What Happened To Qua'Lek Shelton?

Ohio teen loses his life to gun violence.
The tragedy death of a promising high school student and athlete.

Gun violence doesn't take a break. Everyday, there's at least some form of gun violence in the United States. I mean there's so many stories that I could have covered this month involving gun violence.

The Democrats never had an opportunity to address this issue during last night's debate. Each of the candidates were focused on getting the "most buzzworthy" catch phrases.

An Ohio teenager was gunned down on Sunday.

The Dayton Police announced the death of 15-year old Qua'Lek Shelton.

Qua'Lek and another teen were shot in a local neighborhood on Sunday. The promising teen was a standout athlete from Dunbar High School.

The other victim, a 16-year old was treated for his conditions.

On Tuesday, Qua'Lek died from the injuries he suffered. He was shot in the neck and died of his injuries.

Shooting in Dayton neighborhood.
The law have an idea of who's the shooter. The terrorists left their escape vehicle in a neighborhood in Jefferson Township. The Montgomery County boys said that the vehicle matching the description was found by neighbors after two nights of uncertainty. Folks thought the vehicle sitting on the street was just a broke down from a neighbor.

Qua'Lek was a standout runner, wide receiver and cornerback football star for Dunbar.

His coaches believed he was hoping to see him one day in the Summer Olympics.

"He was small in stature but huge in confidence and determination," Dunbar assistant track coach Alfred Powell.

Shelton was a freshman at Paul Laurence Dunbar Early College Preparation High School.

His family is preparing for his burial this week. Having to bury their child has to be the most devastating thing to happen.

Dayton Public School superintendent Elizabeth Lolli released a public statement on Tuesday.

"The Dayton Public School District is saddened by the loss of Qua'Lek Shelton. His family, friends, classmates are in our thoughts. Crisis team members are available for those who need extra support."

Those involved will face homicide, first degree murder, assault with a deadly weapon and fleeing the scene of an accident. These charges are felonies and in the state of Ohio, conviction is 18 to LIFE or DEATH. If the individuals are juveniles, they will likely be charged as adults in the matter.

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

The status quo of the gun culture. Now is not the time to talk about gun violence!

If there were more security guards and more civilians (aka the good guy) with a gun.......

They learn how to use firearms from watching (or listening) to gangsta rap.

They watch violent movies.
Dayton Public Schools release a statement on Qua'lek Shelton's death.
They don't have fathers or mothers in their lives and it results in them committing criminal acts.

Blah, blah, blah....

Moments of silence, street memorials, naming of public places, saying "Your heart goes out to...," lowering of flags and hashtags are platitudes. They are a huge waste of time. It's a man-made crisis created by a lazy ass government. They are enabling this. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They are numb to gun violence.

The "good guy" with a firearm is the most dangerous person to have a firearm. Matter of fact, the NICE GUYS are often the ones who are spurned by society. Bad relationships, losing your job, jealousy over promotions, family feuds and racism are typical NICE GUY issues.

NICE GUYS ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIVIDUALS WITH A FIREARM.

THE NICE GUY GETS SPURNED BY SOCIETY. THEY TAKE REVENGE ON SOCIETY.

RESTRAINING ORDERS ARE JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. THEY WILL NOT (I REPEAT) STOP A "MAD" MAN FROM OBTAINING A FIREARM.

Don't you just want to scream!?

Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."

We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.

I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."

I am getting really tired of dealing with mass shootings.

Is it painful to see a child lose their life to gun violence?

Yes
No
Other
Please Specify:

Every poll I put out comes with the same stupid ass trolls picking something that doesn't resonate with the general consensus. We're getting tired of this.

Every time these folks offer "thoughts and prayers," "their condolences," "their hearts going out to," and "their apologies," they are not sincere. For every naming of a road, park, bench, building and holiday, it won't matter to the community. For every time they lower flags, offer moments of silence and candlelight vigils, we just offer "feel good-isms."

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.

We have mass shootings in the United States everyday. We are the only country in the world that continues to do nothing about this. Donald J. Trump, Congress, the National Rifle Association and agitators in the junk food media have moved on from dealing with this. They're too busy sniping over partisan blame games. With Trump being impeached while in office, he's unlikely to focus on gun violence.

Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic. It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.

It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. A mass shooting will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how "guns save lives." They don't. The only thing that survives a gun shooting is the gun.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

THERE IS NO GOD.
