According to these news reports the shooter was well known to local police as a pimp, which means he beat women and took money from their work as prostitutes. The original target of his shooting was another pimp also known to local police for beating women and taking their money earned working as prostitutes. The two innocent victims who we killed had nothing to do with their crimes. No one was watching these two known  violent criminals. No police, no FBI informants, no feminists, no crime families, no Communists, no Harvard University campus cops and no lesbians. But in the elitist academic enclave of Cambridge MA, host city to Harvard University and MIT, one 70-year-old white male who survived 40 years of police abuses is still under 24/7/365 surveillance, harassment, character assassination, threats, provocations, ridicule, and humiliation. Wonder why there are such misguided priorities for the public safety resources? Why there is so much waste of taxpayer funds?  


[From article]
Witness statements indicated Cherry and Harris were both at Aria's Haze nightclub earlier that morning attending a performance by rapper French Montana. They argued at some point. It is believed a prostitute was at the center of their exchange.
[. . .]
Harris openly boasted about his life as a pimp on social media websites, where he instructed his prostitutes and recruited new girls.
[. . .]
Harris flashed stacks of $100 bills and high-powered guns.
He flaunted expensive cars - a Bentley, an Aston Martin and a BMW - and reveled in luxury homes in two of the country's most glamorous cities.
[. . .]
His Twitter account, [show a] controlling man who demeaned women and was undaunted by police, the courts or the dangers of his lifestyle.
