YOUTH & GUNS
Earlier this week, a lady posted a video of a young child around age 7 or 8 walking around the streets carrying a gun. This posses multiple problems for me, because of recent actions over the past year. 1st - the kid could be mistaken as a problem child and shot, Tamir Rice
2nd- kid could have shot another kid on accident
3rd- kid may be mistaken for a kid in a gang
All three of these are negative outcomes. No positive outcome comes from a young kid carry a gun, we have to protect our youth because their our future. Our kids think its okay for them to guns because what they see in their lived experience, whats on tv and movies and especially what they hear in music. With famous rappers like Kodak Black, guns and killing is glorified in the black community.
