man this video right here kinda opened my eyes alot....man when vernon died (one of my fav fighters) that had me buggin out. i saw this video and remembered all over again, that this world aint shit....and to keep strapped up for protection....dame this was in 09...this gotta be one of the realest shit u ever wrote...bloodtalk
argument. At first glimse you seem to have a valid point, but the more I think about it, it sounds more of an argument
blaming the vicitm for his own death. It's
irrelevant what Vernon should or shouldn't
have done. The fact remain that three sorry ass pitty criminal decided to rob and
kill him. Even when Vernon gave up and turned away, they still shot him 8 times in the back. Vernon is not in any way responsible for the criminals' decision.
At about 11:00 pm EDT on July 26th 2009, Forrest stopped at a gas station in the Atlanta neighborhood of Mechanicsville....With him was his 11-year-old godson. As the boy went inside the gas station, Forrest went to the back of his car to add air to a low tire. As this occurred, a man robbed him at gunpoint and fled. Forrest, who was armed, went after the man and shots were exchanged. After a short distance, Forrest gave up the chase and began walking back to the gas station....(cont.)
(cont.) It was then that the man shot Forrest seven to eight times in the back. According to police, the shooter and a second person left the scene in a red Monte Carlo.Forrest was pronounced dead at the scene and the death was ruled a homicide......R.I.P my nigga
can't imagine thing like this happening to our ring idols,most fans see them as warriors and super humans, ones they lose some fans call them bums, this one put into perspective how vulnerable everyone is in fights and on the street. RIP champ , you lived by the fist, you didn't deserve to die by the gun...
I would do anything to stop somebody hurting a family member etc. It's all well for people to say violence doesn't solve anything but when you're getting shot at you have to look after the ones you love. You have a right to live. Nobody has the right to try and take that from you! Thanks for your thoughts bro
God and us all know who had all the honor in the world and who was the coward with no heart, no morals, nothing...absolutely nothing...this is the kind of thing that would happen in a movie but your right bro..people need to wake up and work out why this is happening. It's shocking. There was no need to go back and shoot a man in the back after they wronged him in already. I find it hard to say I hate somebody but I hate them so much.
Forrest did have a gun on him, which is why he was killed. After he got robbed, he ran after his assailants shooting. Then, they shot him in the back when he was coming back 2 his car. He'd be alive had he not fired back. Most robbers just want your $, not your life. Ego got in the way, man was killed. It's sad, but that's the truth. Still, as long as guns exist, everyone should have them - that's just a balance of power. Anyone who disagrees is either on govt's payroll or plain ignorant.
Yeah dawidziwsko, like I said, he made a mistake by going after the robbers. But it's though to be in a scenario like that. A year ago some punks were trying to break into my sister's home(she used to live in front of my house) She called me & I grabbed my M4. I didnt have to fire or kill them. Just by seeing the rifle & yelling at them to get the F.out was enough to have them running like bitches. I probably saved the live of my sister that day without even killing anyone. Guns do save lives.
I do respectfuly think that Vernon shouldn't have gone after the criminals like they're saying he did. Even if he killed this guys & was able to escape alive, he would've been in a lot of trouble & possibly accused of murder. That is the cops job to chase the criminals & bring them to justice, not a civilians job.
He was not supposed to chase them like that & only shoot if in immediate death danger. Thats very sad & I know he was just probably doing what he tought it was best at the moment.
And you are wrong by refering to me as "its people with your kind of attitude that creates the environment you currently live in", because you are pointing your finger & blaming the wrong person. We gun owners don't go out & rob our neighboors, or the eldery, or go rob a bank. It's the criminals who does that type of pathetic shit without having any type of remorse. They are the ones who create the fear, paranoia,etc. People like me defend ourselves against people like that who we call criminals
Like under normal circunstances I would not shoot a guy trying to steal the tools from my garage. But in the other hand if that same guy is trying to brake into my home, I would tell him to get down in the floor & I would call the cops. But if that guy threats me or makes me feel like my live is in danger he will be meeting with Lucifer eye to eye within a few seconds & a few pulls of the trigger. Does that make me a bad person? NO. Does that makes me paranoid? NO Does that makes me a coward? NO
Only fools think they can out power a criminal with a gun with their bare hands. Life is precious man, and if you are not ready to defend it, you would lose it in a few seconds & die like a fool.
Good luck to you.
P.S.
Not havinga gun does not make you a fool or a coward, but it does make you an easy prey of crime and a defenseless victim. If you wanna play Bruce Lee on an armed robery & think you are in the Matrix, go ahead, knock yourself out. Again, good luck with that. Peace.
I would not attempt to overpower a gun man if i was being robbed. Im not that stupid. Im also wouldnt be stupid enough to whip out my own pistol and play russian roullete with my life over a wallet or any other material possesions.
If she would've been smarter & was carrying a gun, she would've save her own life that night & would've probably saved many others by sending that bastard straight to hell, like the fellow of this video here says. The cementary is full of brave men, I refuse to be just brave & rather be brave, causious & prepared.
