It's a freaky world out there.
Wow! I hope they'll find him soon! I hate to think such an idiot is still free.

Why must a report of a tragic event degenerate into yet another gun debate? For those not familiar with Philly, that section of town has a few "Gangland" areas. Chances are very likely that the weapon was NOT legally owned.

These were just criminally stupid and violent people. Laws, guns or lack of either would not have affected them. I hope they throw those parents away for a long time. I hope the little girl recovers, though not likely 100%

Thanks Johnny for the perspective. Hope they find that b'srd too.

I saw this last night. It certainly is the sort of thing that makes one question liberal gun laws - but support the death penalty.

Shot a kid... Couldn't the bastard at least fight the kid one-on-one? Coward.

This is more like a left leg for an eye.
