But shot to death by a brother or a sister in their own home?
Two accidental shootings in Georgia this weekend killed two kids.
Each with a different story. "My little sister wanted me to hold her 12 gauge shotgun. It went off while I was unloading it." If that is what happened, oh, the hole left in the parents hearts.
A little girl shot to death with a 12 gauge shotgun by her brother. It's said that children imitate adults.
The second 'accidental shooting' resulted in an arrest. Different city in Georgia. Different situation. Different color skin?
Meanwhile, police in Savannah are investigating the death of an 11-year-old boy who was killed by a gunshot while he and a friend handled the weapon in west Savannah.
Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police say a 12-year-old, who they described as a playmate, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, reckless conduct and possession of a firearm by a person under 18.
West Savannah. Let OutKast describe it. "Frazier home." "Baseball caps slightly pointed east." "Sade in the tape deck." "Diggin' the scene with a gangsta slouch." "Nine in the hand ... "
Words from OutKast.
So one 12 year old from west Savannah is facing charges of involuntary manslaughter, reckless conduct, and possession of a firearm by a person under 18. He's black.
The other family was white.
Guns do not provide justice. It seems like Georgia doesn't care about providing justice either.
