<<<<< "Honor" someone who could never be called a role model? >>>>> Holy shit - there's your racism. The boy was 18 and had graduated - who knows what he might have become. My gosh I was no role model at 18 either. See that's the sad part of this since he was shot down before he was old enough to drink alcohol. Were the odds against him? Sure. But our society has to step up and accept some of that responsibility too. ........Maybe!, something good comes out of this and we start talking about the problem. But that has to include all of us. And that also means we have to stop labeling people because of their color.
