Sights from 3d Lacrosse’s Denver Shootout

ILGear.com had a presence at seventh annual Denver Shootout, the high-profile recruiting tournament founded by Jamie Munro and now one of the premiere events in his company 3d Lacrosse’s impressive portfolio of offerings.

It was an awesome event, with wildly skilled players from around the country, including boys and girls teams. And in the boys Elite and Rising Stars division, there was a long list of players who appear to be on the path to Division I lacrosse. On top of the outstanding competition and, as part of every 3d Lacrosse event or camp, Munro and his staff of experienced, well-known former/current players and coaches provided a great deal of valuable instruction for the participants as part of the first activity session on Friday afternoon.

We saw quite a few sweet team kits, a couple of which you’ll see in the coming days, but the sights in the Mile High City were pretty cool in general. So we collected some of them to share with you.

Check out the scenery from 3d Lacrosse’s Denver Shootout. Additionally, check out the Recruiting Roundup pieces over on IL from the first couple days of the event and also from championship. For more information on 3d Lacrosse, its event, its camps and for more details on the Denver Shooout, visit 3dLacrosse.com.

Jamie Munro, the founder and CEO of 3d Lacrosse, is always getting his hands dirty, taking a lead role in working closely with the younger groups of players at his events and programs.

Dick’s Sporting Good Park, with ample field space, was a great venue for an event bringing about 120 teams to Denver.

The vendor area had a festive feeling to it and was crawling with lacrosse fans all weekend.

The Denver Shootout’s lead sponser, Easton Lacrosse had a big tent in the vendor area. Easton provided the jerseys for each of the 3d Lacrosse Select teams, as well as the jerseys for Saturday night’s All-Star games. 

Former Denver University star and current pro baller Mark Matthews came out to the Denver Shootout to hang with fans.

Just to give you an idea of how spooky the sky looked at times. The weather, however, would not be an issue, as storms stayed away, except for a brief spell early in the day Friday.

I saw this youngster heckling some teammates, noticed he was rocking a Rhino Lacrosse helmet and asked to take a pic of him. A pack of his teammates wanted in on it.

Here’s that same little guy in the Rhino helmet, doing his best “Tiger Uppercut” (#SF2).

Mike “Papi” Wein gave a moving speech as he was overcome with emotion, welcoming a new group of players to the Brady’s Bunch program, founded in honor of his son, Brady, who was diagnosed with leukemia at three months old. Look for more on Brady’s Bunch on ILGear.com soon.

Easton draw-string bags were filled with goodies and given to all the attending coaches — along with folding-style camp chairs, which the coaches were allowed to borrow for the event. Good call, and absolutely clutch.

These Denver Shootout performance shirts were one of the items included in the Easton gift bags.

90,000 Denver Shooting – Tension Rises

09:11 am: Denver Shooting – Tensions Rise

Fool came to gunfight with spray

In Denver, during a patriotic march, a participant was shot dead.
And the more details become known about this case, the more archetypal and indicative it is.
The march was organized by the Patriot Muster movement.
The shooter turned out to be a private security guard working for the well-known “detective” agency “Pinkerton”.He was hired by the 9News television company to guard its film crew covering the patriotic march and clashes between pro-Trump “patriots” and supporters of BLM and Soros’s Antifa.
It is not yet known what caused the aggression, but a march participant (as seen in the photo) sprayed tear gas towards the TV crew and was immediately shot. What is called “at point blank”, that is, point blank.

The result is a little predictable

Then the shooter surrendered to the police officers who arrived in time.

He had a small pistol, and they have big guns

the so-called “Pinkertons” were not “detectives” at all, but in fact hired killers of banks and corporations.
They also tried to sue Rockstar, allegedly “in the game, their ancestors were shown too unrealistic and this spoils their business reputation.”But unsuccessfully.
And now we see that for more than a hundred years the Pinkertons have remained hired killers.

There have been several attacks on television personnel in the United States recently. Most of the attackers were supporters of the Democratic Party. Recently I posted a video where an African American points a gun at a journalist and pulls the trigger – but no shot occurs (either the gun was not loaded, or a misfire, science is unknown). And for some reason I think that this case will not add love to journalists on the part of the population.

Another conclusion that many will make is “do not go with a spray can to a firefight”.
The smart ones should have made this conclusion in the last case, when a guy with a rifle shot an idiot with a skateboard attacking him. Now it should reach the rest.

