Poor little girl. That had to be scary. Glad she's okay.

Awww, what a cutey! Updated story with pic of McKayla. I can't even imagine being on the phone with one of my granddaughters and her tell me she's been shot! It's always good when there's a happy ending at least for one of the victims in this story. Prayers for the rest.

She is precious.

It makes me so sad when people resort to such gang related violence. It's so unnecessary.

I am glad that the little girl is going to be alright along with everyone else who survived, prayers for all of them...

I have a high disdain for gangs and won't comment any further ....

To me gang members are cowards. They would rather shoot then physically fight, because that might 'hurt'. The also 'make war' on children, women and others who aren't involved, who wouldn't be prepared to shoot back. They are cowards plain and simple.

So afraid of being 'dissed' or 'disrespected' afraid that someone might laugh at them.

If they were really men, they would be too busy providing for their familes and caring for their own to make war on innocents.

Why is it that when a custodial parent fails to provide for a child it is called neglect and is a criminal matter. But when a non custodial parent fails to provide it is called failure to support and is a civil matter?

Gangsters, bullies, and terrorists are cowards.
