She died.

I'm not a religious man, but for once in my life I hope there is a God. So that he may rain down hell and fury on everyone responsible for this.

While I do agree with your sentiment...well... let's just hope something far more proactive will be done.
We don't need a sky god to punish the responsible. We can do that ourselves, and in a manner befitting the circumstances.

Let her death by a wake-up lightning bolt through the hearts and minds of humanity.

China Daily states that 18 people walked past the little girl's body before she was hit by the 2nd van.

Apparently, the video was shorted. I'm assuming so that it would fit in the news clip.

It's good that the title of this thread has been changed. She no longer seems like just some kid-especially after the video.

May god bless her and keep her heart safe and sound.

Careful what you wish for. There are plenty of sins to account for in and by Westerners.

I know..I'm seriously saying thanks for noticing...no sarcasm intended. I thought maybe no one would notice... Shocked

Again, thanks for noticing.
