this is just heartbreaking... another tragic incident where innocent lives are lost 
what's going on in our world? 
first it's about gadgets and tech, but sometimes I wish we could talk about something more meaningful like peace and understanding 
the real heroes here aren't even the ones who survived, but the victims' loved ones who will be left to carry on without them 
u guys can't even walk down the street without getting shot rn it's like chicago is a war zone 
i know the cops are tryin to keep it under wraps but i'm low-key thinkin this whole thing was just some gang beef gone wrong 
idk what's goin on in that neighborhood but it's plain clear we gotta do somethin' about it before someone else loses their life 
i feel so bad for the fam of that girl tho, 26 is way too young to be taken away from us 
just read about that shooting in Auburn Gresham and it's really sad... 26yo woman lost her life and another guy seriously hurt 
i remember when i was younger, gun violence wasn't so common in chicago... 
... or at least find some way to resolve our differences without resorting to guns 
.
can't believe it just because of some crazy dude with a gun, and another guy gets hurt too poor guy's gonna need a lot of prayers for a full recovery 
... i cant even imagine bein in that situation... 
... we need more info to figure out what happened, but one thing is for sure, we gotta do somethin' about all this gun violence 
... it's not just the victims who are affected, their families and loved ones too 
... we gotta keep talkin' and find ways to stop these senseless acts of violence 
...

. The lives lost in this incident should never be forgotten, and it's crucial that we work towards creating a safer and more compassionate society for all 
.
I mean I know guns are a thing everywhere but to think that someone could just go out and start shooting people for no reason is crazy 
. It's like, can't we all just live in peace? The fact that this young woman was shot just because she was driving down the road is just heartbreaking 
. Anyway, back to more important things... have you guys heard about the new Oculus headset that just came out? It's supposed to be insane 
. police need to catch the person responsible ASAP so they don't hurt anyone else 
. this is why we need more community resources and support for people dealing with mental health issues or anything that might lead to violence... like, let's try to find solutions instead of just talking about it 
.
I mean, a young woman and her friend getting caught in the middle of some crazy violence... it's like, what's going on with our city? We can't even go anywhere without fear of being shot or hurt by gang-related violence. And now we're stuck with all these unanswered questions because no one has come forward to talk about what happened. It's frustrating 
We need to do better as a community to support each other and keep our neighborhoods safe for everyone! 
? I know we all talk about it but it seems like nothing ever changes. anyway, my heart goes out to that young woman's family 
. anyone have any info on what happened? maybe someone can help police figure out who did this
