Kandi, I am indeed praying for you and AJ’s children. The word of God says, “That he won’t put more on you than you can bare.” I know its going to be hard, but when you need some strength just look up to Jesus, and he’ll make it ALRIGHT!!

It’s so sad that our young men, our men are leaving us to the violence and senseless murders. What happened to the times when men would talk like men rather than just kill one another.Just because you take a LIFE that does not make you a man.It’s just so sad that there won’t be anyone to protect the women,to help raise the kids ,to teach the young men HOW to be men, responsible men.The treatment that we have already sustained as a people, don’t we think it to be time to START loving and respecting and caring for each other.Or is the hate that we have for us that deep, the hate we have been taught so deep that it’s irrepairable? Never, that’s not why GOD still have us existing. Time to get it together and fight this war. Our war.We got to save us and save our babies, who are the seeds.PLEASE, let’s start loving again. War is not the answer people! PLEASE LET’S TRY.!!!!!! R.I.P. ASHLEY.

It’s so sad how we are taking lives with no regards of the consequenses left behind. We better start learning to love US and unlearn the hate we have been taught. people for real we got to just ” SAY NO”.We got to get back to basics, being men and women, civilized and God’s chosen people. Let’s start lovin’ again.

Monica,
You are most definitely right. God knows what He is doing though we may not always be able to understand the WHYs in life. Kandi has custody of his twin girls, i hope the other 4 are alright
