GOOD MORNING AMERICA
An 8-year-old African-American boy in Texas is struggling to recover after being shot in the face by a 46-year-old white man, but authorities have not been able to determine a motive.
Dallas police said that Donald Maiden Jr., who had just celebrated his 8th birthday on Sunday, was playing tag outside his apartment complex on Tuesday. According to his grandmother, Maiden ran inside to get some toys and was shot as came back outside.
Witnesses told police that 46-year-old Brian Cloninger had been seen waiving a handgun at people prior to the shooting, The Dallas Morning News reported.
since when have our children all of our children especially the sub teens become a threat or prime targets for anyone with a gun? is it ever going to get to where the powers that be realize that we are facing what we are about to go to war with Syria for just a different mode of delivery bullets? did anyone call the police while he was brandishing the weapon, or it's ok it's Texas?
actually i think they do know but just feel arming the crazies while making big bucks on gun sales trumps our children's lives, that could be remedied by the NRA and their captive politicians on the right wing who want to get elected again so they can do nothing but make sure the instance of death stays strong and legal.
