My heart goes out the families of this unjust act. No words can speak how I feel for them. I lost a family memeber to a shooting as well. It is never easy to loose anybody but this way is especailly hard. Remember the love you have for your loved one and keep them alive in you hearts always. Ill keep families and hope for justice in my prayers. God Bless

About a year ago, I filled a response card for Fashion Bug and mentioned to them that putting all those “posters” in the store windows would make the store an easy target for crime. No one can see in, and you can’t see out. Well, Lane Bryant store and Fashion Bug are part of the same business organization. I looked through photos of the front of the Lane Bryant store and what do I see? Big posters everywhere on the windows, even by the main door. If you had to choose between a completely open store front or one plastered with fashion posters over their windows, which one would you choose?

I want to know why this story is not being covered by the major networks. No follow up. No Nancy Grace coverage. She could do so much to bring attention to the crime. Especially what Joyce said about the displays at the front of the store. This same type of crime happened in Wendys in NYC. Store clerk and shoppers murdered in the back. Is their prejudice in covering this story? (large people?)

Crime is getting so bad it isn’t safe to go shopping. Who
would think you could be killed while shopping or going out
to eat at a restraunt. The fact that the shooter was black doesn’t suprise me at all.

Rev. Jesse Jackson just visited the site for prayers and to hang a wreath for the black victims. How could this monster exploit such a tragedy. We should CASTRATE that piece of $h!t..

A wreath should have been hung for ALL the victims, black and white. If this is true, Jesse Jackson needs to check him self. Not cool.

I just don’t understand how someone could walk into a place of business, kill 5 people and leave without being seen by ANYONE. No one heard anything? Bullshit. Somebody knows something, their just not talking.

Unbelievable for sure just as the others have said that JJackson would not acknowledge the other women that were not African American. All the victims had families and lives they should have been allowed to live out. I can certainly say this is just another reminder that JJ is no where close to being Martin Luther King. I think there are plenty of people who know this statement is true.

Another massacre in a “Gun-Free Zone”!
It’s a shame that these women were slaughtered like sheep and deprived of their ability to protect themselves by the Anti-Freedom Nazis that stripped them of their God-Given Right of self protection: just as the other Nazis did in Germany in the 30s and 40s.
In 2000, 20% of U.S. homicides occur in four cities with just six percent of the population – New York, Chicago, Detroit, and Washington, D.C. (FBI Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) for 2000, p. 79, Table 5, “Index of Crime by State”) – which of these cities has strict gun control? WOW! So restricting guns from the LAW-ABIDING stops murder . . . HOW?
If gun control works: Why is DC’s murder rate 56.9 per 100,000, while just THREE MILES AWAY Arlington, VA, with “its lax gun control laws” has a murder rate of 1.6 per 100,000?
Those who support victim-disarmament please list the cities with the strictest gun control laws AND a crime rate LOWER than the National Average.
If Daley truly believes there is no need for you and me to have guns . . . why is he always flanked by gun-totin’ bodyguards?

There are many more violent black on white attacks than there is violent white on black attacks. These stats come
straight from the Dept of Justice reports.

Burnham… I have never heard of such crap… please find another outlet to vent your ignorance… do your homework and look up the KKK and find out who they lynched and tortured… it definetly was not white on white… These women deserve the respect and the support for which this page was created… they don’t need ignorant assholes like you on it…

Chantel i have done my homework. The stats i am talking
about are not from my ignorance nor crap but from the justice dept. My heart goes out to these ladies and their families. The only ignorant person is you.
