I’ll let you guess why they didn’t mention the race in there

The dead girl was named Kyra. That's not a popular name among humans. Mom attempting to drive her to the hospital instead of calling an ambulance for such a serious injury is also a clue.

Depending on where you live or the type of injury, driving to the hospital can be the smarter choice. If you have a massive internal hemorrhage, there's little to nothing an EMT can do, so all the time they took to get to you is just wasted minutes when seconds matter. The only thing that can help you at that point is getting into an OR as quickly as possible. If you can drive there faster, then it's the smart choice.

Average time in the US for ambulance arrival is eight minutes. This girl probably got hit in a major abdominal artery, which means she had maybe ten minutes before she was dead. The only chance she had would have been for the mother to open her up and clamp the artery, which was pretty obviously not going to happen.

Getting an ambulance costs the average person about $1K a pop in a lot of places in the US

Sorry Mr Moneybags that we can't all afford that.

It's not like they roll up and demand your debit card before they load your dying child aboard.

They have to charge you my guy. Healthcare is expensive.

The claim is a 13 year old was somehow able to buy lowers online without having to go through an ffl dealer, which is highly doubtful.

80% can be bought without a FFL. The real question is how a 13 year-old could even buy stuff online. Assuming this story is true, it's a parenting problem.

Which means that the kid had the access and knowledge to convert an 80% lower. This requires a bit more than just assembly, you have to size the jig and drill through metal. How a 13 year old procured all of this without his parents catching on would be astounding.

Always worried about guns, when you can kill yourself with a hammer, a nail, a tube, and a bullet. Perhaps, IDK, people should keep their ammo away from kids.

Yea, I came to that conclusion a few years back. Pathetic

For what it's worth the news site linked in the article has a picture. Makes the confirmation of the guesswork pretty easy.
