PT.2 R.I.P TO MY FALLEN ANGELS 08-10

3. ON APRIL 17TH 2009 I EXPERIENCED YET ANOTHER DEATH THAT HURT ME TO MY HEART. THIS WAS THE DEATH OF MY H.S FRIEND A.K.A MY LIL BRO CHAD. CHAD WAS ONLY 18 YEARS OLD. I MET CHAD IN H.S IN WHICH WE BOTH ATTENDED BENJAMIN BANNEKER H.S. CHAD WAS AS I WOULD CALL A "PRETTY BOI". HE LOVED TO DRESS AND STAY FLY BUT THE #1 THING CHAD LOVED WAS BASKETBALL. I WOULD WALK THROUGH THE HALLWAYS AND ALL HE WOULD SAY TO ME IS "I A BUSS UR A$$" LOL. THAT LINE ALWAYS MADE ME SMILE UNTIL I HAD TO GET HIM ON THE COURT AND I BET HE DIDN'T SAY THAT NO MORE WHEN HE SEEN ME LOL. IT WAS THE NIGHT OF APRIL 17TH WHEN CHAD WAS SAID TO HAVE HAD BEEF WITH SOME OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD DUDES WHEN CHAD WAS GUNNED DOWN IN THE CHINESE SPOT ON NOSTRAND AND ST.MARKS WHERE HE WAS LATER ON PRONOUNCED DEAD. THE VERY NEXT DAY CHAD WAS SCHEDULED TO GO CHECK OUT SOME COLLEGE CAMPUSES. ME KNOWING CHAD VERY WELL AND HIS FATHER MR.WILKINS HIS FAMILY CARED FOR HIM DARELY AND LOVED HIM NO MATTER WHAT. IT HURT ME TO MY HEART TO SEE HIM GONE AND I WILL ALWAYS AND FOREVER LOVE CHAD. JUST A YEAR AFTER THIS ON APRIL 17TH, 2010 ME AND MY H.S FRIENDS WHOM ALSO ATTENDED H.S WITH CHAD CONDUTED A MEMORIAL BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT IN THE MEMORY OF CHAD WHICH WAS HELD AT BANNEKER H.S AND TURNED OUT TO BE A GREAT SUCCESS. MANY COMPANIES DONATED THINGS TO US, CHAN 12 NEWS WAS PRESENT ALONG WITH CHAD'S FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND BANNEKER FAMILY IN WHICH WE SHARED A LOT OF TEARS AND LAUGHS. BUT FOR THE MOST PART IT WAS A CELEBRATION FOR CHAD. I LOVE U BATS. WHEN IS THE VOILENCE GOING TO STOP? FOR THE STORY ON CHAD YOU CAN VISIT THIS LINK:

