this is so sad another young life gone for nothing.
Pooh may you rest in peace, you will never be forgotten!
Jessica, you’re shameless … take that somewhere else, please.
Why does this violence insist on persisting? Why aren’t the bad guys being killed instead of hopeful talented youth? Kids killing kids over what? Jealousy. Instead of them competing with each other to get what the other one has, they believe they can just take your life and take what you have. But what goes around come around sweetie, what out cause GOD is watching. Ya’ll ain’t gonna get away with your evil ways forever. GOD bless the family and friends of the wonderful young talented man who was robbed of his life. Be strong, have faith, because GOD will pull you through this. I know, I was there.
This is sad….so so sad. Its a shame it really is. I am at a loss for words. My sympathies go out to his loved ones, family and friends.
Lord help us all in these last days!
Its really sad how the violence is increasing among the young ppl. My heart goes out to his family.
He isn’t from South Carolina. He is from South Florida. Such a heartbreaking story that seems to be played out over and over again.
This is a shame. Another young person’s potential cut short. May his family be comforted in this their hour of loss. When will the violence end. When will our young black men see another way. So unnecessary we need to stop this. How many more young men will we lose. Those who were striving to do the right thing and attempting to be sucessfull. Another case for the news media. We need to stop it. We need to band together. Again God bless this young mans family. I have 2 sons myself. I continue to pray for them and all young black men of America.
These tings are so unnecessary, senseless and stupid. This young man would have gone on to be someone great in our lifetime, and instead of celebrating his achievements they choose to be corwards and end his life.
To his family my deepest sympathy, i know it’s never easy loosing a love one but keep your faith and gods speed..
A young life gone too soon and for what…(crying)
My deepest sympathy to his family and friends
He is with God now.

This is so sad.. may he rest in peace, And may God be with his family….

It really dosent make sense for our people to live like we are savages. We are making seem like all we can do is fight and kill one another. The time and efffort we put in all the none sense we could be putting it in to something positive.
