Manslaughter? Did he pull the trigger or not?

Rondell the shooter doesn’t help push The Agenda.

Therefore Rondell gets ignored.

Such a beautiful little boy...

Well, maybe now. But if he had 10 or 12 more years, we'd have a different opinion of him.

“Well, maybe now. But if he had 10 or 12 more years, we’d have a different opinion of him.”

I don’t know about that. This child had a mother and a FATHER. It doesn’t specifically say but it sounds like his family was intact and his name was Chris and not some crazy name. His mother referenced Memorial Day. He may have had a chance at a normal life with two caring parents.

Sad to say that is SOOOOO true.

And the perps get a slap on the wrist.

The only consolation, if there is anything good to say about the situation, is that the little boy is in heaven and will never meet his murderers again.
