How many people did Mom snitch on? Her son would be alive had she taken control, but she waited until it was too late. How many people will she snitch on now? None? People like her enable the drug users and killers. I feel sorry for her, but she has some guilt in this, too.
The first one shot wasn’t in a gang and was home by 9 pm. That was an accident.

Exactly right. Just like the “victims” of Katrina.
My only question...What was that Amish boy doing in the Pontiac to start with?
Great description! The sad thing is this is Bambi's vision for the entire country (except that some of us might not even get the food).
This info came from the same woman that described Anthony "as respectful and a 'good boy.'" Sorry, but I have to call BS.
A major Little Rock politician had their daughter murdered and thrown out on a bridge and nobody knows a thing about that either.
FWIW, I lived in LR (West Little Rock on Chenal Pkway) for several ( 8 )months about 10 yrs. ago, and I have been through there many times. Just telling you my opinion.West LR was very nice-and there were some other nice areas. However......much of it-including parts that looked as if they were fairly recently quite nice, weren’t-to say the least.
It’s in all cities. The bigger the city, the more it’s present. Now if you want a city that is 80%, try New Orleans.
True that, with any community. A hand out isn't a hand up.

My dear lady, where was the young man’s father?
Boys with fathers in the home get murdered, too. But the odds are heavily stacked against it.
Fathers, stay with the family and raise your kids.
That case was solved! He was former mayor of Little Rock, living in Maumelle. Daughter's car broke down and a "newbie" rapists, on his first try, panicked as she fought to get away and ran over her, killing her.
LOTS of heat on that one since it happened in BROAD DAYLIGHT on the I-430 bridge over the Arkansas River.
Criminal confessed to a priest, and they both went to the police station a couple of years later and confessed. He pled guilty (no trial) and was sentenced to life in prison. White victim, white criminal.
My father drove in and out of Little Rock for Trailways Bus, back in the 40’s and 50’ and Little Rock was nothing like it is today. (Neither was any of our other U.S. cities).
One of our greatest assets have long been lost. We have failed to teach our younger generations: “By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.” (Proverbs 16:6)”He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness and honour.” (Proverbs 21:21).
“Wherewithal(how) shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. With my whole heart have I sought Thee; O let me not wonder from Thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee.” (Psalm 119:9-11).
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD;....” (Ps.33:6)
correct me if i am wrong, but God does not control the actions of men. especially men with no faith. so please, mom, don’t look look to Him for answers. look in the mirror.
I just didn’t want anyone from Ark. to think I was trashing their state or any LR residents to think I was trashing their city without ever living there. I didn’t mean to trash it, period. I met lots of nice folks there. But facts are facts-lots of areas of LR are in a bad way. And it’s one city of many. A damn shame.
Amen....Damn shame....lots of cities like ours.....and liberalism is to blame!
Agreed.
“…the consensus is that no more than five to ten people in a hundred who die by gunfire in Los Angeles are any loss to society. These people fight small wars amongst themselves. It would seem a valid social service to keep them well-supplied with ammunition.” Jeff Cooper
AMEN!