Separately, I wonder if the Russian liberal public will shout “Look, people are dying because of Trump’s criminal regime”? Theoretically, they could, because most of them drown for the Democrats and Biden.But, most likely, as usual, they will either be silent or declare “we are not interested in what is abroad, it is important for us what is in Russia.”

In general, we see that the escalation is growing. Supporters of both parties rush at each other and at journalists, more and more corpses and it is not known whether it will explode with something large-scale and bloody even before the elections, unable to withstand expectations.

90,000 Shooting in the USA: 10 people killed in a supermarket | News from Germany on world events | DW

In Colorado, an unknown person opened fire in a supermarket, killing ten people, including one policeman. The shooting took place in a shopping center in Boulder, a city northeast of Denver, at about 3 pm local time on Monday 22 March (midnight March 23 Moscow time).

According to the head of the local police Maris Herold, the suspect has been taken into custody. The authorities have not yet named the motives for the crime, citing an early stage of the investigation. Herold clarified that her murdered colleague was one of the first to be at the scene of the crime and was shot.

According to her, the law enforcement agencies began to receive reports of shooting and a man with a rifle.The police reacted with a reinforced composition: a fully armed special forces arrived at the scene, the suspect was called through a loudspeaker to surrender.

Eyewitnesses reported multiple shots and people lying motionless on the supermarket floor and in the parking lot. Video footage from the scene shows how the police take out a man with a bloody leg and a naked torso. It is not yet clear if he is a suspect.

“It seems that here is the safest place in America, and I was just nearly killed just because I went for lemonade and a bag of chips,” Ryan Borowski, an eyewitness to the incident, told CNN.”This is a tragedy and a nightmare,” said District Attorney Michael Doherty. State Governor Jared Polis called the incident “a terrible event.”

US President Joe Biden was informed about the shooting in Colorado. White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki noted that the president will continue to be kept informed of the situation.

Second mass murder in the United States in a week

This is the second mass murder in the United States in a week. Last Tuesday, eight people were shot dead in three massage parlors in and around Atlanta, Georgia, in a short space of time.Six of them had Asian roots. Seven of the victims are women. The suspect – a white man – pointed to an obsession with sex and a desire to get rid of the “temptation” as the motive.

Fatal incidents involving the use of weapons occur in the United States on an almost daily basis. The CDC Health Department, in its latest statistics, recorded 39,740 deaths from firearms in the United States in 2018. That’s about 109 deaths a day.

An 18-year-old teenager died. The weapon from which they fired was found at the scene of the attack.

“We have no information on who was shot,” Spurlock said, adding that it is too early to draw any conclusions.

One of the parents, whom the local press calls by name and surname – Fernando Montoya – reported that his 17-year-old son received three gunshot wounds.

“He said that the guy took the pistol out of the guitar case and started shooting,” he said in an interview with Denver TV 7.

Thanks to the Democrats

According to the Americanist and professor at the Higher School of Economics Alexander Domrin, the high level of gun violence in the United States is explained by the fact that the Democrats used all means to remove Trump, in particular the support of the “bandits” from Black Lives Matter and the Antifa factions – and now they are reaping the fruits of their decisions.

“On the eve of the US elections, the Democrats openly destabilized the situation in the country when they released this genie. How are they going to bottle him? No way!

In America, an explosion of crime, which was initiated by the Democrats with the sole purpose of overthrowing Trump.

Previously, in big cities like Detroit, if this was not a triple murder in a night, they would not write about it, now the situation is even worse. This applies not only to weekends, but also to weekdays.There was a shootout in Portland about ten days ago, and there were eight wounded. Can you imagine the intensity of the firefight to have eight wounded lying on the street? The Americans should say thank you to Biden and the Democrats for “doing a good job” and achieving their goal of toppling Trump, “the expert shared.

According to Domrin, American police officers have experienced “restrictions” from liberals since 2009.At some point, they were forbidden to use batons to disperse the crowd, and the police began to “arm” with long-handled flashlights to confront criminals. In general, American law enforcement agencies are now too demoralized to fight back the gangs.

“We see the police today being forced to kneel down as a sign of their condemnation of the violence, including against this unfortunate addict George Floyd . The police are humiliated and insulted, and why should they fight crime if they put it below the plinth.I have no hope that law enforcement officers will get involved in these showdowns, especially in large cities.

