the old days... West Dallas was the dumping ground as Deep Elm was, while the Godfather's who ran these area, Bosse's or Gang related Cheif's, had code's and ethic's of who would belong..And who would go, until then A.T.

Jason, that is the most depressing version of the American dream I have heard since the film Gangs of New York.
I will be under my desk sobbing if anyone needs me.
