You’re wasting your time J - it’s just a spam comment that hadn’t been purged from the site yet. The comment was copied and pasted straight from another comment on this article.

Well, online arcade, what happened is that the group that got shot at had a gun pulled on them first. Once that gun was pulled the other party opened fire. Seems to me, the two cars following that had 6 people in the 2 cars clearly had the advantage and should have never pulled a gun in the first place.

Asides from the few posts that offered condolences and kept it moving, all but one of the posts (the one by Yvette of Powhatan on Jun. 28) came off either ignorant or in poor tastes. That’s pretty sad seeing as there are 187 comments.

Did someone randomly really bring 9/11 up and offer religion in school as a solution? Folks telling folks not to speculate when they themselves are speculating and lo behold are actually somehow invested in the situation because they know either the victim or the criminal. How does that make sense?

Kids these days, and judging from the comments section, along with most adults need to 1) learn the meaning of empathy 2) learn to tolerate others when they can’t and 3) handle their conflicts differently. There’s few reasons for anyone to knuckle up and there is even fewer reasons for anyone to bare arms.

Also, why were these two boys even in conflict for this long? I don’t know the situation but did no adults step in? We as a society love to only react when there’s a tragedy. Always on some I only found religion or only care for a certain cause now because something extreme happened to me type nonsense.

Anyway, I offer my condolences to the Taliaferro family.

RIP Tahliek Taliaferro

TRUTH…If the opposite had happened it would not be considered a racial crime. All those kids live in a generation of hopelessness. ALL OF THEM! The other boys could have been killed just as easy. Pretty sad all of these KIDS think they need guns. They need a relationship with JESUS CHRIST! Who loves them and died for all of them. I pray for ALL involved. I’m not talking church either, I’m talking relationship!
