Sickening. And in my city. When will GOD repay? Judgement shall be deemed a homocide. But what can one do to live a peaceful life. I’m disgusted, lost and confused. In New Bedford? Sad this isn’t the first time. Hopefully they catch the SOB. Lord forgive me and give me the grace. Testify. TESTIFY that to fruition. Cause kids and adults alike walk these streets. And God forgive me for opening my mouth to NE one about this tradegy. Lord. Eyes closed*. Pray for the soul of everyone involved and most assuredly for the lost children who have to deal with this mess. 15? I need to not be afraid.
Wow.! It’s sad when a child is a victim of such violence, my prayers go out to the family especially the parents, being a parent myself I can’t imagine what they’re going through.
