Another young life
This past week in the Chi another young life lost I don't know what it's gonna take but something gotta give. Life should be cherished and young people have to understand life isn't a video game and once you make that decision to pick up that weapon and kill someone just becuz, not only have u taken a life but you've destroyed two families and a community. I live by the rule I ONLY HAVE TO PROVE MYSELF TO ALLAH, NOT MAN. And if someone tells you any order for you to hang with us or for you to be a friend you have to go comment this murder WRONG!. As a former active street organization(gang)member I was never told no crap like that and if someone had said that to me I woulda said you go do. Becuz guys will tell you that lie and then say it came from the chairman or the board, stop listening to stupid ass people, educate yourself and be your own person be a postive leader with-in your family and community.

Agree To Disagree
To all the B.O.S/S.O.S in every community there has to be a positive solution to this senseless violence on the nations streets, especially when it comes to chicago and Indiana. Some will except change and others will never change who want to see communities in terror, because in their cowardly minds this makes them strong. We can never give up on reaching out to those in our communities. Peaceful change may not come over night, but I believe it will come by the communities stepping up and screaming STOP THE VIOLENCE AND GIVE US PEACE.

Tha Movement
Since my days as CEO/Founder of SAVE ONE GANG PREVENTION, have I seen and organization for peace hit the ground running. I had been talking to OG's for years to lets put an organization together and deal with the violence in the streets in a peaceful manner. Because these young men and women may be more willing to those who been in these different street organizations, than to someone who may have read a book on gang activity and really doesn't have a clue as to what's happening. Majority of the time guiys would say " LET EM KILL EACH OTHER SINCE THEY THINK THEY KNOW EVERYTHING ". And in some cases I understand where the OG's where coming from, but on the same note they forgot someone helped us to understand along the way, and they we have families and I know I want my family, friends and just people in our communities to feel safe. I would like to commend Wallace "Gator" Bradley and Jim Allen for working hard and having a vision to bringing peace to the street, by bringing the OG's, Active Organization members together who were once enemies, to come up with a peaceful solution to the problems in our communities through dialog, and they have not excluded other grass roots organizations from the mix either.

RESPECT
As parents we pray for our kids, I have two stepsons locked down Maine and my PR: Oso, who I pray for daily. And today I find out my son Kenyatta was locked down again and it doesn't look good, but I put everything into ALLAH hands. I know I hadn't been the best dad or stepdad in the past, I love my kids. I look up to my boys and they look up to me, I'm hard on my boys, but they all know my soft side. My daughters what can I say they melt my heart, when I try to be firm with them it doesn't work. I just would love for all Latino's and African-American men/women young/old to understand, we're our worst enemy. Killing each other, disrespecting one another. Young G's/ OG's locked down or not; maybe if we respect our women then they could respect us and themselves. Real G's take care and support family, respect their neighborhoods, not destroy them. Our young people treat life as if there's a reset button quick to grap a gun, GOD Help Us. Much love to my three dudes I got mad love for you. And to my little dudes Antonio Miguel and Isaiah, I'm gonna do my best to be a better dad to you and your brothers and sisters. MUCH RESPECT
Remembering Young Life
A 15 year old life has been snuff out, for what reason maybe only the killer and the victim knows for sure. We as inner city americans should be wondering what went wrong, as it pertains to the young lifes lost in the past 3 years. Life isn't a video game we have no reset button, once ur dead ur dead. For some reason young people don't street fight aka box anymore. So I guess carrying a gun gives them that courage to harm or take the life of another, I can give a 3-5 year old a gun and teach them to pull the trigger it doesn't make them a man or woman, it just makes them a child with a gun.
