10 Years bassist Lewis Cosby and Sean Danielson of Smily Empty Soul nearly lost their lives in a recent gunfight in Washington, DC this past Sunday, Cosby recounted the events, saying:
"Shawn and I left the bar at 2:15am and were about 5 minutes into our cab ride when we saw 2 men standing with guns drawn. Scared for our lives we ducked down as bullets riddled the back seat of the cab forcing the cab to slam into a parked car. Multiple rounds tore apart the cabs body blowing out tires and shattering the glass. The gun fire and carnage suddenly ended not knowing if we were hit or not, we jumped out of the car and ran across the street to a gas station until the cops got there. When Sean and I went back to the scene with the police, and seeing the all the carnage that was caused we then realized that it wasn't our time.
We never think on our own American soil that we could be victims of such random acts of gunfire, until it happens to you! With all the freedoms and privileges we have as Americans we don't think that we would be faced with this type of violence as kids our own age in third world countries such as Iran, Israel, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc deal with on a daily basis. A bullet shows no discrimination. It only results in one thing, Loss. We need to stop losing and start winning together as one consciousness."
