This is going to be a long sad Summer for these youth SMH parents better get a hold of em
The Child's name is Jaden Pierre and he was 15 yrs old. And yes he died..... Let's give our Condolences for his loss. Damn man too many of our youth are getting killed for senseless situations? This truly needs to stop. Stop the Violence, because it doesn't solve anything, and just leads to death...
@Saundie60 hold the parents responsible for this as well. Crime will stop when parents have to spend time in prison for their children actions.
Crying about gun laws in a state where guns are heavily restricted and there’s still shootings. You can restrict them all you want criminals are gonna still find ways to obtain them. This is a culture problem not a gun problem.
@d_j__butler it’s not the gun laws it’s the black market for guns. Guns are easy to get and these wannabe tough guys love guns
Another child that didnt get to live his life.. sad .. these children be so bored and jealous of what each other has..it make no sense