That would never happen here in the US. We the People would fight back if the goverment tries to take away our guns. That's a fact. This is a complicated issue and it's way off topic from this video. But to make long story short, a person with common sense knows how to defend himself and his family from thugs & that's done by having a gun.
The news will only tell you of the accidents and crimes comited with a gun, but they wont tell you the many times a gun saves lives.
"Guns save lives"......lol are you serious? Thats the problem with your country. You live in a constant state of fear and paranoia that you think owning a gun will solve your problems. Your country needs to get to the root of your problems rather than trying to quick fix them by saying "just shoot them".
Well like I said before, Im almost certain if Vernon wasnt strapped, he'd be alive today.
Btw.......I never said that banning guns was the ultimate answer. I just take objection to you labelling my country "cowardly" for having the intent to create a safer society. Whether it works or not is debateable, we still have multiple incidents of stabbings here.
However, its people with your kind of attitude - as if a gun is an extension on your cock - that creates the environment you currently live in. Fear, paranoia, kill or be killed. Its quite a sad outlook.
Well, maybe I was a little harsh by saying your country men cowardly surrendered their guns. I apologize for that.
Look, I have many many guns and I got to tell you, when you become a gun owner (and 99.9% of cases) you become a more responsable person & citizen. You are always making sure you obey the law, that everything is good, because you do not want to lose the right to keep & bear arms for some stupid decision or whatever & you know the big responsability you have in your hands.
I enjoy your boxing videos but I dont agree with what you say about guns blood.
If everyone carrys guns you will have more shootings, its that simple.
In the UK you cannot legally have one, therefore there is very little gun crime. If we had gun laws like the US my hometown of Nottingham would turn into the wild fucking west!
Surely the US people should vote against having guns?
Shut up roonaljoe. We don't need a guy from the UK to tell us here in the US to vote against guns, like your coward country people did when they surrendered all their guns to the goverment. Then afterwards they realized how cowards they were & they started crying & begging to get them back, lol. Pathetic.
That would never happen here in the US. People here are smarter than that to surrender their guns. That's the only thing keeping the goverment from turning into full scale tiranny,OUR GUNS!
Wow.....you think people without guns are cowards? Thats the main problem with your society........a piece of metal with some bullets doesnt make you a man.
No, no DirkDigler, no. I do not think that people without guns are cowards. You got it all wrong. What I meant was that in that particular case, of the UK banning guns and taking them away from the people, leaving them defenseles, that it was a wrong thing to do. But that it was the people's fault because they were who cowardly gave up their right to have guns by vountarly walking to their goverment and handing their guns over & giving up their rights without a fight.
Im sorry but you are wrong. People like you are the ones that make the crime victims statistics and always end up dead, victims of rape, victims of robery, victims of murder, ect.
You remind me to that famous lady in the UK who was a big advocate against guns and very pro gun laws. She opposed to the right of the people there to have guns and she was ironically murdered in an alley one night, stabbed to death.
@IsThatYouAgain... My coward country as you put it has soldiers dying everyday in Afghanistan & Iraq because we follow your dumb ass. We were not told to surrender our guns as you put it, we had a gun amnesty! I would say people who handed their guns in showed courage to look to build a better society, I dont see that as cowardly.I understand you feel safer with a gun. But that is because any 2 bit scumbag can own 1 and rob you. If you were not allowed guns there would be less gun crime...fact!
This is the land of the beast bro....we need a gun for our protection over here....other people already have guns so those that need to protect they family need one....
I understand the US is way down the line with guns, and no one would hand them in because its a culture thing too. My point was that we are better off for not allowing Joe public to own guns in the UK. If we did Im sure gun crime would rise 90%.
I understand your points because the world is turning to shit and young people show no respect nowadays. Its all down to education and its not the kids fault, the system has failed most of them.
Hey, Im against that stupid war since the beggining. It's not my war, it's the politicians who decided go to war along with the dumbass George Bush. Now Obama is supporting the war sending more troops but says he will withdraw from there, which makes no sense saying one thing & doing another(the opposite).
Back to the guns issue, is clear that the ex-gun-owners there specifically which I wrongly refered earlier as "you country people"(which I apologize), surrendered their guns voluntarily, but not 100% voluntarily because in a way they were forced by the goverment by enforcing a time period/limit for people to surrender their guns.
Then after they surrendered their guns, they realized how stupid that was and started marching and protesting to the goverment that they wanted their guns back, after they were already collected and many of them destroyed, lol. That's very sad, I feel sorry for them for having lost/surrender that very important right. It was all over the news. We know what's going on and what happened. And most of them did it because they had no choice, not because they wanted to build a better society.
