15 Year Old Shot at School Bus Stop in BR

Aw bruh, just another day in Sherwood.

Lol Sherwood at Florida is pretty ghetto

Sherwood anywhere is pretty ghetto right now.

Go to Sherwood and Coursey after dark and it looks like casting for the next Fast And Furious movie.

This is the 4th teen shooting story I have heard about within a week.

There were two around New Iberia I believe and one in Lafayette.

Very sad. But I suspect it is not a random shooting. The kid probably had some sort of "beef" with another kid/group of kids, and this is the result. Politicians can scream about being tough on crime all the want (and it certainly would help if they were). But the sad reality is that one culture that predominates Baton Rouge doesn't see it as completely outrageous to settle a disagreement/dispute by attempting to kill the person with whom you are angry. It is, sadly, accepted by many as a commonplace happenstance of life and a day where someone in the community isn't killed is a "good day" rather than something that should be the norm.

You don't see these types of things very often in more affluent neighborhoods not because wealthier people don't get angry with others. They have the capacity be furious just as anyone else. But because shooting someone is not considered a reasonable way to settle a dispute.

"He disrespected me!"

Always a sold reason to commit murder.

As the Boondocks would say, this is one of those moments which is the #3 killer of black men after FEMA and pork chops.

“You’re wasting a perfectly good opportunity to throw your life away!”

According to WBRZ the teen was walking to Broadmoor HS when a tPOS tried to mug the teen and was subsequently shot.

Was he shot with a bow considering the street name?

I didn’t think that area was that bad, but who knows.

... is this a trick question ?
