Is so sad that life is so unfair...two lifes destroy by the night life..if both men would had been home this wouldn't had happen.Two young men finish...one dead and another going to prison for a long time...Paterson wake up!!! Mayor do something about the streets the gang, the night clubs,etc..people of Paterson get together and stop the violence..when is it going to stop!!! people can't even walk down the streets without fearing for their lifes..let do something for our children...we are losing them to the street life...open up some programs to get our kids off the streets....Good luck Paterson...I seen the same happen over and over ..Save our children!!!

The Mayor? It's everyone. PARENTS especially. No one under 18 should be out after 11. Earlier on school nights. That's the problem-the lack of family structure. Government can do so much but old fashion respect and order from the home makes a huge difference. Keeping kids of all ages active also helps. Y's, Boys and Girls Clubs , Pal, Recreation programs do that. Volunteers are needed if the city can't afford to do them and that's where good thinkers like you can help. Get to it!
