Boomtown2002
David McNorris:
A little boy sees his dad gunned down in the street, gun pointed right at his daddy's face. Point blank. But that's not the worst part of it. His father was killed for someone else's crime. The horror, the random unfairness of it. The boy doesn't remember any of his childhood after that day then the father's murder hardens the boy. It then becomes his mission to take to the same streets, join a gang, carry a gun, try to right some of those wrongs from oh so long ago.
Chronic aka Daryl C. Norcott:
So you studied my life story.
David McNorris:
No, that's not your life story, Daryl. It's Samuel Norval's. See the difference between the two of you is he put on a L.A.P.D. uniform, carried a service revolver. Huge difference between his gang and yours. See he worked to keep your gang alive. Them, their families, their neighbors. I could never be Samuel Norval. Do you know why? Because he'd be willing to give up his life to save yours. That's his job. That was his mission. He's not the enemy. He deserves to live. Come on, Chronic. Let him live.
