Thats a sad story. Its too bad that all of these gang problems and stuff like this goes on so much. Its even worse when kids around to see it happen.
ReplyDeleteThis is a tragic story, it makes me so scared to be anywhere. I can't believe things like this happen so often, and I can't even begin to imagine witnessing such a horrible thing.
ReplyDeleteI heard about this story and it's horrible to think about. You did a good just getting all the major information, its just a little long.
ReplyDeleteSounds like some pretty established gangs. I wonder why, exactly, they're rivals? what happened to make them shoot at one another on sight?
ReplyDeleteAnd why was the kid going from McDonald's to Burger King? They're almost identical, and if he'd already eaten, why go to another fast food joint? Something to ponder...
It is so sad when stuff like this happens. I can't even imagine what it must be like to have to witness something like that either. The whole thing is very tragic.
