"It's like he's still here, and I feel him holding me up," she said."

I'm sure the couple in the car felt him holding them up too ... albeit briefly.

Skin tone of shooter not described. I hope this does not turn into another Trayvon Martin case.

With a name like Ja'Quares, the kid was marked for thugdom from the start.

And the mom -- yelling from the house does not constitute watching your children and knowing where they are going and with whom. If you don't know the people that just rolled up to take your *13* year old kid somewhere, get your ass out to the curb and find out. Sheesh.

There was a music video of a girl about that age talking about getting in the backseat of boys cars. I am surprised it wasn’t a big hit.

Police say he was in a car that pulled into the parking lot of the complex shortly after 11 p.m. Police say he wore a shirt around his face like a bandanna, approached a vehicle with a gun and ordered the driver out. Authorities say the driver pulled a gun and shot Ja’Quares.

His death probably will ultimately save many people’s lives who would have been future victims.

Too much. Someone does a little memorial and does not spell his silly name correctly.

Sounds suspiciously like a ‘community organizer’ working on stepping up the training. This supposed ‘uncle’ may not even be from Alabama. The ‘organizers’ who have been training the flash mobbers are not from the areas they’re working.
