This is NOT normal bro. These are signs of mental illness. The fact that as a community cannot gather together without someone losing their lives or getting shot at is genuinely disheartening
True.
Can’t have house party, graduations,baptisms,beaches,basketball games because always violence.
@TGFun sweet 16! Don’t forget the sweet 16!
Nothing funny about this it could be anyone of us or our children or family member. There is no fun in the games anymore because of EVIL cruel sh** like this. Prayers to all who are affected by this.
There are too many animals roaming the streets with no regard for human life. If our politicians don’t stop showing leniency towards these folks this will never end.
@duke048 putting blame on this government for our culture is ultimate deflection. That shit starts at home, and our people need to really stop being comfortable and complacent with BARE MINIMUM. Comfortable in the PJs, comfortable with their vices. Comfortable with competing with each other, comfortable with the hood politics. 50s, 60s and 70s, 80s and maybe 90s, POC had a different and stronger strength of connection. Ofc I believe our government of course had their faults in our demise, but to what point do we as a collective make the change for ourselves. At what point do we stop hiding behind this fake victimhood and content of letting our people get away with bottom of the barrel antics. We must do better and it starts with us on the ground level on the street.
