The sister of a 7-year-old Houston girl shot to death in her family car said she locked eyes with the killer before he started firing into the vehicle holding a mother and four daughters.

Investigators are trying to determine a motive for the attack that killed Jazmine Barnes. The girl’s mother, who was shot in the arm, said she believed the attack on her African American family was motivated by race.

I thought we weren’t to jump to conclusions. What if the shooter was Muslim or a transexual? Or, worse, a Muslim transexual?

In that case, do we even know the girl was shot while in the car? Could she have been shot at home and moved to the car for a cover story?

Not to belittle this tragedy, but during this news cycle, how many black children were killed by black shooters? How many white people were killed by blacks?

This “white” shooter is scum, I concur, but why is a black shooter just dog bites man?

How come everyone in that family has a different last name?

The CIA / Deep State activates a white man to commit a murder of Our Nation’s Most Precious Commodity™ to deflect from illegal scum murderers.

Be ironic if the shooter turns out to be an illegal alien.

[The shooter's description has since changed:]

My God, it's Peter Weller...

(This photo actually IS Peter Weller, not the suspect)

fourth, kind of skeptical about mom on a coffee run with the kids.

We suspect that she knew the attacker and that the attack was gang or drug related....it’s Houston.

And a “pre-dawn” coffee run at that. I wonder how much pre-dawn?

About every 18 hours a White person is murdered by a black criminal.

The vast majority of interracial violence is black on White.

But that isn't what the left and the msm want us to know.

If the shooter had been black we would have never heard a word about it. And how could she tell his eye color from that distance?

There are cameras all around the beltway in Houston... the entire city is literally under surveillance... It shouldn’t be long before they get this guy.

I live in a suburb of Houston. If I remember correctly the shooter was identified as white or Hispanic with a beard.

We live in the burbs too and mama said white man and daughter had input with sketch artist and gave the shooters description. That mother should not have one red cent given to her........that precious child’s funeral is paid for and that should be the end of it (unless they want to arrest her). Don’t get me started on what I think of this. I think they ought to shut down that Gofundme NOW.
