Teens Charged with Murder

[ryancr2k12]

When she says, "involving two groups of students from different neighborhoods", she means gangs. Gangs have ruined this country. They need to be stopped before this happens again.

[MissDestinii]

Yawl shouldnt be threatning eachother!! A lil fight can turn into a BIG DEATH.!

[MissDestinii]

Man this world is no joke! Instead of thinking what would happen to the 16 yr old boy.! They thought on what would happen to them.! i Cried when i saw this.!! :(

[bonezillion]

@wt3moore1 Are you trying to prove something? Because saying that shit doesn't make your race look any better. If white people say anything about black people it's that they're aggressive and deviant, you're proving that point by saying you're going make people feel uncomfortable and more than likely beat them up. How does that make you look good?

Ignorant people.

[wt3moore1]

[BUDDYSHADOW]

[3velin1]

[SCHIZOPHRENlC]

Well, they obviously deserve life in prison. Those kids are literally monkeys. Look at them whack around those sticks. They even put monkey toys at his memorial. Fucking animals.

[TheKya1991]

@SCHIZOPHRENlC You sound very unintelligent..Bad grammer and all..Monkeys? Waste of space? No murderers, deserve life in prison, yes! You're an idiot. White people always are the first to spill out racists comments..R.I.P. to these young teens..

[SCHIZOPHRENlC]

@TheKya1991 What a fucking pussy, another black kid supporting other blacks. Why? Because of slavery? GET OVER IT, YOU DIDN'T EVEN EXIST THEN.

[TheKya1991]

@SCHIZOPHRENlC I never said i supported these fools, i said you're an ignorant racists internet thug that will never say it to black people's face...PUSSY

[SCHIZOPHRENlC]

@TheKya1991 Cool story bro, read a book.

[helpdan]

See u dont get the full story

what u gotta think is waht that nigga do to make thoes nukkas mad?

maby the doode had it comming to him u dont kno

[sgrg8tnow]

@helpdan - If you think murder is the answer, than you're just another mindless savage with an I.Q. of no more than 70.

[AcmeJerkz]

@helpdan dude he was just walking to his bus and they shouldn't be fighting in front of a school n e ways they go back to there neighborhood and leave the city alone

[Sassyone08]

this is horrible and sad. those kids that did this need to be punished by the law and to the fullest extent.

[marioredisi]

ya it was sad i went to that school and ya that school was ghetto and he was innocent r.i.p derrion!

[1AmN0tACr00k]

Thats what happens in a "gang" fight annybody in the area of the fight gets beat it's sad i myself was in a gang when i was younger. I know that they say he was not in the gang but thats how it is it's a bad situation and all.

[TheGameCrasher]

fuck!

[TheGameCrasher]

@TheGameCrasher FUCKING NO LIFE SCUMBAGS!!!! IM FUCKING TIRED OF THE WANNABE GANGSTERS AND RENEGADE AFROS THAT THINK THEY HAVE SOMETHING TO PROVE!

FUCKING DIE, HE WAS A INOCENT PERSON AND HE DIED BECAUSE OF THIS SHIT!

[Hondalad19]

it was his fault from the beggining poor dude but thas what happens when u try to act tough.

[rushindulen]

i blame rap music and the families.

[LilBro1127]

naw real talk i saw the whole video, derrion was walkin ta the store ,then he swung on one guy for no reason!,exactly 1 sec after that, they wackd derrion becuz they saw him swing, and thats how it happnd, but still dats fukd up ,aniway RIP

[sukyca]

The actions of those kids are the result of the education they get in their family, in their school and in their community. Is charging those kids as criminal the best option?

[aevong]

believe it or not but i watched the full video and the kid actually brought himself to his death. how? because in the full video he actually was seen punching someone else RIGHT BEFORE he was first hit in the head with that piece of wood. he could of just ran off

[ILoveMyBaby32609]

Your a homo the kid tried to stop it and then deffended himself. You must be one of trh pussys that needs more the 5 kids and weapons to beat some one up. This kid did nothing wrong he just got unlucky. And whether he hit some one or not did he deserve to lose his life huh? Think that before you run your mouth.

