Tampa Police Shoot, Kill 16 Year Old Javon Neal in Tampa Heights

This story hits home for me considering I spent the majority of my childhood in this neighborhood and lost my friend Donald and couple other people I knew all from gun violence. Being a young black man in America every day is a challenge to survive.  There are so many more of us being killed out here in the streets of America than in military combat in Afghanistan to the point that it seems to be a genocide going on against black men in America. Let’s be real if it was young white men being murdered at this rapid pace they will consider it a national threat and they would be sure to explore all their resources to find a solution to the problem.
