        I have NOT seen enough coverage of this young girl's murder. Why are more outlets not letting the public know this lunatic is still on the loose? The only person I've seen appropriate coverage is .@shaunking. Thank you Shaun, for doing what the MSM fails to do consistently.

        Sadly you're correct. But I also think if it happened to a white family, we'd see it on every news outlet across the country for days.

        Adding to your previous comment if they thought it was an immigrant the “mistake in office” would have been on every news outlet calling for justice!

        There is nothing this grieving mother could have done that would warrant someone to shoot at her car.

        So true. I would add that the fact that she's a black woman conscious of not doing the slightest thing to provoke unwarranted ire is sad but proven a correct notion precisely by the tragic loss of her baby. So heartbreaking.

        Yes. Because there are people that will say, "Well, there's 2 sides. What did she do?" People will always hold Black folks accountable for their deaths.

        I hate that and they’re not accountable. And I’m sorry for all the hateful ignorant idiots that claim they are. My sons best friend is black, he’s the kindest most thoughtful kid I know, it guts me to know what he could be facing someday, and it infuriates me.

        Every friend that I have who is black, no matter what part of the country they grew up, has faced discrimination. Some have lost parents to the war on drugs, some to prison. It’s so frustrating to feel helpless, I could never wrap my head around racism.

        As if any of things she thought she might have done would warrant being shot at (and killing a little girl).

        But that's the question many will have asked as if she'd brought this on herself.

        Definitely. It’s a big topic of convo on a forum I follow/read. It’s sick. Also a lot of “withholding judgment” and skepticism that the race of the shooter is known. So typical, so America. 🤬
