  1. Another Democrat city destroying red states like cancer. Let's destroy it all because we can just move to Texas and Florida when we're done. By then we still won't learn our lesson as we are cancer and all we know is to destroy. We better start another war to spend money on progressive fuel for the fire. Let's not even put boots on the ground let's just do drone wars only Northrop Grumman is sure to fund us while Soros and gang find terrorism in the name of racism and Democracy the two things that nobody can say no to no matter how sensible the argument of saving our children and the children across seas may be…
    Yeeeee haaaaaaa… Kamala is still waiting on the bus Joe Biden denied in his anti-busing push to keep segregation alive!!!

  2. This is insane but they been doing that up North for a decades. South just catching up unfortunately.

  3. And just think they could have been rap stars or NBA players.

  4. Right, By the end of the summer sure will hear more crimes from them. An mom saying he was an good boy why would someone hurt him, Really 🤦🙎

  5. When I was 6 I stole cookies now I’m 36 am still hooked on cookies

  6. What an idiotic statement. The 6 and 12 year old should be looked at the same way. Does he think the 12 year old should be looked at as a grown man? Both are victims. They're both kids. If they have bad parents, take them and give them a chance at life.

  7. Somethin in those cartoons-what? a bee bee gun? My husband and his brother used to shoot eachother with those for kicks!

  8. If the kid got shot, white supremacists would be the charge

  9. 😂😂America, you just keep giving

  10. Where is mom and dad at???? Need to start holding parents responsible for these little punks running around robbing people and put them in jail!!!! Lock mom and dad up too!!! START BUILDING MORE PRISONS AND LESS PROJECT HOUSING THAT HARD WORKING TAX PAYERS PAY THE BILL ON AND LETS GET AHOLD OF THIS!!! IM SO TIRED OF HEARING HOW PEOPLE HAD BAD CHILD HOODS AND DAD WASN'T AROUND AN MOM WORKED 3 JOBS !! WE NO RITE FROM WRONG,IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST ,ITS WHAT'S GOING ON NOW AND FOR SOME REASON BLACK PEOPLE HAVE PLAYED THE RACE CARD LONG ENOUGH!!! IM SO TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT SLAVES AND CRAP LIKE THAT BECAUSE ITS NOTHING TO WHAT IS GOING ON NOW SO GROW UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS AND YOUR PUNK BLACK KIDS RUNNING AROUND WITH GUNS!!!!! START LOCKING MOM AND DAD UP AND LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS THEN?? SOOOO. SICK OF BLACK PEOPLE PLAYING RACE CARD EVERYTIME THEY DON'T LIKE SOMETHING!!! BIDEN FOR PRISON 2024. WLM

  11. American culture is base on war & violence 😂

  12. So, where are the parents? Some people shouldn't have children.

  13. Not so tragic if the lady was armed.

  14. North Carolina is the new Florida 😮

  15. 1:01 but not the 6 year olds getting their genitals chopped off…

  16. If only the victim would have had their own gun, this story would've had a happy ending.

  17. Monday morning quarter backs 😂. Yall probably on someone else's page going back in my day we use to go outside and play. So judgemental with so little facts…smdh.

  18. In other words, violence with guns is in this family's genes. 😮 We know! 🙄

  19. Thats what happens when you dont even try for mother of the year.

  20. These parents/guardian need to be locked up this makes no sense!

  21. Kids should have been removed from the home before this. 6 year old is not too young to be charged with a crime. You’re old enough to aim a gun, you’re old enough to be charged and convicted.

  22. This is definitely learned behavior and an adult put them up to this. I hope they tell it too😮😢 sad asf. Where the parents at and make them pay…relatives whomever

  23. The south is hilarious. You lead the country in worst economies and lowest education rankings. Instead of fixing that you only focus on culture wars. Whatd you think was going to happen to these kids when they continue to grow up borderline special 🤦‍♂️.

  24. Cod skins are expensive.

  25. Show the pictures of the family members…my relative married jesse james sister he went to war at age 13 killed alot of people in the civil war his commanding officer was 22. Kids killing is nothing new

  26. Photo of the little devils? Of course not in our bleeding heart society. My moneys on them being black..

  27. Where are the parents?

  28. I don’t understand why these kids were unsupervised. Don’t their parents care about their safety, or what they’re up to? The police chief was right. Had the victim been armed, a kid would be dead right now. It’s truly pathetic.

  29. Does "mama" know that her "ill-bred offspring" are "armed" and "dangerous?" If either one was shot and killed, who would she BLAME? Why have BLACK people fallen into this "PIT?" Thieves, murderers, thugs, criminals. "WHY?" Parents who are USELESS and WORTHLESS failing their children at every turn. How MANY more years to go BEFORE the END? NOW, I can SEE why persons known and unknown wanted to STOP BLACK people from producing. Holy cow!

  30. Easy to see the black subculture is completely out of hand.

  31. That's strange of they were white they'd specifically state that….

  32. “We’re being hunted down erryday.” -LeRobbery James

  33. I wonder what demographics they belong to….yeah we all know…the usual.🤔😒🤦‍♂️

  34. Too bad woman wasn't armed. 2 less criminals 😡

  35. If a 12 year old points any type of gun at me, he's not gonna live to see 13.