4. ON OCTOBER 5TH 2009 I EXPERIENCED YET ANOTHERRR DEATH THAT NOT ONLY HURT ME TO MY HEART BUT THAT LEFT ME IN THE STATE OF DIS BELIEF AND YET STILL EXIST. THIS WAS THE LOST OF MY LIL BIG BROTHER AS I WOULD CALL HIM DOMINIC MURRAY AKA DOM. UNLIKE THE OTHER DEATHS THUS FAR DOM WAS NOT MURDERED OR KILLED DOM SUFFERED FROM A HEART FAILURE. I MET DOM MY SENIOR BUT HIS FRESHMAN YEAR AT FARMINGDALE. WE BOTH LIVED ON CAMPUS TOGETHER IN THE SAME DORM AND BOTH PLAYED BALL. DOM WAS A VERY SWEET PERSON, HAD A BIG HEART, A DANCER, PRETTY BOY, AND LOVED TO PLAY BASKETBALL THAT WAS HIS PASSION. IT WAS THE EVENING OF OCTOBER 5TH THAT DOM ALONG WITH OTHER TEAMATES WERE PLAYING PICK UP GAMES ON CAMPUS IN THE GYM WHERE THEY HAD ALREADY PLAYED AT LEAST 3 GAMES BUT DOM'S TEAM KEPT WINNING SO DOM KEPT ON PLAYING. DOM WAS A COMPETITOR SO HE NEVER WANTED TO STOP PLAYING. AS HE RAN DOWN THE COURT DOM BEGAN TO SHOW SIGNS OF FATIGUE AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT DOM JUST COLLAPSED ON THE COURT. EVERYONE RAN TO DOM'S RESCUE CPR WAS PERFORMED ON HIM BUT DOM DID NOT COME BACK. HE WAS RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL WHERE ALL TEAMATES AND FAMILY FOLLOWED WHEN HEWAS PRONOUNCED DEAD JUST AN HOUR LATER. THIS DEATH LEFT NOT ONLY ME BUT THE WHOLE CAMPUS IN DIS BELIEF AND SADNESS. IT HAPPENED SO QUICK AND NONE OF US COULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE SCARIEST PART IS AS ATHETES IT COULD HAVE BEEN ANY ONE OF US. WE WALKED AROUND CAMPUS FOR ABOUT 1-2 WEEKS IN SILENCE BECAUSE WE COULD NOT GET OVER THE FACT THAT DOM WAS GONE. SOME OF US EVEN STAYED LOCKED IN OUR ROOMS 2/3 OF US IN ONE BED BECAUSE WE WOULD NOT SLEEP WITH THE THOUGHT OF DOM BEING GONE STILL FRESH IN OUR HEADS. BUSES WERE SENT FOR US ATHLETES AS WELL AS THE FARMINGDALE FAMILY TO BE TAKING TO AND FROM DOMS FUNERAL. WALKING INTO THAT FUNERAL HOME WITH MY GIRLS TEAM ON MY SIDE AND BOYS TEAM WE HELD EACHOTHER DOWN. TEARS TEARS AND MORE TEARS KEPT COMING BUT SOON WE BEGAN TO REALIZE THAT DOM WAS STILL WITH US AND WILL 4 EVER BE. DOMS MOM MELINDA MURRAY IS A VERY STRONG WOMAN AND WE COMMEND HER FOR BEING SO STRONG FOR HER ONLY SON AND THE ONLY PARENT IN DOMS LIFE BEING THAT DOM'S FATHER PASSED WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER ALSO DUE TO HEART PROBLEMS. THE DOMINIC HEART 21 FOUNDATION HAS BEEN FORMED TO PROVIDE FREE HEART SCREENING TO ATHLETES ALL AROUND THE WORLD SO THAT THE CAUSE OF HEART FAILURE COULD BE REDUCED. DOM WILL 4 EVER BE APART OF OUR F.S.C FAMILY AS HIS BANNER IS HANGING ON OUR GYM WALL AS WELL AS HIS JERSEY TAKES UP ONE OF OUR GAME CHAIRS. I LOVE YOU LIL BIG BRO AND I WILL BE HERE 4 UR MOM AND SO WILL THE F.S.C FAM. FOR MORE INFO ON DOMINIC CHECK OUT

5. NOVEMBER 5TH 2009 ANOTHER DEATH IN MY LIFE TOOK PLACE. THE LOST OF MY COUSIN ANTHONY GORDON POSTON AKA TONY. TO THIS DAY NO ONE REALLY KNOWS THE STORY OF HOW TONY DIED. THERE WERE MANY STORIES GOING AROUND SAYING HOW HE HAD COMMITTED SUICIDE THEN THERE WAS ANOTHER STORY SAYING HOW HE WAS SET UP. WHAT HURTS THE MOST IS THAT NO ONE KNOWS THE TRUE STORY BUT YET THE LIFE OF MY COUSIN WAS TAKING AWAY. TONY LEFT BEHIND HIS ONLY DAUGHTER AND FAMILY OF MANY. HE WILL FOREVER BE IN MY HEART. I LOVE YOU TONY..

R.I.P TO ALL OF MY FALLEN SOLDIERS OF 04-08

I HAVE COME TO REALIZE THAT THE YOUNGER GENERATION ARE BEING KILLED AND EXPERIENCING DEATH FASTER THAN THE OLDER GENERATION BUT WHY? NO ONE KNOWS THE ANSWER TO THAT OF COURSE BUT I DECIDED TO SPEAK OUT ON MY LOSTS THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS ITSELF DUE TO POLICE KILLINGS, "NOT MEANT 4" KILLINGS AND VIOLENCE. MY REASON FOR DOING SO IS TO HOPEFULLY OPEN PEOPLE EYES UP TO SEE THAT LIFE IS NOT A GAME AND LIFE IS TO SHORT.. ANY GIVING DAY THE SAME WAY YOU WERE BROUGHT INTO THIS WORLD THE SAME WAT YOU CAN BE TAKING AWAY AND WE NEED TO ALL GET ALONG AND LIVE OUR LIFE NOT IN HATRED AND RAGE BUT IN LOVE AND PEACE PLEASE LISTEN TO ME....