That is nothing but a fairytale. This world will never change as long as humans exist. Evil has been around us since the beggining of our existance and will never change. Only folish people think that we can all live a happy, childish innocent, pure goodness, utopia world,lol.
People like you needs to wake up to reality. There are bad people out there willing to rape you, rape your family, kill you, rob you and many horrible things and unless you are prepared to deal with it you are nothing but a victim waititng to be prey of crime. Off course that's just my opinion. Good luck. Peace.
Are you a rape victim? Just wondering as you keep bringing it up? I guess it would explain your outlook, I would kinda sympathise with you there.
No, such a world will never exist. However Id prefer to live a society that has the aim of at least trying to achieve that. Not one that just says "fuck it, lets just shoot them". Id rather get to the route of the problem rather than turn a blind eye and live in constant fear of being a victim.
No Dirk, I've never been raped, lol. Not that it's a funny thing, but it's funny the way your asking, lol. No, I have no fear of being robbed or have somebody braking into my home. Why? Because whoever tries is pretty much done. I dont live in fear or in a paranoid state thinking I am gonna be assaulted at any minute. In the contrary, I feel pretty safe & secure knowing that I can take care of things & defend myself & my family if anything happens. Is not an ego thing, is a safety matter.
@roonaljoe We have the right to bear arms in the USA to protect ourselves against tyrannical government. It is more important now than ever. Outlawing guns means only outlaws have guns. The government is corrupt. You can't rely on authority, they don't care and half the time are the ones trying to screw you over.
I cant believe it...I was waiting for a great fight against Sergio Martinez. Two great champions have gone in just a few weeks, dark times for boxing.
I think athletes would be better suited to hire security rather than packin' heat. It might be a bit of a nuisance but its just getting to be too dangerous for these guys. Especially in these tough times.....broke people are targetting celebs. I'm not so sure Vernon was targetted because of his name, but his fancy car is definitely what drew the attention from these cowards. RIP Vernon. One of my favorite fighters ever. You'll never be forgotten.
I have to disagree a bit. Now that more details have been released, it has become more clear that Vernon might have been OK if he didn't pursue the robbers and exchange fire with them. I also have my personal beliefs about gun laws, I believe less people would be shot if thugs can't get guns so easily. Regardless, it's heartbreaking he was gunned down in his hometown, a place where he should have been a hero in easier times. But instead of being celebrated, he was attacked for his hard earnings.
yo man, this reminds me of a saying that my mom told me: the cemetary is full of brave men. i will tell you this man, people are fucking going mad. what is wrong with this planet. to bad i live in california and here only the bad guys have guns (to include the cops). RIP Vernon, you are a great champion.
I hear you bro, people need to be armed these days. Support the 2nd amendment right when it comes election day & voting day on issues that endanger our right to self defense & have arms. I have 2 handguns(9mm), 3 shotguns, an assault rifle(AR-15 M4- I used to have 4 but I had to sell 3 of them recently), and a few other guns with a lot of ammo stocked.
It's ironic that the people who would call you paranoid for having guns are the ones who end up burried 6 feet under & victims crime.
I hear you gonzo. California has very strict (ridiculously anti-constitutional)gun laws. That is one of the states that uses the Constitution's 2nd Amendment to wipe it's ass & blow its nose. So sad, because that is a very beautiful place.
Who would think that by making gun laws and restriction, that it would lower crime? Ohh yeah, that's right; politicians, lol. Like if criminals give a shit about laws in the first place. Only the law abidient citizen gets affected by those Nazi gunlaws, IMO
It says that Vernon Forrest had a gun, he chased the guy and they exchanged shots. He probably thought that guy has people so he came back to gas station. He didn't know that the guy came back then he got killed! So sad!
Twitter post by Vernon Forrest days before he was murdered Man I had a nightmare last nite I dreamt I come home and found 4 guys were breaking into my house. I pull my heater and it was empty they chased me and was about to shot me then I woke up. The first thing I did was get my heater and made sure it was loaded. That dream will not come true.
wudup blood,damn i just heard about this.shit iz crazy out here.its sad to see something like this happen to this man cuz i respected the man.rip forrest oooonnnnneeeeeee
some people act like protecting your selfe family and your goods is a bad thing. i just look at these people funny owning a gun is not a bad thing. Vernon just got caught on the way back he is not the first guy to have this happen to them. its most of these brain wash fake christian they act like the bible tells them you cant defend you selfe or your family form killers or these nutjob liberals who believe in this lets live in a happy world and hold hands its not going to happen.
he who lives by the sword..???wtf??everybody has the right to defend what is his.if u dont understand that ,then ur not a man. what would u say if someone tries to rape your daughter???? talk to him??? there is a time to kill boy. a time to fight. a time where u have the right to take that sword
