As the loss of my relative inflicts enormous grief upon the individuals who loved him, as well as the fact that the commission of a murder is highly detrimental to the good order within society, most societies both present and in antiquity have considered it a most serious crime worthy of the harshest of punishment. In most countries, a person convicted of murder is typically given a long prison sentence, possibly a life sentence where permitted, and in some countries, the death penalty may be imposed for such an act. A person who commits murder is called a murderer . No one had the right to put out a light so bright especially when we have so many family members dying senseless in the streets! The only thing that brings us peace is our wall of salvation! The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and one day as this pain and grief will come to an end! I love you Bobby
And for the ones that were comissioned to create such grief all I have to say is Deuteronomy 32:35

To the cowards who did this and James, Lyons , T. , and those to leave a cowardly message after, who would take the time to be heartless, you did not know him. Who are you to judge may God bless the unhappy and weak people ! Lazy people wear rags! People who love him will hurt forever. The difference between Robert Hodges and the previously mentioned he had HEART! ,!!!!!!!!!! 111um%

Why would anyone still be gangbanging at his age most people don't make it to his age, that alone should have been a hint that God wanted him to live, but I guess the gang life was more important than living, anyone who gangbangs and make to 30-35 should retire and throw in the towel, pasted 30 is too old to gangbang learn from his mistake and leave the life it doesn't get you anywhere expect an early death.

It dont matter wht outsiders say..everybody has their own life to live n must report to r creator by r self n give account to him alone. So wht people like sycom or who ever got to say its just words my fellow humans. Just words. Just like the gangs. They use wrds colors n weapons n not n tht order. So guard ya self. The methods we use to catagorically describe people will be used against us if we arent careful. I dont know Jun but i understand.
Ask God n he will change ones heart n mind. R.i.p. Homie crip n or blood n.
