Family and friends in Philadelphia gathered on Monday night to remember the 12-year-old boy gunned down while opening his front door over the weekend.

It happened around 3 a.m. on the 5000 block of Ditman Street. Police said Sadeek Clark-Harrison, 12, was at home with his grandmother and his 9-year-old sister, and went to answer the door after someone knocked. He was shot once in the head by a single shot fired through the front door.

I wouldn’t open the door at 3am and I live in a fairly safe neighborhood. Wrong address? Gang related?

Sorry about your luck. How about we defund the police?

as·sas·si·nate
/əˈsasnˌāt/ verb
murder (an important person) in a surprise attack for political or religious reasons.

Not thinking a 12 year old boy qualified to be assassinated. Murdered yes. Random or not.

The left considers this acceptable for promoting its agenda, but one death from the covid is too many.

If the City was controlled by Democrats, they wouldn’t be having any of these problems.

Philly, Camden, Chester, Claymont, and Wilmington are nearly contiguous and might be winning against Chicongo.

I no longer answer knocks at my door, or the doorbell.

People I know text me when they are up the street and almost at my place

I’m sure he was such a fine boy. He got straight A’s in school and was in the choir at church. An angelic voice he had. He was planning to go to medical school and fight racial injustice right after his NBA career.

Note some of the facts:

3:00 am
12 year old boy
At home with grand mother and sister
The 12 year old opens the door and is shot by someone who called his name
Mother spoke the next day, was distraught.
The aunt says the neighborhood needs a change and calls for a 9:00 pm curfew, implying it isn’t safe.

Questions no reporter will ask:
1) Where was the mother at 3:00 am? Apparently not at home. Why not?
2) At 3:00 am, why was a child 12 years old opening the door and not the adult (grandmother)?
3) Where was the father or is he even around?
4) Is anyone in the household involved in criminal activity? What are the crime statistics in the neighborhood?
5) Why does the aunt believe a curfew is needed and why does she believe it will work?

The perp called out the victim’s name. Unless there’s another family member of the same name at that address, if the family’s telling the truth, the vic was the target.

A lot more details at this link in an Italian media outlet...

Per the report, the upper part of the door was glass. Sure sounds like a hit.

“I think it’s time for us to get that 9:00 p.m. curfew back. A mandatory 9:00 p.m. curfew,”


How about passing a law prohibiting shooting people?

More than everyone. Perhaps as many as 125% of the people voted for Biden.

Sounds like a “he dissed me” or gang related.
