The
wave of black on black shootings continues at a frightening pace that will not
abate
On
Thursday in what should have been a safe haven another black met a deadly fate
Not
on some corner contested by rival gangs to control the drug trade
But
at a college where the foundations of knowledge and future success are supposed
to be laid
Christopher
Sparks also known for his rap name Booley Boo was a junior at Savannah State
Heading
to the Student Union for probably coffee clueless that his death would await
Who
would ever thing that a Student Union on a college campus could be a killing
zone?
Sparks
was shot following an altercation with the killer whose identity is not yet
known
Small
condolences to his family and friends but at least this young man was not a
victim without a name or news face
Still
another black life blown away, killed most likely by another black masquerading
as a member of the civilized human race
