I think all you judgemental stupid fucks need to be respectful, Jose was a good kid. So if you have nothing nice to say, stay the fuck off here… His family doesn’t need this, they are grieving the lost of their loved one. And so am I. .. Thank you…

If I was “grieving the loss of a loved one” I certainly wouldn’t read the comments on the internet.

Tammy and Crystal – keep it classy.

Tammy Sep 28, 2017 - 8:52 am

You were the first one to judge something Nick… Something you know nothing about… shut your mouth and stop your rude ass comments. . All of you… Have some kind of heart. You heartless asshole….

Nick Sep 29, 2017 - 12:10 pm

Tammy – I’m entitled to my opinion. If you don’t like it, don’t read my comments. It’s not my fault this guy is dead, and you’re a bitch.

christy Sep 30, 2017 - 1:30 pm

hey nick yeah everyone has there own opinions, your right. and in my opinion this kid did not deserve to get shot, this kid you are talking about is family to Crystal, Tammy, and myself, and you are really talking someone down that you didn’t even know, the way I see it if you don’t have anything nice or respectful to say don’t say it, and tbh in my opinion Karma is a bitch, so your Karma will hit one day… and another opinion you are a straight lame for you to even get online and talk down someone elses family, best believe if it was your family you sure as the hell would not like it. and no tammy this nick don’t have no heart why do you think he is up here into everyone elses business, cause the way he is downing others he probably has no family himself cause he is a ignorant asshole, and just like they say opinions are like assholes everyone gots one. NOW HAVE A VERY NICE DAY NICK AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE WITH YOUR OPINIONS.. and thanks to everyone who is keeping friends and family in there prayers, and best believe they all need it at this time….

M. Soto Sep 28, 2017 - 1:44 pm

Well said Kimi Lyons! Praying for family and friends of this young man. So sorry. God bless you all.

Prayers and condolences to the family.

Tammy and Crystal – it’s all about the approach.

Tammy, don’t worry about the comments from the resident douchebags Nick and Melanie. They are always the first to make assumptions and tell you how you should be living. If cornered, the free speech card always comes out. I find their paranoid, anal angle amusing sometimes.
