It amazes me how our society has become so insensitive or perhaps desensitized to traumatic violence. I mean this is mental and physical trauma at it's peak. Unless a person has been in a war zone, it seems impossible for me to fathom how horrific it must be to be pinned a vehicle with massive gunfire focused on you. Can you imagine the shear terror, fear, how loud it was, and just plain frightening this had to be. I don't care how tough and brawny you are. All of this at the hands of our own public agencies, not a rioting bunch of gang bangers! How could anyone responsible for the government of that city feel like a replacement vehicle, which comes with "strings" attached, is even remotely a fitting restitution. That city owes these citizens a public apology, they need to publicly admit that this was a terrible mistake, and take care of these ladies as if they were soldiers returning from battle. They will be dealing with PTSD for the rest of their lives. They will need and deserve long term "after care". The people of LA should be ashamed.
