WOW!!! IT IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT START ALL OF THESE PROBLEM, WITH YOUR RACIAL COMMENTS. WE ARE NOT BACK TO THOSE DAYS BLACK VS WHITE ECT ECT.. THIS HAS TO DO WITH GANG BANGERS THAT ARE KILLING ONE ANOTHER FOR POSSECION OF A TERRITORY, FOR LOOKING THE WRONG WAY OR EVEN WEARING THE WRONG COLOR OF !profanity! OR PANTS. THATS WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT. SO PLEASE KEEP YOUR DUMB, IGNORANT COMMENTS TO YOURSELF AND ONE MORE THING, DONT TELL ME THAT YOUR PERFECT RACE DOESN'T HAVE ANY GANGS. NOT TO MENTION KKK. WHAT ARE THEY? REST MY CASE!!!

Yeah, all gang bangers...let that be Asians, Black, Caucasians, Dominicans, Ethiopians, French, German, Haitians, Italians, Jamaican, Koreans, Mexicans, Native Americans, Puertoricans, Samoans, Vietnamese...etc

You forgot Martians and little old ladies, C2B2. And along with salva veritate, we are in total agreement. Gang member + gun + crime = death penalty. I don't care if you are purple with green polka dots. No exceptions.

Oh yea! Everytime I'm in down town Lancaster I'm worried some Asian or German gang banger is going to stick me up.

God Bless the little girl! But here is the problem. The blacks and Puertoricans know who these gang bangers are right now. But they protect them from the police. If the people of those communities worked aggresively with the police, Lancaster would get safer in a month.
They know who is dealing drugs and where they live...
And thanks to our liberal courts we have hog tied the police.
The great liberal society, Obama style...
Right of Smart
This tragic incident was not a race crime. It was one gang going after another gang.

If the shooter was white, would it have been a race crime? If the victim was white, would it have been a race crime? Clearly not. The shooter was protecting "territory" he neither owned, earned or had any legal right to possess. Yet, in the mind of his peers, he thought he had every right to take something he has no right to possess. It's called stealing, and he is stealing from you and me. Therefore, we prosecute anyone who claims they "own" a street corner for grand theft of real property? Make it a felony conviction. Clean the streets.

He and his "gang" of morons need to be rounded up and shipped off...the nearest cliff.

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. IF THE SHOOTER OR THE VICTIMS WERE WHITE IT WOULD OF NOT BECOME A RACE CRIME BUT BECUSE THE SHOOTER WAS BLACK TRYING TO POSSESS SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT HIS, AN INNOCENT LITTLE ANGEL GOT KILLED. LET TRY TO FOCUS OF THE LITTLE GIRL FAMILY AND WHAT THEY ARE GOING THROUGH AND STOP MAKING THIS ABOUT RACE, ITS NOT ABOUT RACE ITS ABOUT THE LIFE OF A LITTLE GIRL AND BECAUSE OF THE ACTION OF THIS SHOOTER HER LIFE WAS TAKEN AWAY.
