[Two Kids' Dad]

Jakela Foster was employed and had taken at least one college class, according to the article. She wasn't trash by most people's standards. The picture posted upthread looks like a nice normal young lady. If she had been home with her child she'd be alive today. No house party is that important.

To me this is very sad that she lost her life to mindless thugs.

I once had a fresh air program young child who came to our house every summer. His gradma (they lived in Harlem) did not allow him out of the house to play because of this crap. There’s no way should could protect him as he grew older if she was to live in a Black area of the States.

When the summer was over and he headed back to Harlem we cried. He cried because his fun time in the country was over and I cried in fear someone was going to kill him.