[aevong]

no he didnt deserve to die but he could of ran away like i said he punched some one right before he was hit. oh yeah and my leadership teacher told us this. p.s it is unnecessary to call me a homo

[ILoveMyBaby32609]

no he didnt and he was defending himself. wouldnt you atleast try and protect urself.

and ps it is when u deserve it.

[XtremeSporting1]

what a horrible tragedy

[howie1962]

where is Jesse Jackson

Where is Rev Al Sharpton

ans: they don't give a shit

[LA504killa]

Gangs are 4 p-ssy ass clowns!!! They need 2 fry all who had something 2 do with it!!! Chi town!! There are no guns or sticks in jail!!! R.I.P LIL D!!!

[stankaboutit]

I hope those killers and gang members feel the same pain he felt in that attack for the rest of their life. Hopefully they die a similar death. Cockroach's have more character and common sense than those killers, F them and the ground they walk on. RIP Mr. Derrion.

[dimedropper1992]

Derrion was too good for the world anyways......

looks like God wanted a person to chill with

[eagletwentythree]

how can something like this happen? where is the leadership? But you don't post a video of some kid being killed on youtube. show some respect- think in his family members' prespective

[classic14rider]

A black male with a book would be safer at a Klan rally than he would be with a group of his peers.

Black "leadership" has failed the black community and fails to address this issue.

Government at all levels fails to protect American citizens, especially if they happen to be young black males and people who live in low-income neighborhoods.

[birdman445566]

The black youth as a whole is a disgrace to this country. I live in chicago and these are the kind of animals that have no respect for life and do not deserve to live

[flywithvicky]

i'd like to see a video of these tough "gangstas" crying like little babies as they are arrested and put into jail. follow that up with a video of them receiving their sentence.

[venus3003]

He was indeed trying to help his "friend". But when the gang attacked derrion his "friend" turned and ran like a scared little coward.

[NoName1325]

that is one ghetto school

[ashmo27]

I totally agree meloayness, I am glad history was brought up bc this is key in many of the inner-city problems. What can Obama do? He's the first black president of the US and people are still acting up. He can't show favortism towards Chi-town, then we'd complain about that. Single parent homes, cultures, communities, and lack of resources dispersed to these areas all over the world keep this cycle going on and on. We are all responsible, so what will we do?

[MelOAyness]

Analogously, we, the elders are like farmers and kids like those killers are our crop. Even if the crop was nurtured and weeded, attended to in every way, you can't grow shit in bad soil.

Years ago, our politicians sold us out. They outsourced our jobs, put us in ghettos and generally neglected us while year in and year out, they continued to establish classes of people, distinctions between those who have and those who have not. Systemic violence is a societal problem that has now blossomed.

[paconot]

I would like to add that the problem is the CULTURE! My daughter was momentarily attending a predominately black school and when the realized she was a good student, made fun of her. This only made her "hate" black attitudes and that is sad to not appreciate your own people. I have encouraged her to not stereotype people but her new school just blocks down the street in the hood is a blue ribbon school (mostly white), how can you counter that perception. Tell me something different???

[Jesvel18]

this is not cool man..he was so young. honors..whoa..cool kid....smart kid.....and those stupid kids did a fukin bad decison. i hope they get them jailed...or punish them super hard....it's really stupid when the younger teenagers start fights for nothing..see them all the time in my school...violence isn't the frikin solution....HOPE EVERYTHING CLEARS UP..AND THE REAL RESPONSIBLE ONES ARE CAUGHT SO DERRION CAN R.I.P.

[DemSkillz2k9]

around my way we wouldnt let kno one get beat up like that we would have stop tha fight regardless if we knew him or not it pisses me off seeing all those people just standing there lookin stupid knowing if it was them they would of wanted someone to help them im not gon let someone get beat up like that i would of bust some shots in tha air i bet it would of stop all that fightin

[cantbefooled]

1:30 ... We come praying the highest prayer?

Man, its not time to pray! Its time to punish, Eccles - 3:3.

I'm sick of soft responses. I want them to be put to sleep, like sick dogs with "nitro injection" after their proven guilty. When they pay with their life, for this crime "then" i'll agree to say a (cute) prayer.

