Hi and
Sometimes it appears that we’re reaching a period when our senses and our minds will no longer respond to moderate stimulation.We seem to be reaching an “age of the gross”.Persuasion through speeches and books is too often discarded for disruptive demonstrations aimed at bludgeoning the unconvinced into action.The young-and by this I don’t mean by any stretch of the imagination all the young,but I’m talking about those who claim to speak for the young-at the zenith of physical power and sensitivity overwhelm themselves with drugs and artificial stimulants.Subtlety is lost and fine distinctions based on acute reasoning are carelessly ignored in a headlong jump to a predetermined conclusion.Life is visceral rather than intellectual and the most visceral practitioners of life are those who characterize themselves as intellectuals.Truth to them is revealed rather than logically proved and the principal infatuations of today revolve around the social sciences-those subjects which can accommodate any opinion and about which the most reckless conjecture cannot be discredited.The student now goes to college to proclaim rather than to learn.The lessons of the past are ignored and obliterated in a contemporary antagonism known as “the generation gap”.A spirit of national masochism prevails encouraged by an effete core of impudent snobs who characterize themselves as intellectuals.
Hi
This is all sad prayers to family members of victims and family of shooter ive been through this its difficult my family didnt live weather over drugs or girl or anything it makes no sense people are getting murdered just sitting on thier porch or walking down the street its sad
Y’all dont know him or what happened so it’s best to shut up . He’s not a bad kid at all actually so it was a reason. Mind your business 💯🗣
Pshhhhh.
Yeah and I’m the Pope.It’s all of Barberton’s business!! Fool!!!
Now be nice, we don’t want his friends who I’m sure are also “not bad kids at all” coming to “talk it out” and bring a gun and start shootin is all up…
So you are telling me it is OKay to shoot someone over a girl? I think I will just go shoot my ex’s new girlfriend. I hope the shooter gets some serious time AND anger management.
One of these Akron tuff guys is going to come across an ole hillbilly from Barberton and it might end in a good ole fashioned shootout.
I saw this happen first hand. In my opinion it was self defense. When 4-5 grown men attack a skinny 18 year old kid he wasn’t left with many options. Wish he wouldn’t have fire a gun so close to my house, but in his place I would have probably done the same. They were threatening him and ran across the street to attack him. People shouldn’t be so quick to judge.
I didn’t know they drove to his house with a gun.seems like intent.
This didn’t happen at either parties house. Did you even read the article? Or just jumping to conclusions?
I’m still coming up with intent regardless.
First off…. A girl come banginh on my door asking for help cause a guy was getting ready to start a gun fight. It was 1 other couple. The guy was 48 his wife 43. And then my husband and i. He is 23. Im 27. The lady didnt even get in the middle of anything. It was just the two guys and then me. I didnt even hear that it wad a gun fight. By the time i got out there with the bat he shot us. We didnt even touch him.
you lieing thats my brother n he not a bad kid u had to do something to him to make him shoot u cuz he never shoot to kill some one my brother know better
Do we really need to know an 18 yr old with a gun? And why would I shut up? Why does my opinion not deserve to served up next to yours or anyone else’s. Y’all need to understand a social medium when Y’all see one. Take a moment and help us understand the reason for shooting them there people.
A few years back,while walking into the convenient store on 5th by circle k there was a kid walking into the store ahead of me.He swung the door open and stepped to the side to allow me in first.I said thank you buddy and made a mental note of how rare that is nowadays in kids his age.A week later I was reading about the murders on the east side when I saw his picture.I felt the same way I do now writing this.Fighting back tears.Then rage.How dare these low life scumbags take that little kid and his family’s life! He was such a quiet,polite kid.I never got the chance to repay the favor and hold the door for him.Absolutely ridiculous! I’ll never forget that.
We’ll see how good of a kid he is now that he’s in the system
Just heard on the news that this shooting wasn’t about drugs. That’s the good news. Bad news is that it was because of a girl!!!! Guess I ‘m too old for the logic….pull out a gun because my ex is with someone else?!! No one that I know would ever do that for the sake of a woman!! Hope she feels special now.
The last few shootings in Barberton were all done by thugs from Akron. Get these bums out of here.

Classic realization of what barberton has become
Easy prey for Akron trash?
Akron trash walking across the line into Barberton.
Oh please, there’s been trash in Barberton for as long as I can remember 😂
Thanks Sherlock!! My emoji- Arabian Goggles!!
Good to hear everyone is alive! 3 laughing girls need to go right along with that piece of trash.
Shoot them all.
Pretty sad that this is what our generation is coming to. & for some girls to laugh about it makes me furious. So sorry for your family, praying for the best.

Allow the Light of Jesus Christ open ur hearts.
These negative comments are not helping those families that are suffering these tragedies.
If u cannot Gelp the Situation, Pray for ur. Pray for All of us, before we all are eaten by Our Own Personal Demons!!
U Reap what u Sow, but if U r spreading Hate, Hate will cone back 10 fold!!
I am not perfect.
I try hard everyday to be better than I was yesterday, ho throw some stones at a mirror, and allow God to save ur shattered Mind, ur broken Body, and Ur Torn Soul.
God Bless Us, Every One…
Amen.

What if god doesn’t care?
It was a drug shooting
Wrong.
The guy person whofired the shots probably was defending themselves
Yeah, I bet you are right
Wrong again.
Wrong again.
So we’re supposed to take your word for it? 😂 No
Did that poor skinny boy drive to his ex girlfriends with a gun? Why yes he did!!! See I too can answer my own questions.I don’t do emoji so I’ll use words- Roman Helmet!
he did
Couple of things to consider before commenting.
– how do you know it was drug related
– do we know they were from Barberton
We don’t but usually are involved anymore
You’re right, I’m sure they were all just minding their own business and in the wrong place at the wrong time…
Actually we were thank you
OMG, things are getting so bad all over, these drugs are taking over people’s lives.
Only the weak minded April.Sooo glad you guys got out of there!
Bartberton’s finest!!
Maybe Crackron AGAIN? We’ll see.
That’s what’s wrong with ppl now always what to speak on stuff that they know nothing about that’s where the problem comes in at
That and poor language skills.
But momma says I gotta good brain.
The actual problem would be someone shooting someone else… if you think news comments are worse than that, look in the mirror, you’re the problem.
Look who was right on track.^ We could use a wall on the Akron borders.
But trash like you still seems to get in 🤔
What kinda bird don’t fly?? A jailbird!!!
