It’s sad that people can sit here and make fun of the life of a teenager who was taken way too soon. Whether he was a gang member or not, he was still somebody’s child, somebody’s loved one. At the end of the day, a child lost his life, and that is nothing to make fun of. It’s truly sad—very sad.
Agreed.
Pray that you would never have to experience losing a child in such a tragic way. Jesus give strength and comfort to those affected by this devastating loss 🙏🏼
Get these thugs off the streets teaching our youth that this is the life
Absolutely heartbreaking. 💔
