A ten-year-old was shot and wounded at his home in Danville last weekend.
Police didn't release a motive, but the child's mother believed the incident was related to efforts to keep drug dealers out of the neighborhood.
The shooting prompted a participant in our web page forum to write:
"...I send out my hatred for drug users and pushers. They all are weak, cowardly people who have no pride in themselves and care nothing about their own future or the future of this country. Drug users and pushers have no place in our society. The pushers belong in morgues and I hope that users can see the light enough to rethink and rebuild their lives. Let me reiterate that drug users are sick and need help. Let me also reiterate that drug pushers are slime and I would gladly and slowly break off their fingers should I have the opportunity to meet one."
Another viewer commended the continuing coverage of the great flood in Grand Forks.
"I am a native of North Dakota and just moved to Blacksburg in January. This is a temporary move and I will be back in North Dakota within a year. I enjoy being able to watch your evening news knowing that I will get the latest on the greatest natural disaster my state has ever seen. Keep up the great work."
