Anyway, I think the important thing to remember here is that nobody wants to live in a neighborhood where stuff like this happens.  Black, white, whatever.  [/quote]

I don't really feel like that is the important issue here. I feel the important issue is that two children are wounded, a number of other children have probably been traumatized, and a man acted heroically. It is the fact that very few seem to consider that to be important that bothers me.

It was all over the morning news. It's not that is isn't important, it's that it isn't important on your website. DC urban moms or not, there are clear social and economic divides here. I'm not surprised at all that it wasn't mentioned, and took almost 50 views before someone responded.  All this story does is reinforce the views that SE is a subpar part of DC. Any thoughts or concerns about the hero and victims take a backseat.
