This is terrible to keep seeing these shootings happening in our inner cities. As a white man from Long Island, I can only pray that the youth has more opportunities to advance in life as it is not their fault. Years of racism combined with a culture that has seen high numbers of its fathers, locked up, who can these young individuals lean on for guidance? We need change, we need change NOW.

Send in a social worker to give everyone hugs. That will solve the problem.