Why do they need it? Let these groups shoot each other. I understand perfectly why the police will not interfere. As long as the Democrats and those who brought Biden to power rule, they will not do anything for ordinary workers, ”the Americanist concluded.

90,000 News Agency security guard killed protester in Denver

Denver police said Matthew Dolloff was detained in connection with the murder of a man in Denver on Saturday.

Doloff, 30, a private security guard hired by news agency 9News, shot and killed a protester at the far-right Patriotic Rally in downtown Denver on Saturday 10 October. He is currently in custody.

The incident took place during two protests: a “Patriotic Rally” in support of the police and a counter-protest “BLM-Antifa Soup Drive”.

According to Denver Police Investigation Officer Joe Montoya, as the events drew to a close, there was a “ verbal skirmish ” between the shooting suspect and the alleged victim outside the Denver Art Museum.

The quarrel ended in a firefight, during which one person died. Two pistols were found at the scene, but police have not yet confirmed whose weapon they were.

The identity of the victim has not yet been revealed by the police. However, a woman who claims to be his mother identified the deceased as Lee Keltner on a Facebook group.

Photographs taken by a witness to the shooting on Saturday show that the men got into a fight.

The deceased began spraying the aerosol at Dolloff when he pulled out and pointed a pistol at him.After that, the guard fired. A few seconds later, he was arrested by the police.

Update: Further investigation has determined the suspect is a private security guard with no affiliation with Antifa. Additional information will be released as it becomes available.

– Denver Police Dept. (@DenverPolice) October 11, 2020

Ultra-right bloggers claimed that a protester was killed by one of the Antifa supporters. In response, Denver police tweeted that “ investigation revealed the gunman to be a private security guard not affiliated with Antifa .”

Local broadcaster KUSA confirmed that Dolloff was hired by the news agency through security company Pinkerton to protect his employees during the protest. From the photographs of the incident, he did not look the way a security guard usually looks.

Dolloff has frequently declared his commitment to progressive politics on the Internet. But the authorities stressed that the guard was not associated with Antifa.

According to Facebook, Dolloff and his wife run Lavender Moon Farm, a free-range turkey farm in Elizabeth, Colorado.

“We raise not only turkeys, but Shetland sheep, goats, chickens, bees and Pyrenees mountain dogs,” reads the archived version of the farm’s remote website.

According to his personal Facebook page, Dolloff studies at the University of Denver, calls himself an atheist and a democrat.

An IRA militant group wants to buy a batch of automatic rifles from local gangsters.Brothers Stevo and Bernie are driving in a car with Justine. They are to meet Chris and Frank who have arrived from Ireland. Stevo spent a stormy night, his head is splitting, a hefty bruise under his eye. He got into a fight yesterday in a bar. Having united, the two groups arrive at the place of the transaction. Ord meets them. He checks the buyers for listening devices, and then takes them to the place of purchase and sale, where he introduces them to the seller – Vernon. He presents a sample of the goods to the buyers.Chris says he ordered M-16 rifles and Vernon brought in an AR-17. Vernon’s colleague Martin (Negro) claims that in such a time frame and for such money, it is better to find rifles. Justine agrees with him. Chris asks for a clip and ammo. Then he tests the rifle. The result satisfies him, he agrees. At Vernon’s command, a van drives into the room. From there, Chris’s men are unloading boxes of rifles. The Irish hand over a case with money to the sellers. Martin checks the amount with his typewriter. Everything is accurate. The Irish demand to open all the boxes to make sure that the purchase is complete.

Meanwhile, Stevo recognizes in the van driver Harry the guy who beat him up in the bar the day before. He, too, recognizes Stevo and attacks him with fists. The guys are separated. Harry summarizes his grievances against Stevo. Yesterday at the bar he pestered Harry’s cousin, and when she refused oral sex, he smashed a bottle on her head. The girl is only 17 years old, now her appearance is hopelessly ruined. Chris and Frank beat Stevo revealingly. They inform Harry that the rowdy will pay for the girl’s treatment and apologize.They force Stevo to apologize to Harry, he seems to begin to utter the appropriate phrases, but suddenly pours out a stream of dirty abuse on Harry’s cousin. He takes out a revolver and shoots Stevo, wounds him. A firefight begins. Representatives of both factions are hiding in shelters. Martin is injured, drops the case in the middle of the room and crawls to the side. He was wounded in the head. It looks like he died. Most of the participants in the shootout receive injuries of varying severity. Bernie is killed. Stevo sobs over his brother’s body.Harry taunts him.