But in the mean time the consequence for killing our kids must come. And the consequence I prefer for attacking innocent children is to make them stop ..... breathing.

[cantbefooled]

I have a question, where's Al Sharpton?

I'm a black guy and I want these cowards to get it. They're lucky I wasn't there I would have litterally whipped em, with a belt or pipe. These dumb boys apparantly never got that and as a result this is what it leads to. If I ever see someone do this, I will KO'em them on the spot. These skunk wannabe tuff guys could not withstand what i'll put on their behinds. I'm not just saying that I have retaliated, in school and guess what, it WORKED!

[jjtiojohn12]

No wheres OBAMA! that is his city!

[redmarquez]

police wont protect you they just clock in and clock out so do teachrs notice no teachers broke it up cuz its not there job they should get at least life i mean one guy was jumping on his head after it was busted open thats a intention to kill its just sad that no one helped the poor guy i saw some guys tryn though but there were lots of people including the asshole who was recording it and his ass should get life to so pleez stop gloryfing this ignorance

[redmarquez]

if the police said he was innocent then whyd the bitch ask man damn that aint cool

[zamar4ever]

I'm so sick and tired of hearing about things like this! I'm tired of everyone (police, school officials, communities, churches, community organizations, etc.) reacting instead of preventing. When will we (adults) take responsibility? When will parents start spending quality time with their children instead of letting MTV, VH1, BET, and the streets raise them? How do we truly help our youth? I'm all ears and willing to get involved if someone would provide me with some information.

[PopCulture20]

speaking of MTV, VH1 & BET, they need to temporarily cancel these idiotic reality shows and use those networks to speak out to young people about preventing crime because those networks aren't doing shit as of lately to make a difference

[dsjj251]

that should be directed tto more than those 3 networks

[Sassyone08]

@zamar4ever the information to help is out there you can search on the web or look in your local paper for that. volunteers are always needed at the library to help people learn to read and to write. there is alot that one person can do, change starts within. RIP to Derrion though I never knew this young man before this incident happened.

[gametight10]

@zamar4ever parents have to first care about spending time with their kids to prevent things like this

[haloriver]

@zamar4ever i smell a democrat but you have a very good point

[diodoro73]

he may have thrown a punch but we dont know what may have happened before the cameras came on - if dont understand the paradigm ur making isolated judgements - what we saw here is pure rage - the same type of rage most of u r using to curse eachother out on this page and pages like this one - turn the cameras on urselves - T.Thomas reporting from Brooklyn

[diodoro73]

did he make a bad choice by walking into the mele? yes - and he paid dearly- but when ur in the hood and weakness is equated with nonexitence - u will make choices which will compensate for what u think u lack in other areas of social acceptance - girl wont even talk to u if they think ur a lama - its not like being a geek on wall st., where noone emphasizes bravado on the phyical level -there is a different set of rules here and it seems as if some of u don't realize this -

[diodoro73]

a good portion of posters here obviously don't understand anything about the hood or its workings - u can't be a gang member and have perfect attendance - much less be an honor student - when ur in a gang, cuttin' school is a basic requirement - if ur hangin with ur gang all day, when r u goin to find time to study? - in any hood its a struggle between righteousness and hypermasculinity ;or a balance between the two -

[SidneySelT]

Everyone in your family up to the first cousins on your mother and father side of the family should be eliminated (including grandparents too). The ancient Chinese had it right in getting rid of bad blood and their relatives. How ignorant and cockroach-ish can your thinking get. You need to have your skin peeled and dunked in lemon juice before you're executed by the same gang members. STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!

[Armyscout1979]

ha! your right, he did throw a punch before he got beat to death. Should have kept his hands to himself, it doesnt take an honor student to see that

[fleaescher1]

So you are equating the fact that he may have thrown a punch with the fact that he got beaten down until he could not stand up then died from his injuries? Then you make the snide comment concerning the fact he was an honor student ? And you seem to be proud of this. You make me physically ill.

[lucaslucaslucas3]

INNOCENT BYSTANDER? Look closer... he throws a left handed punch at the person escaping a beating from behind the white car, just before getting hit in the head with that railroad tie (not a 2x4). He was involved and lost his life for it.