i could not believe when i heard about this at work i immediately thought of him dropping shane mosley and heard of him fighting a tune up to get his rightful belt back against martinez,he wouldv whip,d him...this is terribble,he had a lot to live 4 and now im just speechless ...rip vernon,the olypian,the unrecognizable talent that he was,the father and the man. condolences 2 his friends and family...may god bless you and him.
I feel what you are saying, but there are people out there that wil kill you. I couldn' t give a damn about myself, but I need the heat to protect my friends , family, and other law abiding citizens. However I'm still thinking about what you say. Eyeballs and a gun might help but really only God can save us.
What a great vdeo! Blood, ur right dude. Its all fucked up now. On every level. Its filtering thru to all ages, races, the rich, the poor, everyone. Its not gettin better either. Everyone is jus surviving, one way or another. Or trying, at lest. Its gettin desperate now bro.
Most people only give a fuck about money, that's the fucked up world we live in! Money is their god, greed is in their hearts. Vernon cared about people who were sick and disabled, read about his work! God bless his family and may they forever be proud of the person he was in and out of the ring. He beat mosley twice when Mosley was the p4p best, RIP CHAMP.
your right but it will save you from geting killed. these killers dont give a fuck they will kill you and laugh while they are doing it. you have no idea how it is man i have been almost car jack 2 times it is not a good feeling one day i might not be so lucky .thats why i carry a gun now to stop some nutjob from taking whats my and my life
My friend and I were talking about this shit today man. This Depression is making people crazy. Two of my closest boys just got robbed in San Francisco this past weekend. Thank God these thugs didn't decide to shoot em. I'm getting myself a Glock. Great Vid Blood. RIP
Vernon had a boxing style similar to Nate Campbell a real street two punch gangster lean boxing type offense that resembled a corner street scrap with blow's that are thrown with a conviction! and yet these warrior's of the old school era are never really mentioned but quickly are missed when gone
Wow i was just looking up hiz career on youtube lazt week wow thiz shit iz mind blowin fuck man i thought he was going to make a come back soon and now some scumbags killed him! thnx for putting me on blood...
Real nice guy he used to comin into the target I worked at in Stone Mountain... very nice guy... very very humble guy....its a shame what cowards do... come on man life is worth more than thus B.S. goin on
Man this month has been on some heartbreaking shit, first Arguello, then Gatti and now Vernon Forrest. Violence and robbing doesnt solve anything. Its a shame when a good person like Vernon Forrest gets gunned down for nothing. These are some hard times; RIP Vernon Forrest, You will be forever a champion
your not thugging it your just keep in it real brother i got my ak with some holo tips to give these thug some first class tickets to the resurrection rip vernon forest you will be missed great champ
Muther Fuckas die everyday. Some good..some bad..The f@%d up part is McNair, Gatti, Forrest where catz who could have easily went left insteadof righ. They wanted better things and put their sweat, blood, and tears just to have a selfish, greedy, simple mided waste of space bitches kill them for their on satisfaction. As far as this country. Thank you George Bush. Thanks you for pissin and shittin on all of us. Thats why your ass got security for the next 6 years. We gonna be hurtin atleast 6
yo blood real talk i feel everything you say about niggas with records im an ex convict real talk i have 2 against me right now! no one would give me a job even whe thier was good jobs niggas wont gimmie one! i was at the bottum of the list if not throwin application into the garbage! we are set up when we make mistakes the political world dont like they want you to get jobs on parole niggas wont ive you one,they want you get ya g.e.d you have to go threw programs b4 you able to get in the shit!
Vernon was strapped w/ a gun....but the thugs had some semi-auto weapons man...I'm unemployed right now, but I ain't about to rob people for their sh*t...prayers go out to the vipers family...loved his post fight interview after he beat sergio mora...
I found out about this tragedy this morning. It's crap like this that makes me question life in general, and why I can't stand it. And because people who frankly shouldn't have even been created would be willing to kill people for what you have instead of being a winner and earning it, I don't trust anybody and this only proves why I don't. There has to be a hell somewhere for these shitheads who did this. R.I.P. Vernon Forrest. Can't even walk the streets anymore because of shitheads like this
this shit fucked up my head this morning man i couldnt believe what i was hearing ! whats next man like real talk this shit is getting out of hand! R.I.P VERNON FORREST we will miss you dearly in the boxing world!
hell yea. ima get me a strap as soon as i can. there sum real fucked upp ppl out there. cops aint gona protect u at the second u need it... its better 2 have one and not need one, than to need one and not have one
It's sad, a true warrior dies in the hands of cowards with weapons. Forrest was a true champ. His classic battles with Mosley are legendary. He also gave back to the community, supporting those less fortunate.
this is bad that all this killing is going on, in chicago they shot a pizza men just to take his food and a ups men was shot in the back when some young black males tried to rob him.great video blood
Yh amen to that blood. Boxing is losing good people in such tradgic events. Chico died in a motorbike crash, gatti strangled to death by a bitch and now vernon geting killed by the heartless. Whats next to come...

