Kinda doubt the trigger perp is a human at all. He is more like a demon.

A UNARMED 5-year-old girl was fatally shot while sitting on her UNARMED grandfather's lap when two people approached her Milwaukee home and opened fire, according to police, who sought help Friday in finding the suspects.

Here's how the article would look if the victim was a different color.

It has become sort of a game.
As this story develops and we start learning names, you'll get to see the accuracy of your guesses.
