What started out as a “Family Oriented Event” at Texas Southern University, turned into a life and death struggle among the thousands in attendance fleeing for cover from an onslaught of gunfire from unknown assailants around 8:45 P.M., July 22, 2009 on the campus of the University. Six people were wounded ages 14 to 21 and were transported to the local hospital, and according to sources, the gunmen, I prefer the word” urban terrorist” fired into the crowd of parents, children, and babies who were attending a concert headlined by rapper” Trae the Truth” just as the concert had ended and the people were leaving. School supplies and medical service were offered at the program for the upcoming school year.

There’s no doubt in my mind, the cowardly attackers were not members of the KKK or any hate groups motivated by racial persuasions, these were sick young punks who obviously had no problem firing into a crowd of unarmed people to make them feel like brave men. I hope these high school dropouts don’t have children to pass weak genes on to innocent babies, because we have enough idiots among us already.

Elected officials were in attendance, which included Congresswoman Shelia Jackson Lee. I pray the Congresswoman by law change the word “gang” to “urban terrorist”, and make such attacks on any school campus punishable by life in prison, and in case of death, the terrorist receive death by firing squad. Citizens are sick and tired of being victims of violent crime and the criminals when apprehended receive mercy and consideration from the courts. Citizens demand extreme justice, for extreme violence resulting in death. Where’s the dignity in dying at the hands of murderers, who don’t mind going to prison. That’s home to them until bleeding hearts release them again out of mercy for them to continue to do what they do, kill. Our way of life is in jeopardy from those who look like us. Out of here.
