  • 12-year-old Jaylen Richard’s life was cut short on the streets of Baltimore City. His family says he was on house arrest for theft charges, but they say it’s all because he was hanging out with the wrong crowd.
    “They were still dragging my baby through the streets because they knew he couldn’t be charged,” his mother said.

      Maryland just legalized recreational use for marijuana and it won't make a difference regarding violent crime. That was their golden ticket to keep making profits. It's in their culture to poison their own community with fentanyl and other illicit drugs. It's also their culture to commit violent acts upon their neighbors and keep that cycle of criminal acts going. They are hopeless. You don't see many of these drug dealers moving out to better opportunities. They are addicted to that criminal element.

Their can’t be a man in the picture, at least not the father for them to get their checks and townhouses. I have family members who I watched rip apart mens lives and terrorize them just so they could put them on child support, get them locked up, and get a town house in the county. These are DEMONS, we are not speaking of human beings. They don’t even love their own children no matter what they say or how many pictures they post on Facebook, their children are simply pawns. That’s why these kids turn to the streets, they are bullied and harassed by their mothers all day long. They are pressured to pay bills from the time they are born.

      Guns are too easily available, especially for people who are most likely to use them for criminal activity. After living outside the US for a while, it's frightening to see the level of gun violence happening in a first-world country. Too many reforms would have to occur for the problem to quickly be resolved, but there needs to be some incentive to help the people in these areas prioritize education, discipline, and respect for the law.

      I think not only adding parental accountability but adding parental rights needs to happen. In my state a Mom and Dad can see their child needs counseling for anger management and the child can refuse treatment. What does a parent do when they need outside resources to help a child effect change? A parent can't use any form of corporal discipline, detain them at home (in the old days it was called restriction), insist on counseling or rehab. With so many kids without fathers parents need help because like it or not children need fathers.

    As someone who rip and ran the streets as a teen up into my late twenties, I used to see “recruitment” everyday. Those babies don’t know any better and a lot of parents don’t pay attention to their kids long enough to know what’s really happening. At the end of the day though, our city and the crimes committed won’t change until all this corruption in our local government and police departments is addressed and dismantled!

It's a hard task to turn them away from that which they wish to become. I know because I was one of those kids. It takes greater resources, manpower and TIME, than what's available to these kids.
