[thoughts]

They get what they deserve.. I still don't understand how someone can just take someone else's life away THUG nasty is the only word for these 2 boys

[jloc]

RIP...these guys aing gangsters they r wangsters..wanna be gangsters...i said death penalty for both and save sum california dollars..

[The Shadow]

A bunch of wasted lives and an innocent young lady is gone. Where were the parents? Oh yeah there was maybe one of those since birth and they probably support the gang as so many of them do. Too bad these fellas won't be joining their compadres on the Row, buthere's to hoping they stay behind bars forever. Same type of sentence they gave the family of the girl they killed.

[Thugs in Training]

The Mothers of these 2 thugs said they were such good boys and are mis- understood, most of the time they would never shoot ayway, just beat and rob you or car jack you, but shooting someone, no my boys would never do that, and the fathers of these boys said I can't remember these boys because I have so many other kids and I am to busy selling dope

[Watcher]

I am always intrested to read in these unending stories where they got the guns to use. It is almost never mentioned but I am curios as to where this trail leads. Where did two 15 year olds get guns ?

[310 girl]

This is so terrible. If these boys did it, I hope that justice prevails and all of the people in the community sees this as a lesson that gangs and gang violence is so mindlessly barbaric. My heart goes out the family of the victim.

PLEASE SAVE YOUR COMMENTS UNTIL THEY ARE PROVEN GUILTY. Goes to show you people will believe anything they read. theres not one fact on here except that they are the suspects. but you all are sending them to prison and killing them for a crime they may be innocent of. people people people, we need to all take a deep breath and let our hopes be justice is served in finding the right killer.

Maybe we are reacting too soon. However, the facts remain the same these kids are all little time bombs waiting to go off. There is a saying "CHILDREN LEARN WHAT THEY LIVE" so are these kids victims of their parents? and are we to feel sorry for them. Even though you may not be taught right from wrong, you are born with a sense of human compassion. When your parents are nothing more than thugs themselves what do we expect from their children. And lets all be honest here. What is the biggest problem we have young males that have no sense of worth and think there is nothing out there for them but the gang life. BULLSHIT! it's easy money they do not have to work for, and when mom loves the necklace you have stolen from the neighbor, what does that say. And on top of that she wears it with pride. We need to do something about the sense of entitlement these kids seem to have. Stop being afraid of your kids and KICK THEIR ASS. The law says we cannot hit our children. That is not what it says. It says discipline your kids just don't beat them and cause visible injury. Why are we so afraid of the children we created. They all like to think they are "hard" but they all end up crying when they get caught. Are they scared of what will happen in jail. This is the feeling they give their victims. I am sick of it to where if your child is acting out in public and you just stand their I will yell at your kid. Obviously you are too scared to do something. God forbid we teach our kids how to be decent human beings. Put on a condom and stop making babies that I have to pay for. Get a real life! These boys, if guilty should be tried as adults and should receive life. The parents should also be held responsible. They allowed their kids out. Don't tell me that you don't know that your kid is in a gang. Your either very very stupid or you must be legally blind if you don't know what your kid is doing. Oh wait, I forgot you were the one driving the car that night. The parents of the guilty ones need to be face to face with the girls parents and look them in the eye and apologize for raising such idiots. You also need to be on public display saying how your kids are knuckleheads because of you.

Since when do "reputed gang members" wear pooka shells around their neck?

It is unrealistic for you to ask for the people to hold off on their thoughts re: this terrible loss of life of this beautiful young lady. There have been so many young children and babys who have lost their lives to gang bangers that the people are sick and tired of juvenile crime. The people are so mad right now that they want immediate justice for all of the victims, and if that means sending 16 yr. olds to prison for life, then so be it.

What you are hearing here is "FRUSTRATION" at it's maximum. There needs to be a release for that frustration and that is to voice what they want to happen "IF" these two boys are found guilty. And, we the people are entitled to that voice even if it sounds to you as over kill. But thank you for posting your thoughts anyway.

There is no justice when a teen girl in her Halloween costume get gunned down coming from a home coming event. There is no punishment that can equal their crime

retaliation to your anger, is to send whomever to jail? just so u can sleep at night? no. thats not justice. they have the right to a fair trial. it could have easily been my family member in the wrong place at the wrong time and been accused of this horrible crime. have a heart. stop being selfish and worrying about your frustrastion and how mad you are. imagine how these boys feel facing life in prison IF theyre innocent

It appears that YOUR anger is clouding your sight. No where in my post did I support not giving these boys a FAIR TRIAL. I am simply advocating a very strong punishment if they are found to be guilty. Is that not what you want also??? Relax some my friend and let the law take it's course.

When they started riding skateboards and trying to appear normal and innocent. Don't be fooled.

You need to stop talking. You're making yourself look very ignorant. Ever heard of GSR? This is something that stays on your clothes, skin, hair, etc.... If you werent the one shooting why do you have this on you. These kids were proven to be reputed gang members with a record. It is about time we start putting these little fuckers behind bars. If you want to act like your grown then you should be punished like an adult.
