colloquy: Prosecutor: Did Baby Harris ever tell you what he wanted these machine guns for? Taylor: He said something earlier about that he wanted to do a ride-by, he wanted to show some guys that he wasn’t a punk, that they think he was a punk. (Trial Tr. at 785.) It seems clear to us that the evidence of Harris’s plans to conduct a ride-by shooting not only completes the picture, as the state court concluded, it also provides a motive for shooting Willoughby. We have discussed similar matters in the context of the Federal Rules of Evidence. See, e.g., United States v. Phelps, 168 F.3d 1048, 1057-58 (8th Cir.1999) (finding no abuse of discretion in admitting evidence relating to a defendant’s actions before and after a shooting); United States v. Luna, 94 F.3d 1156, 1162 (8th Cir.1996) (<HOLDING>); United States v. White, 645 F.2d 599, 602
