The incident happened around 3 a.m. at Cole's Place in the Parkland neighborhood.  Louisville Metro Police Department spokesperson Dwight Mitchell said six people were shot, including an expecting mother...

"We all were having a good time and all the sudden gunshots just started ringing out," said Sheronda Morris, who was attending a birthday party in the back of the club...

The scene was hauntingly familiar for Morris who was shot at The View, a former nightclub on Story Avenue, in January 2013. She was paralyzed for months but miraculously recovered.

The owner had installed an eight foot fence around the property, had walk through metal detectors and wands at the door, searched bags, and pays eight security guards and five off-duty police officers to monitor the property.  On top of that, KRS 244.125 makes it illegal to have a firearm in a bar.

What exactly are these types of no gun policies and laws are doing?  Obviously, as anyone with a functioning brain has said every time this topic comes up, they only keep honest people honest.  Criminals don't follow laws.  It's like one of those car insurance commercials:  "If you're a criminal, you break the law... It's what you do."

Even the club owner said "You can hire all the security, you can do all you want -- but if a person wants to do something they're gonna do it,"

They tried legislation to allow CCDW in bars last year or the year before, but nothing ever came out of it.

Witnesses say a black male dressed in all white jumped the fence before shooting. Presumably it came over the fence with him. He's still on the loose. A club full of people and ain't nobody saw nothin'.
