| − | Secoria's death shifted the Atlanta mayor [[Keisha Lance Bottoms]] narrative from support for the[[Marxist]] uprising to focus on community [[violence]]. At least five other children were also victims of Marxist violence across the United States about the same time. Bottoms, who was being considered by [[Democrat]] presidential nominee [[Joe Biden]] as a running mate, said at a press conference, "I want to see the same anger and outrage. I want to see it on behalf of Secoriea, and all of the other children who are getting shot in our streets.
