I moved from there a year ago to a much safer place, I wish I could bring all the good people down here with me 🙏🏽 stay safe everyone
@MetroCardRat I did too about 2 years ago this was my sons friend
The saddest part was seeing the mom hurting. This is so sad. I really wish our black men could just talk about it. If another man embarrassed you or step on your toe or spoke to you “disrespectfully” or whatever you may feel he did, pull that black man to the side, black yellow white blue, it doesn’t matter but I have to address our black men. We love y’all, we need y’all, we want to see y’all here. It’s ok to be humble. As a nurse, it hurts to see y’all come in on the gurney 5 seconds away from death.
@LowerBroome154 I’m speaking from the heart, I just wish I could hug them, they need a lot of love. And to our black woken who have one they may be a street guy or just one of those hot heads, keep talking to him, find a way to keep him inside. I can’t say what I want to say but so what you have to do to buckle those knees. Seriously, we have to help them help themselves. They need us. Don’t fight with him, love him, help guide him. The babies need our black men, their moms, dads, all of us: if you know you are sitting next to one and you see something bothered him and you know what he is capable of, try to diffuse that.
The city doesn't care they don't even fix the buildings right you think they're going to put cameras
These are no longer city these are now federal grounds
I'm so sorry for those kids and their families, this is the worst, I wish these kids would stop killing each other and find something worth living for
