Just a tragic story for a young man about to embark on his college journey.

This sickens me so much. This young man was sitting in the car not bothering anyone...had a college scholarship. As black men this violence is hurting us so terribly. We have to watch out for cops and even other blacks.

Prayers up to the family.

This is only the beginning ...

They always show out over the summer with the murders .... expect more black college athletes to be killed by guns and zero white ones.

So many reasons for this but a lot of it is we are our worst enemies and these murders are definitely avoidable.

I truly believe that university dorms should stay open year around because of mess like this. Understandably this young man was a freshman but I have spoken with a number of athletes who hate going home because of the violence.

It’s sad.
