Teen Trauma

     Well the big brave boys that call themselves gang-bangers did it again. A family whose car broke down in a bad neighborhood in the south-side of Chicago found themselves victims of gang violence.

While the father was tending to the broken down vehicle, his wife and three year old son sat in a nearby park. Someone came out of the alley just as the father was preparing to gather his family back into the car but it was too late. This person went over to the wife and child and opened fire hitting the child in the neck. The little boy is in the hospital and is alert in stable condition.

     This story is all too common in gang infested neighborhoods all over this country.

It makes you sick. First if gang-bangers are supposed to be so tough how come the little cowards can’t fight fist to fist, man to man, instead of hiding in alleys and even more cowardly, doing drive bys.

     Secondly, don’t carry a gun if you can’t shoot it straight. Do they ever hit their targets? Hardly. Most of the time the bullets hit innocent woman and children. These mindless little wastes of space would be doing everybody a favor if they would actually hit their targets of rival gang members.

     Yes, I know that if we took these poor unfortunates one at a time and put them in therapy and helped them, they might leave the gang life, but the problem is we all have kids of our own to protect and jobs to go to, and homes to keep. We don’t have the time or resources to worry about these criminals. So again, if you’re in a gang, and want to kill your rivals, make sure you big men don’t shoot anymore babies. Face each other and go to it.
