A 9-year-old girl was shot and killed Tuesday in Ferguson, Missouri, while she sat in bed doing her homework, her family says.

"I never in a million years thought that I'd be laying my daughter to rest," said James Bolden, 9-year-old Jamyla's father, KMOV reports.

Jamyla's 34-year-old mother was also shot in the leg, but has since been released from the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.

As of Wednesday night, police had no suspect in the attack, though investigators believe that the shots were fired from close range into the home, which is one block from West Florissant Ave., the center for protests in Ferguson after Michael Brown's shooting death a year ago at the hands of Officer Darren Wilson.

Jamyla's grandmother, who owns the home where the shooting occurred, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that she held her young granddaughter as she died.

"I still have her blood on my hands. She was still breathing. I was telling her to just breathe," the grandmother said, declining to give her name because she feared for her safety.

The child's father urged anyone with information to come forward. "Do it for a 9-year-old child that didn't even get to see the rest of the world," James Bolden told KMOV.

In a news release, Ferguson Chief Andre Anderson said officials will "do everything possible to find the person responsible."

How does this make you feel Nathan? What's your opinion?

[UK2K]

No opinion? Thought provoking question?

Kids are wiped out in Chicago every weekend.

[Godzuki]

obviously black thugs can't do wrong in ferguson, this must be the police's fault :coleman:

[KNOW1EDGE]

Eh, if a white cop didn't kill her then I feel this is a non-story

[GIF REACTION]

Watch what you say Godzuki. You're being racist and discriminating against MY black heritage.

[Patrick Chewing]

Bingo. Black on Black violence is just a result of White oppression.

:applause:

All that needs to be said.

[nathanjizzle]

wow, i cant believe this story only got 7 posts on ish, over all the other threads. what a joke people are.

[Akrazotile]

It's a very sad story. Probably just one of many like it around the country on a regular basis.

There's not much more else to say. We all understand that blacks shooting blacks doesn't carry the same cache for the media and social justice warriors as whites shooting blacks. Nobody should be surprised by the lack of discussion this story sparks on ISH.

At the end of the day, it's sad when a child needlessly loses her life, regardless of the circumstances. That's all there is to it.

Extremely sad. Hopefully they catch the murderer or murderers.

It is sad. But it even sadder and much more pathetic when scum try to use this little girls death to push their agenda.

Its not really any different than using michael brown or tryvon martin or any other death to further an agenda.

Sometimes tragedies highlight particular issues. You cant only be ok with that when it suits your own perspective.

There is hypocrisy in the selectiveness with which people get outraged about the loss of life.

R.i.p :(

My brother, there is no agenda. This is merely exposing the hypocrisy of the media and the Libtards on ISH. All lives matter. Her life mattered and it's a shame her life is lost. The media takes advantage of blacks and doesn't cover cases like these because black on black crime is a "lost cause" to them.

Read my following words carefully. The biggest oppressor of African-Americans today is the media.

We got the info from a media outlet. And the only reason we did is because she lived in Ferguson.

But thats neither here nor there. Blacks are upset when people put in positions of authority abuse it, then get set free. It becomes a black/white issue because whites try to justify it.

This is the type of thing that people should be protesting about instead of that fat fvck Micheal brown

Nine people were reported killed in Chicago in the past week, including two separate fatal stabbings on Monday, according to a RedEye analysis of preliminary police data.

Gunshot homicides were reported in the North Lawndale, Edgewater, New City, South Shore, Roseland and Morgan Park communities.

A 49-year-old woman was discovered dead in the West Garfield Park community Tuesday; police said her death was a homicide but did not indicate how she died.

In the first half of 2015, 216 people have been reported killed, according to RedEye data. That outpaces last year, when 189 homicides were reported through June 30. Throughout June 2015, 46 killings were reported; June 2014 saw 40 homicides.

Just par for the course.

What's the saying? Never let a good crisis go to waste? The media only reports on controversial things, which makes low information dumbasses think its more common than it really is (cop shootings).

And the low information dumbasses eat it up. Then burn down their neighborhood.

[Patrick Chewing]

^ Exactly. The media is creating the division between black and white.


It just doesn't make any sense that blacks would be incensed by a white cop killing a black person, but silent on the daily black on black killings that take place in their own backyard. It's just dumb.

I wonder why that family was a target. Thia doesnt seem random...

[Dbrog]

Extraordinarily sad :(
Reminds me of that Wire episode where the gunfire outside leads to that kid getting shot in his home. Tuggin them heartstrings

I think its safe to say the most likely scenario is that they were targeted by racist whites for being black.

[Derka]

Sad :(
