Popular Football Star Kills His Lover!

Teen accused of murdering his boyfriend may get life in the iron college. Once the teen was popular student and football star at his high school.

This is one of those stories that has the writings of jealousy and malcontent. A boy who was going to be a future football star wasted it on some dumb shit. I mean if you're spurned by your lover, don't take it personal. I mean yeah, make it personal but don't end killing the lover over an argument.

This stuff happens when a man is spurned by a woman. They happen to get obsessed with the victim. They react to the rejection by threatening retaliation against the victim. They feel rejection as an insult. After all, you do all you can to please your lover and they do you like this. So the man would end up killing his woman over an issue. Say if she had another boyfriend or she is pregnant and its not your child. That stuff occurs in America.

And it also occurs in the LGBT community as well. Sometimes men (or women) are threatened by their lovers when they feel spurned. The spurned lover would do dangerous and outrageous things to their former lover.

And this type of stuff leads to the rise of domestic violence in America.

The victims killed whether in a straight or a same sex relationship use "restraining orders" against the threat.

A restraining order to a spurn a former lover is a time bomb. That time bomb will explode. They would snap when they're served with papers.

Mitchell was a popular student.

A standout football star from Connecticut is accused of murdering his boyfriend.

If convicted of murder, this young man will be serving the rest of his life in the iron college.

Tarence Mitchell, 18 years old is from Bloomfield, Connecticut makes a court appearance this week. He will be charged in the death of his 27 year old boyfriend Ronald Taylor, Jr.

Mitchell confessed to stabbing Taylor, also known as "City," five times, in his torso, at the 27-year-old's home, including leaving the knife in Taylor's back, after the teen tried to break off the relationship. The murder weapon is reported to be a steak knife. The Hartford Courant reports that Mitchell armed himself after Taylor arranged a meeting between the two, promising it "wasn't going to end well." The police report says that Mitchell chased after Taylor and continued to stab him after the 27-year-old put his hands up in the air. Mitchell reportedly suffered minor cut wounds during the ordeal, Taylor was taken to Saint Francis Hospital in Bloomfield, where he was pronounced dead, reports NBC Connecticut.

Mitchell tried to tell the law that he and the victim had been attacked by two black males.

That story didn't add up and he finally confessed.

Mitchell is being held in jail on a $1 million get out free card. Judge Joan Alexander initially set the release fee at $500,000 before raising it. The youngster doesn't suffer from any mental illness, the court heard but "he's extremely confused and upset" about Taylor's murder.

Mitchell was a popular student in his high school. Apparently, the girls loved him. And so did his lover. The lover was jealous. The victim threatened to go with a public "outing" after Mitchell was apparently trying to end the relationship. That set off the events.

Taylor went to Facebook to public shame him and that launched into the tirade with Mitchell. That led to the murder. His family denies he done this. They didn't think a kid with such an upbringing would be a murderer.

Again ignoring the "nice guy" theory. The most dangerous individual is the "nice guy".

I don't blame no one but Mitchell. If anything, I don't understand how a grown ass man would be messing with a teenage boy.

When jealous gay lovers publicly shame their "straight or nonsexual" lovers, it sparks the homophobic reactions and the denials of an affair. It could lead to violence.

90% of the time, men have sex on their minds. They don't care who they sleep with, as long as their sexual satisfactions are met, they're happy. That's probably why there's so many STDs and unwanted pregnancies in the Black community. Some people don't talk about their sexual business in public. That's why they invented the term the "down-low".

Taylor's jealousy and "public outing" is reckless. But in no way Taylor's actions should be an excuse for suspect Mitchell going crazy and killing the man.

Somehow, the young teen wasn't thinking. He had to keep a "rep" with his fellow peers. I mean he had a great time smoking weed, drinking underage and having a little "fun" with Taylor. He couldn't hide that pleasure. I mean Mitchell loved women. He was actually talking with one and that led to Taylor threatening to expose his lover after being spurned.

But in this straight culture, me and millions of Black men still pride ourselves on the masculinity. So it would ruin our street cred with the fellow Black men if one of our friends is gay. That stuff exists to this day.

Black men have to find comfort with the LGBT community. They aren't hurting me. They want to live their lives loving one another. They don't cause no problem to you regardless of what you religious beliefs are.

I mean we seriously need to look at ourselves in the mirror and figure out whether you could be a bigot but not even know it.

Again, I don't care whether you're straight, gay, bisexual or non-sexual, if you're still a human first. You're my friend regardless.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Ronald Taylor, Jr.
