Read the article in the star this morning, two people shot on board a TTC bus at 5:20PM yesterday, the bus was full and NOBODY WILL COME FORWARD. A friggin 11-year old girl was shot in the head and nobody wants to speak up, what is wrong with this city.

wow... poor girl, i feel sorry for the victims and the victims family.
I wonder if shooting the girl was an accident or just pure stupidity and disregard for life.
Either way, jail for life if u ask me. fukers |

Thats awful...
Its so damn shocking how no one is coming forward.... what kinda selfish every man for himself attitude is this?
:whip: :whip: :whip:
"The TTC credited the work of the 37-year-old bus operator, who has been with the TTC for almost four years, for responding immediately by pressing the red emergency alarm button that dispatches police and emergency services"
/\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\

| i read the same article. very sad indeed for the 11 year old girl. all this happened because the guy who they were targeting got into a dispute with the shooter. i dont know how serious it was but to try & end someones life because of it really shows how weak & cold hearted the fugitive really is... |

We're not talking about just anyone being shot on the bus. We're talking about an innocent 11-year old girl who was shot (in the head) in front of over a dozen people (not counting the shooters) and nobody is coming forward. How do people live with themselves. We don't have THAT big a divide between the ghetto and non-ghetto. Detroit has a Ghetto, an area where you call the police and they won't respond for several hours, no public transportation through the area, it's really the "other side of the tracks". We don't have that here, so it blows my mind that these people can witness such a thing and say nothing at all. It's not like they had to come forward at the scene, they could have easily called in by now if they're afraid for their own safety. |

when people in my area see a crime being committed or even a car accident on the street they hardly think for a moment to stop and help out. i know this is a generalization on my part, but i also base it on a lot of observation just from my own experiences.
i just get a really cold vibe from people up here. my community has changed a lot in the last 20 years. i used to remember a time when the neighbours here actually knew each other. nowadays everyone likes to keep to themselves and not be bothered by external affairs. it's a very selfish attitude, but the reality these days it seems ..
