    very sad .... 30,000 children will die today in Sub-Saharan Africa of curable preventable diseases...

    What has that got to do with 2 scumbags killing a baby?

    Death sentence is too good for anybody that does something like this. But that brings you to their level....

    I wonder if this had happened in a smaller or third world country would there even be a story on sky about it

    It has nothing to do with two scumbags killing a baby but when's the last time you gave out or felt strongly about 30,00 babies dying in one day..

    Very sad news to see and even sadder to see posters using this to score points.

    You must not be very saddened by the actual event if you see posters point scoring as worse

    It may be racist to say it but i knew what colour they would be before i even opened the thread and i was right. The gangster couldn't give a **** culture among young black men has gone crazy.

    With a name like "Demarquis" black was a somewhat reasonable assumption.

    And I'd say we have the same "couldn't give a **** culture" among scumbags here. They're just not armed, but there are horrendous stories all the same.

    Violence among young black males in America and in some European cities is undeniable. Its a problems for those societies to address. They are way over represented in US prisons.

    The fact that I donate to charity means atleast I give a sh*t. How do you know how strongly I feel?
    A baby got shot by scumbags, Im outraged.
    30000 children die EVERYDAY, Im equally outraged!
    Whats wrong with people being shocked by this story that you need to bring up everything else thats wrong with the world.

    F*cking hell.

    The innocent little baby sent to heaven without having committed a single sin in this world, and the family left behind. Hard to get your head around it.

    Rest in peace little guy.

    I didn't even get as far as reading the name in the article. The thread title on boards was enough.

    The boy's father, Luis Santiago, told WAWS TV: "He was special ... He had the bluest, bluest eyes."

    I really believe for crimes like this the punishment should be the perpetrators being locked in a room with members of the victims family. With no repercussions legal or otherwise for what goes on in the room.

    ye but im not ranting on about the tragedy of it all...it bugs the sh+t of me all this false shock and rage when most people here will give out and then tuck themselves in to bed and think nothing more of it in the morning...
    Do you even think before you post seriously? A mother had to watch her baby being shot and you spout gibberish like so many other babies die every minute due to hunger and disease. Blame the governments of those countries for those atrocities but this case is very much an isolated one which was perpetrated by opportunistic thugs.
