May he rest in perfect peace and may his family find some comfort knowing they loved him while he was here

I remember the messed up shyt i was doing @12, defo smoking weed

Thank heavens my life was not cut short prematurely and i have gone on to do many things as a responsible adult that overshadows those wild days
We all deserve the chance to grow up, wisen up and make a change in our lives, irrespective of our environments

Yeah.... I don't think anything was lost with young brehs untimely passing. We gotta stop wrapping our arms around certain archetypes in the community. That's how we all get grouped together. What from these posts show that him or the people he around were ever going to do something positive or constructive for the community. I have no sympathy for crying grandma's or family talking about he was a good kid. You see these posts. They failed him. They should be shamed and shunned for producing a child like that.

wow

when I was his age I was on the same type of time excluding the drugs

Fathers have lots of power when they live in the home and do the daily work of raising their children. It's not that hard. My husband does it every day and so do all his friends with kids.

Black fathers matter and are desperately needed.

Like you said it's not hard... so what's stopping black fathers from raising their kids?

Same double gun pose can be found here from this 14 year old in Alabama.

Don’t give a shyt.

He’s in power, it’s his problem.

Funny how Mayor "Groupie" Dic kens seems to evade blame in all this.

The kid was allegedly a water boy that was well known on 17th Street.

Dic kens ran on Crime and hiring more APD - will you hold him accountable for failing on his end?

Looks like he was emulating the behavior and lifestyle that's promoted and glorified the most in the black community.



Too bad he was never taught the cons of said lifestyle.


Another victim of da culture.

shyt like this has been happening way before Kemp or dikkens got in office




lil bro who got killed is from mechanicsville. Back in the mid 2000s/early 2010 it was a gang called 30 Deep in that hood who did smash & grabs and killed folks & a lot of them were 12-16 ish. Pre teens in gangs is a rite of passage over there.



Y’all can’t say what Kemp & dikkens are/aren’t doing. This shyt is deeply embedded in the city. The fukkin culture & who black folks glorify need to change!!

I can’t relate to this. There’s no reason in the world my 12 year old gonna be running out in the streets at 8 on a school day. Nah that ain’t happening.

So sad!! Partaking in a lifestyle that’s extremely high risk but offers little to no reward.

There are 20-40 plain clothes police officers around Atlantic Station at any given time…

There’s a curfew at Atlantic Station and the group of kids was kicked out, so they took the bullshyt down the street to the bridge.

You want an APD officer assigned to every family to be a parent?

The intended target died today (15 year old).
