  1. Every day we watch someone getting murdered in Detroit. Theyโ€™re always good people, who are completely innocent victims.
    The problem is the criminal lifestyle is normal to them. They cannot even see that the way they live is the reason they die.

  2. This is what happens when you vote Democrat. The elected Democrats have turned the cities into war zones because they refuse to put criminals in jail. Actually, you should blame the Democrat voters for her death. ๐Ÿค”

  4. crazy what blacks are really worried about. Reporter: "their also hoping the community comes together and donate to their Go fund me". what should be said " their hoping the community comes together and turns these guys in or how about hoping the community comes together and end black on black violence. But their more worried about money

  5. Just when you think Detroit couldn't get more violent and deadly…. these shootings are like breathing there. Its endless. So many robberies, drive by mass shootings, car jackings, bank juggings, violent and deadly home invasions, bullying, beatings, brickings, knockout games. It was such an uncivilized place in the last 30 years its getting so much more uncivilized and savage. Why would anyone want to move there due to the problematic people that destroy and murder. Plus they will steal anything and everything because they don't want to work. Its a land filled with diarrhea.

  6. I had a friend who did something stupid like this, and he's in jail for the rest of his life. He shot up a house had no clue if his target was there or not, ended up taking out a kid. It's dumb, these babies have a whole life taken by humans who hardly understand how and where babies come from. Teach one another, Love one another, hurt ppl HURT PEOPLE. Stop the dumb shit cutting your life and other people life short for nothing more than 3 meals and a cot

  7. I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING THIS VIOLENCE AT ALL.

    JESUS WILL CALL AND KAYLA WILL ANSWER UNTIL THEN REST UP SWEET CHILD. JOHN CHAPTER 5:28/29.

  8. This country needs tougher penalties. Every state needs the death penalty, and it should be carried out swiftly, after all evidence is collected gone over, until they come up with a reasonable conclusion, and then get these people out of here. The hell with prison time, or life.

  9. Omg! This is entirely too much between this and fentanyl, this is a pandemic and I don't want to be a person that complains but don't do anything…as citizens, how do we convey to young people that life is amazing and they are missing it? Their parents are failing!!! We have to save the young people, we have to bring them up with open minds, new experiences, people need to care!!! I can't imagine and I'm not trying to …my condolences go out to the family…smh๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ™

  10. Another young life lost due to people using firearms. Itโ€™s not the guns that are killing people itโ€™s people killing people with firearms but people are allowed to have firearms including military grade weapons because itโ€™s their right but the issue is people with no soul who have no issues shooting up a house. When is enough enough?

  11. Wow I have a big ass family real big with 5 generations alive and we have only had one person ever shot in our family it was my 16 year old great niece hit in the head in a car when some ignorant ass kid started shooting. And because of the city it was in for the first time in our family's history the funeral made the news because because someone started shooting out side the funeral home. This generation is f..ked.And most of the black kids in the city are crazy ass monster run by the devil. I am from the Martin Luther King days he had a dream. That shit is all over with.And the graveyards are over flowing with young black people. We worried about the white man killing us growing up. Now the number one killer of a black man is a black man.God help us.

  12. if you only protest/riot when you can blame "white people"…then the black on black crime will only keep increasing
    Notice how BLM only shows up rioting and screaming when they can pin something on "white people"? Well that explains why black criminals are GETTING AWAY with murdering more black people every day…. if you want the violence to stop— maybe PROTEST AGAINST CRIMINALS PERIOD

  14. You know this is the most pathetic thing horrible thing involving these idiots with guns they run around talking about black lives matter but this is the results of black lives in the city just doing normal things minding they business taken away from them because these idiots that shouldn't even be on the streets anyway once you check their records are still running around with guns. Where is Al sharpton now and Ben crump. Nowhere because it's not a white officer involved and it's not a 25 million-dollar lawsuit it's a sad thing that they should be in the city demanding the death penalty in 30 days for these idiots that's pulling these triggers