[nba2020]

exactly, again.

[ashmo27]

There's violence all around the world from every represented cultural race. We all make our own choices.I am 27 black from chicago. I moved to Arkansas where blacks are treated like animals, never have I have retaliated, acted out, or hated my attackers. I love every race and I choose to; I have 3 degrees and so does my husband who's from Chicago and we are good christian, nonviolent people and this has nothing to do with our race. Deviant behavior is not related to race. Let's get educated!

[nba2020]

exactly. education..

however it begins with the parents instilling it within the kids.

[paconot]

MOST RELEVANT RESPONSE YET!!!!!

[nba2020]

why do people keep saying hes innocent, and that he was 'just' walking to the bus stop? who just 'walks' to the bus stop through a mob? look carefully, he is PART of the violence and takes a swing at someone just before getting hit. Nothing against the guy, or anyone, but is the media trying to tell us something different, because what is in the video tells us other wise. And why the continuous mentiniong of 'honor student'? Something is fishy in the reporting of this.

[newtcummer1]

you are one of the chimpanzees involved in the murder. And yes you too deserve the death penalty for crimes against humanity. You can see in the video he is defending himself from the sudden attack on not him but his buddy and everyone else around him. You are stupid and shouldn't comment on anything except youre own funeral.

[nba2020]

very smart. i cant question anything, or is everything they convey on tv a cold hard fact? hes defending himself? he voluntarily chose to walk into the mob, otherwise he would have walked in the OTHER direction. but wait let me guess, he was walking to the bust stop- through a violent mob? again, im not questioning him, cause he was a kid. im talking about what hes being made out to be. btw, ur mother deserves the death penalty for her crime against humanity in giving birth to u.

[newtcummer1]

Curse from the lord above be upon you.

Creator forgive me. May you choke on your idioticy and expire.

[nba2020]

anyways stupid, youre obviously weird. but anyways wow...asking god to curse me eh? lol...

[lucaslucaslucas3]

Good call nba2020, he was part of it. See my post for details.

[crzpoo]

Im with ya nba2020. This is a manufactured incident to create even more division and confusion. He took a swing at someone who barely escaped with his own life after being pummeled behind that car. I want to know who this mysterious white kid was that just darted by in a flash. I would think he would say his part about the whole thing but no mention of it. I think that if someone survived something like that they would want to tell there story.

[lwsjyege]

It's not the boys fault. We need much more strict wood control!!

Please pass more wood control Laws NOW!!

[ashmo27]

Death by violence is not funny. You should sympathize, bc it could have been you or someone you know. Life's not a joke.

[howie1962]

this is the great challenge of the US educational system. Black people must learn to BEHAVE THEMSELVES!!

Is this America or Africa?

[dsjj251]

racist pig

[howie1962]

bullshit. this is a wild pac of monkeys

this is called birth control in the hood

I'm sure u is proud of these peoples

send them back to the jungle or put them in the army. Chicago is not a war zone

we can't allow this type of African culture to persist

[dsjj251]

fuck you, you are a racist pig and everyone knows it

[howie1962]

listen fool, u is a students

the most important lesson u must learn is: BLACK PEOPLES HAVE TO LEARNS TO BEHAVE THEMSELVES!!!!!!!

[dsjj251]

well im black and i behave myself.

your dumb ass is the one who needs to behave him/her self

[howie1962]

when was the last time one of the brothers hit u in the head with a 2x4

don't use b dissin me

[ashmo27]

Hey it's very important that you educate your self on human behavior period bc there are violent individuals in every culture. If we all wanted to we could go down the list of all the stereotypical violent behaviors in every race. It is no one's fault but the individuals who killed him and the lack of inner-city community support. If you do your research you would see that inner-city kids of all races are prone to violence.

[ashmo27]

Accept this whoever didn't like my comment.I am from Southside Chicago I know personally,and unless we stop making excuses,shifting blame,being predjudice,this will never end.Someone dies every day in these cities,many have become numb bc this is the norm.WAKE UP AMERICA this is our problem,our children, and our communities.How many deadly school shootings, postal shootings, etc... have been African American individuals? White, Black, Hispanic, Asian-all violent,crazy, and poor choice makers.
