OK, once is a tragedy...twice is an unbelievable tragedy...but three times???  Now it sounds as if that family just doesn't know how to stay out of bad situations....

My heart goes out to this family , but 3 children shot down in the streets ! Let me guess hanging with thugs , drugs & rap ? Safe bet because when you have girls getting shot , this isn`t accidental ! When will african american kids wake up ? Stop looking up to these morons on t.v , change your lives because NOTHING is worth taking a bullet for ! You have a choice in life , make the right one !

Unfortunately, as an undrafted rookie, and a free agent last year, Elam never earned enough money to help his family get out of a bad situation.

Seriously, when I think of places I wouldn't go after dark, Utah is the first place to come to mind.  Those damn Mormons will shoot you just for looking at them wrong, they are some bad mofos.  Hanging out on the street corners in those suburban neighborhoods just looking for trouble.  One time two of them came up to me without provocation and pulled the book of Mormon on me, wow was I scared.  It still can't sleep at night after that fateful day in Utah.

you are by far the biggest idiot in this thread and you need to wake the hell up and stop associating all things negative with black people

by the way, aren't you late for your Klan meeting david duke jr.?

I dont think what jet said was racist and i dont think its fair to label him as such. Im not from Utah im from Flint MI....a very mixed place...and full of crime. I have many black friends as well. But the fact is almost all of the murders around here are black on black crime. It's young black kids living the "thug life" shooting each other in the streets and what not. Not all black people are criminals its a very low percentage of black people. There are 90,000 people in my city there were 37 murders last year...thats a few bad apples ........but the FACT is those bad apples are alomost all black. The kids selling crack in the streets are almost all black.

MR jet asked when African American kids will wake up and stop liviing the thug life...its a fair and honest question. He didnt say all black people are criminals.

Sheikbomber - funny!  I'm still laughing and all I can think of is Weird Al's "Amish Paradise" video.

Lessee, according to the story, brother Donald was 14 when he was accused of murder, but acquitted.  Sounds like he spent a good portion of his life engaging in dangerous activities - it's just a matter of time until you can't dodge the bullet.

Sorry, but I don't feel sorry for the family.  I don't know if the 21st Century has hardened me, but I could care less what goes on in the hood, as long as my car doesn't break down driving through it.  I steer clear of South Florida as a rule, it's a cesspool of humanity at best.  Old people, illegal immigrants, and gang bangers - it's a bad combination.

I was all set to move to Utah, then I read your post.  Damn Mormons have ruined it for everybody!

Peace

If he was indicted for murder at 14 than that tells me that the family needed a adult around to supervise these children, three siblings dead in one family where was the parents or guardians, at least one got out of the neighborhood and made something of himself. I just hope that when his career is over he doesn't go back to that neighborhood and revert to the ways of his siblings.