We know we all have to die some day--that's an undeniable fact of life. But a caring human being like Vernon doesn't

Your country needs to get to the root of your problems rather than trying to quick fix them by saying "just shoot them".
Well like I said before, Im almost certain if Vernon wasnt strapped, he'd be alive today.
DirkDigglerV3 2 years ago
Btw.......I never said that banning guns was the ultimate answer. I just take objection to you labelling my country "cowardly" for having the intent to create a safer society. Whether it works or not is debateable, we still have multiple incidents of stabbings here.
However, its people with your kind of attitude - as if a gun is an extension on your cock - that creates the environment you currently live in. Fear, paranoia, kill or be killed. Its quite a sad outlook.
DirkDigglerV3 2 years ago
Well, maybe I was a little harsh by saying your country men cowardly surrendered their guns. I apologize for that.
Look, I have many many guns and I got to tell you, when you become a gun owner (and 99.9% of cases) you become a more responsable person & citizen. You are always making sure you obey the law, that everything is good, because you do not want to lose the right to keep & bear arms for some stupid decision or whatever & you know the big responsability you have in your hands.

I enjoy your boxing videos but I dont agree with what you say about guns blood.
If everyone carrys guns you will have more shootings, its that simple.
In the UK you cannot legally have one, therefore there is very little gun crime. If we had gun laws like the US my hometown of Nottingham would turn into the wild fucking west!
Surely the US people should vote against having guns?

