Pushing free beer in Montgomery was not a good idea the night before the downtown mass shooting

(YHN)

Now that 2 people have been arrested for the mass shooting in Montgomery in early October, it is becoming clear that some questionable decision-making is coming from city hall.

The City of Montgomery promoted free alcohol to events surrounding college football games, which isn’t even necessary and surely is not going to provide cultural enrichment.

Mayor Steven Reed has a crime problem, and pouring free alcohol into the area where crime is doesn’t seem to make much sense.

He needs to get his city under control or ask Governor Kay Ivey to send in the National Guard.
