How did they manage thAt? One round hit both? Mechanical issue with gun caused burst fire? The Darwin committee will want to know

You have to admire the lack of talent required to get them BOTH

All I know is that poor young man in the photo had a freakishly misshapen head that prevented him from properly wearing a hat.

You have to wonder about a family that would release a photo of their son in a wannabee thug selfie pose after he offs himself with stupid gun play.

Proof that stupid is hereditary?

I am trying, really trying, to find some sense of sorrow. Nope, can't find it.

And, to me, that photo says it all.

No, no. That pic was in great taste! Guarantee there were plenty of pictures like this, featuring THE gun that they didn't release. I'd damn near put money on it.

not so much in the kids defense, yet...

these were 2 kids who were both okay to good in school and had afterschool jobs.
The culture of The Streets reaches past those kids it can assimilate to those who are constantly exposed to it.

So now it is okay to play with a gun...
