Not the kind of shooting democrats care about

So very sad! The collateral damage these 'gang-bangers' leave loved ones to deal with is the worse thing about crime in US. They just don't care who gets killed. 🙏🏿💔

This is devastating

Rest in heaven young angel 😇

How does a family recover after the tragedy of losing a child?

Tragic and senseless death ... Happens almost weekly in Chicago. Democrats in power = no safety or accountability.

So damn sad.

Just another day.
