8-year-old girl fatally shot near Rayshard Brooks' memorial site
Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms told protesters Sunday to “clear out” of an area where Rayshard Brooks was killed by police last month after an 8-year-old girl was fatally shot over the weekend near the site.
You shot and killed a baby,” she said in a news conference. “Enough is enough.”
Bottoms said the girl, Secoriea Turner, was shot while riding in a car with her mother and a friend after they tried pulling into a parking lot. The site had been barricaded after Brooks was killed June 12 killing at a Wendy’s parking lot south of downtown Atlanta, prompting weeks of protests against racial injustice and police brutality.
Atlanta interim police Chief Rodney Bryant said the driver was confronted by a group of armed people who had blocked the entrance, which was less than a half-mile from the Wendy’s.
“At some point someone in the group opened fire, striking the car multiple times,” he said.

Children were murdered. I prayer that someone identifies who murdered these children. At least Arron Glee was arrested and admitted to the murder in CHOP. Still it is not being covered and as you mentioned no signs being waved or bull horns being raised. 
It almost seems like selective outrage and that these victims don't fit the some sort of profile. 
and it seems to be happening in several cities right now.
People are stressed, many are unemployed and it is hot.
Shootings always go up during the hot months for a variety of reasons, add to that the stress of, well, freaking everything going on now, it isn't a surprise.
Tragic, incredibly sad, a huge reminder that our society has far too many guns on the streets, but not particularly surprising.

No other words for this. Just heartbreaking. 
"Members of the community" murder a little girl for trying to enter a parking lot with her mom.

Scum bags.
Later Sunday night the Atlanta Police Department said another man was killed and two other victims were injured during an exchange of gunfire just two doors down from the scene of Brooks' death.
Hope the community response gets these murderers.
That same night, 11-year-old Davon McNeal was at an anti-violence cookout in Washington, D.C., when bullets struck him. In Chicago, 7-year-old Natalia Wallace was outside her family's house during a holiday gathering as the shooting began. Both children were killed.
What a huge loss her family must be feeling.

Actually flat out killing people now.

Secoriea’s mother Charmaine Turner said she encountered the barricades and the armed group wouldn’t let her pass. They didn’t give us time to make a U-turn,” Turner said Sunday. “They shot my tires before we had time to turn around.”
In a statement Sunday, police said the girl was in a car with her mother and a friend of the mother when they got off Interstate-75/85 onto University Avenue and were trying to enter a parking lot nearby. They ran into a group of armed individuals who had blocked the entrance.
“At some point, someone in that group opened fire on the vehicle, striking it multiple times and striking the child who was inside,” the statement read. The driver drove the girl to Atlanta Medical Center but she did not survive.
Terry Crews.
“The Expendables” actor then brought up the recent spate of gun violence that claimed the lives of multiple children over the past couple of weeks.
“It’s [the movement] got to be all black lives matter,” he said, adding that “black people need to hold other black people accountable.”
However, Lemon clapped back by saying BLM’s focus is not black-on-black crime. “If you want an all Black Lives Matter movement that talks about gun violence in communities, including black communities, then start that movement,” scolded the CNN Host, analogizing Crews’ statement to asking a cancer group why they aren’t “talking about HIV.”
However, Crews contended that “police brutality is not the only thing they’re [BLM] talking about.”
Lemon countered by saying, “Black Lives Matter is about police brutality and about criminal justice. It’s not about what happens in communities when it comes to crime. People who live near each other, black people, kill each other. Same as whites … it happens in every single neighborhood.”

Is this story not getting coverage because the focus of BLM is about police brutality and criminal justice only? I confess I am totally confused now. I need to educate myself. Thank you for understanding that I am in the learning process.
