Unhappy Just do not know what to say TBH

On Thursday afternoon we received a call that our nephew had been shot in the head. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we say goodbye to our 16 year old nephew. Such an evil world we live in that our children can not even grow old. we are just numb right now knowing that murder is knocking on our own door, we see these things on t.v. and never think that one day that could be our own story. We are just in shock of recent events. Words are not available to be honest to even understand that life just seems to be on hold right now.

Re: Just do not know what to say TBH

Larry buddy, all I can say is I feel so bad for you and your family having to go through this crap. Life was wonderful when all you had to worry about was getting beat up. There are too many cold callused low life scum walking this earth that belong in hell before they die

Re: Just do not know what to say TBH

There really are no words Larry. I am so sorry for the senseless loss that your family has experienced. My deepest sympathies and most sincere thoughts go out to you and yours.

I can't even begin to understand how you're feeling.

Going to hug all my kids right now.

Re: Just do not know what to say TBH

Shot?....wow that's terrible.
I'm never quite sure how that stuff happens.
I've never heard a gunshot in public myself....
Hopefully he recovers for you and your family.

Re: Just do not know what to say TBH

Thank you everyone... It is just unreal the things they did after he was shot, laying there and taking pictures of him and posting them on the school website, just morbid sick scum is all they are. This 28 year old man is in regional jail under protective custody because he had already received death threats in there. He is now facing capital murder charges.

So now as the family is trying to mourn the loss of their son, nephew, brother, cousin they have to be put into protective watch also because they start to receive threats from this scum bags family because of what !! This whole thing is just really like a big nightmare that you are fighting against and trying to awake from.

Now someone gets on this thing called facebook and leaves a comment to the mother saying she deserves it. No mother nor child deserve such a thing. Exactly why this man does not do social media. This forum and it is the only one I am a member of, is the closest I even come to social media. If you want to talk to me you are welcome to call, text, or drive to my home, I do not need social media to contact my loved ones.

Sorry for the long rant but it did feel good.
God bless you all and hug your kids and loved ones every chance you get.

I may have misunderstood the event by my earlier post and thought he had been wounded and I apologize.
Again, my apologies and condolences.
