Any chance the public will get a “general description” of the suspect?
You see at first i was just submitting anonymous tips, but now im not scared to reveal my name. I believe the public should know a description to. Me and other neighbors of this neighborhood have aggreed the suspect is a mixed individual with curly hair, and what i personally find crazy is that this suspect only looked to be a 16-17 year old teenager!! This is absolutly unacceptable for our youth and is exactly what’s wrong with this generation. Our kids just think it’s okay to run a round doing things like this not understanding the consequences and thinking it’s cool, and you know what i blame? I blame video games and the teachers! These teachers should be teaching what’s right and what’s wrong and proper society skills instead of all this rubish they’re learning. I personally think we need to go back in my day when schools and teachers actually taught how to be a proper human being instead of running around like some animal.
If you want to change the trajectory of their lives, change the culture that they live in. It’s not the video games, because lots of people play those and don’t do deeds like this. But if you look at the heroes, watch the influence movies, decipher the lyrics to the music, all the behavior you lament is enshrined and glorified. When your average person from a group can name 10 rappers, 10 athletes, and 10 movie stars with ease but not name 5 scientists, philosophers, or authors you know that group is destined for trouble because the values are misplaced.
Ms. Smith, their parents should be teaching them right from wrong the first day. By the time they reach the out of control government schools, it’s too late. Many of these lost kids and young adults, shouldn’t have been born in the first place. They shoot each other over the stupidest things or end up in prison. Dysfunctional and irresponsible adults should practice effective birth control methods ! Hard facts, but it’s the times we live in. 🤔
