sick of children dying over stuff that has zero to do with them. Aren't even safe in their own homes.

I live 20 minutes outside of St. Louis, and the only time I’m there is driving through it while leaving town. The crime is terrible.

RIP to the young boy who was just playing video games in his room. I’m sick of kids being victims of violent crime!

I'm disgusted that a kid can't be sat in his room playing video games without being in danger of dying. RIP little D'Uwan.
