Suspect aids probe into murder near YSU

People, I am a teacher in an Alternative setting. Please take note that not all of the African American children can't read... They hear the negative talk about our young people and it doesn't lift them up at all. Not all of our young African American family/ children are criminals...

Suspect aids probe into murder near YSU

Falconeddy... It wouldn't sound so racist if you would just say some people need to change their values and start puttting more attention to the need of the family... That's what's wrong woth the world today. As a community we don't say malestation of young family members, or teens committing suicide, white collar crimes, priest malestations, children murdering parents / or grandparents is a caucasian problem. Although those statistics are higher in the white race than black. I speak with my 2 young African American male children about all the wickeds of the world because I can't say nor act as though these are only subject to certain races. Jamail was a beautiful spirited man living a very successful life. I surely didn't expect that horrific phone call 5:00am Sunday morning... We have to acknowledge that this crime has no limits.. I realize this now . Our family have values and walk in faith daily but it still hit us. This tragedy has made me want to get involved in my community and see where I can help.
I understand your concerns and frustrations. However, let's not allow these young mens actions to divide us..

Brother: Jamail 'was an angel on Earth’

HarryMuffin, That was my cousin that had gotten killed and I am sorry if someone in your family has lost thier life, However to minimize the life of one for another was exactly the mine set of those that had taken the lives of my cousin or our fellow servicemen... On that particular night, Jamail didn't enlist in a fraternity that he knew there maybe a situation that his life would have to be taken in efforts to save others... He did this in the heat of the moment... Servicemen sign up for these duties and are dedicated and have the upmost respect from the world for doing so... Can my baby cousin please get his appreciation without all the negative comments.. Are we so concerned about the levels of a flag on a pole rather than the level of mentality our young men and terrorist...
