In early June, distraught over a shooting inside his home that left two children with gunshot wounds and a third child dead, Tremelle Raymond Sr. vowed he was moving out of Liberty City.

He did. It didn’t matter.

Early Tuesday morning, his fourth child, 16-year-old Jemelle Raymond was shot dead inside a car in a quiet Miami Gardens residential neighborhood. Also killed was 18-year-old Dre’quan Burnett. A third person, Rodney Goree, 20, was shot but is expected to survive.

"Last year, 35 children and teenagers were killed by guns."

Or rather by people! Or perhaps gang members.

I think your odds of getting shot dead inside a car increase exponentially if your name is Jemelle or Dre’quan.

Bad people doing bad things around other bad people do tend to get shot sometimes.

By the other bad people.

Miami Gardens is anything but a garden. It’s not quiet either. Shootings are common.

“Miami Gardens is anything but a garden. It’s not quiet either. Shootings are common.”

That is exactly what I was thinking. I get my information from the TV show 48 Hours.

Dre’quan hit the exacta with both a Q and an apostrophe in his name. Zero percent chance anyone else with that name is non-black.

Okay, so who let their gun walk around outside without adult supervision?

Moving can’t matter when you take the mindset and culture WITH you! Its how you live and who you associate with that is killing you. Like finds like.

My heart breaks for that family. Your summation of this tragedy was quite appropriate: losing so many family members, particularly one's children, must be absolutely hellish.

Praying that God surrounds them with love, peace, strength, and protection.
