It takes more then officials to stop it. Parents and community need to handle their business to. Clear out and call out the wanna be gangs and quit making excuses and covering up when one of ur own ( friends & family) are part of problem. Teach ur kids TO RESPECT ALL LIFE cause passing on the hates just gonna keep everybody angry. My son killed himself this year, i get it. But it takes EVERYBODY doing things different to change anything like this & i’m tired of ALL of us losing our kids. The JUST-US system here is broken, they dont care anout ANY of us. If u dont know somebody ur disposable. But that same outlook is in the streets too. We have to all learn that any life is precious and Stop The Madness. Peace