Shut up roonaljoe. We don't need a guy from the UK to tell us here in the US to vote against guns, like your coward country people did when they surrendered all their guns to the goverment. Then afterwards they realized how cowards they were & they started crying & begging to get them back, lol. Pathetic.
That would never happen here in the US. People here are smarter than that to surrender their guns. That's the only thing keeping the goverment from turning into full scale tiranny,OUR GUNS!

Wow.....you think people without guns are cowards? Thats the main problem with your society........a piece of metal with some bullets doesnt make you a man.
DirkDigglerV3 2 years ago
No, no DirkDigler, no. I do not think that people without guns are cowards. You got it all wrong. What I meant was that in that particular case, of the UK banning guns and taking them away from the people, leaving them defenseles, that it was a wrong thing to do. But that it was the people's fault because they were who cowardly gave up their right to have guns by vountarly walking to their goverment and handing their guns over & giving up their rights without a fight.

Defenceless? I dont need a gun to protect myself. Those who do are the real cowards.

Im sorry but you are wrong. People like you are the ones that make the crime victims statistics and always end up dead, victims of rape, victims of robery, victims of murder, ect.
You remind me to that famous lady in the UK who was a big advocate against guns and very pro gun laws. She opposed to the right of the people there to have guns and she was ironically murdered in an alley one night, stabbed to death.

@IsThatYouAgain... My coward country as you put it has soldiers dying everyday in Afghanistan & Iraq because we follow your dumb ass. We were not told to surrender our guns as you put it, we had a gun amnesty! I would say people who handed their guns in showed courage to look to build a better society, I dont see that as cowardly.I understand you feel safer with a gun. But that is because any 2 bit scumbag can own 1 and rob you. If you were not allowed guns there would be less gun crime...fact!

I understand the US is way down the line with guns, and no one would hand them in because its a culture thing too. My point was that we are better off for not allowing Joe public to own guns in the UK. If we did Im sure gun crime would rise 90%.
I understand your points because the world is turning to shit and young people show no respect nowadays. Its all down to education and its not the kids fault, the system has failed most of them.

Hey, Im against that stupid war since the beggining. It's not my war, it's the politicians who decided go to war along with the dumbass George Bush. Now Obama is supporting the war sending more troops but says he will withdraw from there, which makes no sense saying one thing & doing another(the opposite).
IsThatYouAgain 2 years ago
Back to the guns issue, is clear that the ex-gun-owners there specifically which I wrongly refered earlier as "you country people"(which I apologize), surrendered their guns voluntarily, but not 100% voluntarily because in a way they were forced by the goverment by enforcing a time period/limit for people to surrender their guns.
IsThatYouAgain 2 years ago
Then after they surrendered their guns, they realized how stupid that was and started marching and protesting to the goverment that they wanted their guns back, after they were already collected and many of them destroyed, lol. That's very sad, I feel sorry for them for having lost/surrender that very important right. It was all over the news. We know what's going on and what happened. And most of them did it because they had no choice, not because they wanted to build a better society.
IsThatYouAgain 2 years ago
That is nothing but a fairytale. This world will never change as long as humans exist. Evil has been around us since the beggining of our existance and will never change. Only folish people think that we can all live a happy, childish innocent, pure goodness, utopia world,lol.

People like you needs to wake up to reality. There are bad people out there willing to rape you, rape your family, kill you, rob you and many horrible things and unless you are prepared to deal with it you are nothing but a victim waititng to be prey of crime. Off course that's just my opinion. Good luck. Peace.
IsThatYouAgain 2 years ago
Are you a rape victim? Just wondering as you keep bringing it up? I guess it would explain your outlook, I would kinda sympathise with you there.
No, such a world will never exist. However Id prefer to live a society that has the aim of at least trying to achieve that. Not one that just says "fuck it, lets just shoot them". Id rather get to the route of the problem rather than turn a blind eye and live in constant fear of being a victim.
DirkDigglerV3 2 years ago
No Dirk, I've never been raped, lol. Not that it's a funny thing, but it's funny the way your asking, lol. No, I have no fear of being robbed or have somebody braking into my home. Why? Because whoever tries is pretty much done. I dont live in fear or in a paranoid state thinking I am gonna be assaulted at any minute. In the contrary, I feel pretty safe & secure knowing that I can take care of things & defend myself & my family if anything happens. Is not an ego thing, is a safety matter.
IsThatYouAgain 2 years ago
@roonaljoe We have the right to bear arms in the USA to protect ourselves against tyrannical government. It is more important now than ever. Outlawing guns means only outlaws have guns. The government is corrupt. You can't rely on authority, they don't care and half the time are the ones trying to screw you over.

I have to disagree a bit. Now that more details have been released, it has become more clear that Vernon might have been OK if he didn't pursue the robbers and exchange fire with them. I also have my personal beliefs about gun laws, I believe less people would be shot if thugs can't get guns so easily. Regardless, it's heartbreaking he was gunned down in his hometown, a place where he should have been a hero in easier times. But instead of being celebrated, he was attacked for his hard earnings.
