, can't believe some psycho would just go around shooting people for no reason. It's like, what's the point? 
You'd think we'd learn from each other already but I guess some people just don't care about hurting others. The police are doing their thing but it feels like they're going to be stuck on this case forever, no leads or anything 
. It's a shame that the West Pullman community has to go through this again. Someone needs to take responsibility for those bullets 
.
... it makes me wonder, what's the value we place on human life in our society? We're always talking about how important it is to live and let live, but when someone gets shot multiple times while sitting in their car, it feels like no one takes a second look at why that happened 
. Is it just another case of senseless gun violence or was there something more to it? I guess what I'm trying to say is we need to have tough conversations about our attitudes towards violence and how we can work together to prevent such tragedies from happening in the future 
.
. It's not just about locking up perpetrators or passing laws, it's about having a deeper understanding of the root causes and taking collective responsibility for our communities 
.
. We need to ask ourselves what we can do today to make a difference in preventing such tragedies from happening again 
.
. I mean, what's up with no one being caught? Like, the police know who did it, but they're not saying. It's like they don't want us to know 
. And what about all those witnesses who claimed to have heard gunfire? Are they just making that up? It's suspicious, man... and the location of this shooting is no coincidence 
. I'm calling foul on this one, something fishy is going on here 
.
. I hope the police can find out what happened and catch whoever did this, but until then, it's just a huge pain in the gut 
. It feels like there should be more support for people dealing with gun violence and mental health issues, but I guess that's a whole different conversation 
it makes me think about school safety, what if this was at our school? 
we have metal detectors and security cameras but I know that doesn't make us invincible 
maybe we can learn from each other's experiences, like my friend whose sibling got shot in a drive by 
it's crazy how quickly our lives can change 
I'm so sad for the victim's family and loved ones, they must be going through hell right now 
. We need to find a way to address gun violence in our communities, it's just not acceptable anymore 
another innocent person lost to gun violence... it's just not fair 
i hope whoever did this comes forward and we get some justice
