  3. How sad, how disgusting that a productive human dies so senselessly. Get the guns off the street and round up the cowards and send them to fight in the wars.

    I was friends wit him for years we grew up together since we was little kids this is why the gang violence needs to be eradicated once and for all needless deaths and senseless crimes are being committed by people who don't care about the city let alone themselves. Whoever did this is going to get his in the end maybe today maybe tomorrow but his time will come when he will have to answer for the sins he committed and when that time comes there will be no forgiveness or lenience. Chicago needs to stop the violence these cops don't do their job and young men and women are dying in the street with no justice
