This one hits close to home, Daeon, the kid mentioned in the article is one of my baseball players, that I have coached since he was 8 years old. He just accepted an offer to play baseball at Butler University. He was raised by his grandfather and grandmother after his birth mom OD'd and his biological father was in prison for murder. Ed (the grandfather) did everything right to raise and protect this boy from his environment. He had a 3.9 GPA, was involved in athletics, as respectful as they come. He had everything going for him and was set to escape a rough start and an even rougher neighborhood.
He was shot and killed last Friday, yet not one single lead or tip has come into the detectives investigating. Door to door questioning has been nothing but "didn't see or hear anything." No sign of any black lives matter organizers or community leaders or ministers demanding justice over his life what so ever.
But, here we have the Darwin award winner that let police on a high speed chase, fled the car, fired 2 shots at officers before being killed by a black officer and the entire city is up in arms...demanding "justice."

Apparently black lives only matter if you are shot by a cop or killed by a Caucasian, then it matters. If it is black on black crime, it doesn't mean squat. Police Action Shooting there are 10 witnesses with cell phone video ready to spew their guts to anyone that will listen. Black on black crime...nobody is "Snitchin'."
Usually, Friday nights are our team dinner nights, I buy all of the boys dinner and we hang out as a team. I have a few boys that are from inner city or rough neighborhoods. Since we play ball on Saturdays and Sundays, I have done the team dinners on Fridays to try to keep the boys away from making bad choices or hanging out around the wrong people on the weekends. Thanks to the Covid-19 lockdown, I have not been able to get together with my boys. Maybe if we had been at dinner last Friday, Daeon would still be with us. His life needs to be added to the growing number of lives that have been lost thanks to this extreme overreaction by our government to this "pandemic."