Suddenly, two rifle-armed snipers enter the battle. Neither the sellers nor the buyers of weapons recognize them as their own. Ord makes his way to the weapons boxes, pulls out an automatic rifle, gets ammunition and returns fire at the snipers. One of them was killed, the other was wounded. Chris offers opponents a way to peacefully leave the battlefield. They got weapons, Vernon’s team got money. It is necessary to release Justine, she will come out, lead to the scene of the supporters of both groups, and they will be able to separate the rivals.Ord agrees to the plan. Justine demands guarantees, she is afraid that Vernon will shoot her in the back. At Audre’s request, Vernon promises not to shoot Justine. She heads for the exit. Suddenly, somewhere in the next room, a phone rings. Vernon realizes that now he himself can call his people and shoots Justine. The girl crawls towards the room with the phone. Frank goes there, Justine is chased by one of Vernon’s henchmen – Gordon.

Vernon orders Harry to get to Martin’s body and retrieve the keys to the van.Martin wakes up, takes a rifle and starts firing in all directions, calls Justine, snipers and demands to give him the money. Frightened, Harry points Martin to the briefcase. He takes it and suddenly falls backwards. Harry takes the money case.

Frank gets to the phone first. He hears Vernon’s footsteps, pours gasoline from a canister onto the floor, which flows under the door right at Vernon’s feet, sets him on fire. Vernon catches fire, but he manages to extinguish the flames with a fire extinguisher. He shoots Frank, who does not have time to make a life-saving call.Gordon catches up with Justine, trying to kill her, but he runs out of ammo, so the girl manages to fire the first fatal shot. Gordon is killed.

Chris is also trying to reach the phone. Ord pursues him, catches up and begins to brutally beat him. At this moment, the damaged gate opens, from where oxygen cylinders are rolled out into the room. Stevo fires at one of the cylinders, a powerful explosion is heard, the cylinders fly to the sides, the Horde blasts away from Chris. Chris continues to move to the phone.

Vernon calls on his henchmen to get to the case with the money, but they do not agree to take mortal risks for this. The firefight continues. The surviving sniper asks for help. Audre recognizes him by his voice. This is Howard. Ord demands to tell him who hired the snipers. Howard begins to speak, but is killed by Stevo. Chris gets to the phone, kills Vernon. Tries to contact her own. One of them is already in place. This is the big Leary. He finds Harry and begins to beat him brutally.However, he kills the enemy with a crowbar. Harry with his briefcase gets into the van and tries to leave. Stevo manages to catch up with the car and also climb into the cab. A fight ensues. Stevo falls out of the car with his briefcase. The moment Harry runs over his head in the van, Stevo shoots the enemy from below. Both are killed.

Survivors Ord and Chris negotiate a truce. They take the briefcase and head to the van. According to the Horde’s calculations, they have fifteen minutes before the police arrive.However, Justine, who has come to herself, neutralizes the men with two shots from a rifle. She tells Chris, who is dying, that he was superfluous. She reminds him that he asked her out on a date at a restaurant. But this event, apparently, will have to be postponed. Chris agrees with Justine. The girl takes the case and, leaning on the rifle, heads for the exit. Police sirens howl. Justine’s face twists into a grimace.

Shooting was fired by Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebold, 17. On April 20, 1999, they entered Columbine High School in Jefferson County with semi-automatic rifles, pistols and several explosives.In less than 20 minutes, they killed 12 classmates and a teacher and injured 21 people. The violence ended when Harris and Klebold committed suicide. Officials later found two propane bomb bombs in the cafeteria; if they exploded, the death toll would have been much higher.

News of the Columbine tragedy shook the country. The police’s slow response was heavily criticized. Although the shooting ended by noon, the police and sheriff’s deputies, believing that the danger persisted, did not enter the shooting site until several more hours had elapsed, during which some of the victims bled to death.More broadly, the Columbine massacre sparked a nationwide debate about how to end gun violence in schools, and a growing number of schools across the country have invested in private security forces and metal detectors.

Although this report records the events of April 20, it cannot answer the most fundamental question – WHY? That is, why did two young people in the spring of their lives decide to kill teachers and classmates? The evidence does not provide a definitive explanation, and this issue continues to haunt us all.