POLICE

1. ON JANUARY 23RD 2004 I RECIEVED A PHONE CALL FROM MY AUNT JEWEL WHO LIVE IN BEDFORD STUYVESANT LEXINGTON AVE THAT MY LONG TIME FRIEND TIMOTHY STANSBURY HAD BEEN SHOT AND KILLED BY NYPD. TIMOTHY WAS ONLY 19 YEARS OLD, SENIOR AT JEFFERSON H.S, AND HAD A JOB WORKING FULL TIME AT MCDONALDS. NOT EVEN CLOSE TO A TROUBLE MAKER. TIM AS WE CALLED HIM WAS COMING FROM A PARTY IN THE NEXT BUILDING ALONG WITH MY COUSIN TERRENCE AND FRIEND SHAWN WHOM BOTH WERE DJN THE PARTY THAT NIGHT. THE THREE DECIDED TO GO TO TERRENCE HOUSE TO GET SOME CDS FOR THE PARTY AND DECIDED TO CROSS THE ROOFTOP TO THE NEXT BUILDING IN WHICH WE ALWAYS CALLED IT A "SHORT CUT". WE USED THIS SHORT CUT ALL THE TIME. TIM LED THE WAY ACROSS AND OPENED THE DOOR TO THE ROOF TO GO DOWN THE STAIRS TO THE BUILDING IN WHICH TWO POLICE OFFICERS WERE PATROLING AND THEY QUICKLY TOOK THEY GUNS OUT BECAUSE THEY "HEARD NOISE". NEITHER POLICE OFFICER SAID ANYTHING NOR DID THEY IDENTIFY THEMSELVES WHEN ONE OF THE OFFICERS PULLED THE TRIGGER SHOOTING TIM IN THE CHEST AND HE FELL DOWN 5 FLIGHTS OF STEPS BLEEDING TO DEATH IN WHICH HE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD AT WOODHULL HOSPITAL THAT SAME MORNING. TIM LEFT NOT ONLY ME HE LEFT HIS OTHER FRIENDS, HIS MOM AND DAD, AND FAMILY. EVENTHOUGH BLOOMBERG ISSUED AN APOLOGY AND ATTENDED THE FUNERAL THAT WASNT GOING TO BRING TIM BACK. POLICE COMMISSIONER KELLY HELD A PRESS CONFERENCE AND NOTHING WAS DONE TO THE POLICE OFFICER HE IS STILL A UNIFORMED COP. NOT ONLY DID I LOOSE A FRIEND BUT NO JUSTICE WAS SERVED. THERE IS A DOCUMENTARY THAT WAS DONE IN MEMORY OF TIM THAT WON 1ST PLACE IN THE TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL AS WELL AS A GRAMMY. IT IS TITLED "BULLETS IN THE HOOD" GOOGLE IT.

2. ON AUGUST 8TH 2008 I WAS ON A BUS RIDE WITH MY FAMILY HEADING TO DORNEY PARK WHEN I RECIEVED THE CALL FROM MY PANICING CRYING MOTHER TO GET THE NEWS THAT I HAD LOST SOMEONE VERY CLOSE TO ME BY THE NAME OF DARRYL "KING FRONTZ" BATTLE. DARRYL WAS MY NEPHEWS UNCLE IN WHICH I NAMED HIM MY BRO IN LAW. HE WAS ONLY 20 YEARS OLD AND JUST BEFORE HE DIED HIS SON JAYVON CAME INTO THIS WORLD. DARRYL WAS ONLY 20 YEARS OLD, HAD A GOOD JOB AND WAS NOT A TROUBLE MAKER. DARRYL WAS SHOT AND KILLED BY NYPD DETECTIVES FOR AS THE NEWSPAPERS WOULD OF COURSE SAY "THE POLICE FELT THREATENED BECAUSE DARRYL PULLED OUT AN KNIFE, SO HE FELT HE HAD TO FIRE". DARRYL WAS SHOT 1 TIME WITH A 9-MM PISTOL JUST 6-FEET AWAY FROM THE DETECTIVE IN HIS CHEST AND HE DIED ON THE SPOT IN THE 1ST FLOOR OF HIS APARTMENT WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD NEPHEW PRESENT JUST UPSTAIRS IN THE VERY SAME APARTMENT. A NEARBY NEIGHBOR MADE A COMMENT THAT STUCK WITH ME FOREVER SINCE THAT DAY "THE POLICE ARE GOING TO SAY MY LIFE WAS IN DANGER AND THATS PROBABLY GOING TO BE THEIR GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD". THE POLICE OFFICER WAS NOT CHARGED ON ANY ACCOUNT AND IS ALSO STILL A UNIFORMED POLICE OFFICER. YET ANOTHER LOST TO ME RESULTING IN THE SAME WAY. FOR MORE INFO ON DARRYL'S DEATH CHECK THIS LINK.
