How Many More?

Yet another young man dead needlessly. I can't believe that there are people calling him a 'fallen soldier.' What's the matter with all of you? This was a little boy of 16 years old. There's a family devastated and people are posting pictures of him flashing gang symbols. This isn't a game and this isn't Los Angeles. I hope at least some of his friends will see just how stupid this all is. You've really got to grow up boys, and quickly.

I used to see this boy about: we werent on speakin terms cos he was alot younger, but its still shocking and sad to learn that his life has been taken. from what ive heard happened, im feeling anger towards who did this, but i wna offer advice to all the young 1s in penge blok. 4get about ur gang, ur gna get 2 a certain age and realise its all nonsense anyway, it isnt the way 2 make life. education and family is the key. determine who are ur close friends and stick with them, the others will hold you back. This is comin from someone who has been there and done it. The fight isnt on the street, its inside u. RIP Ben, my deepest condolences to his mother!

For Ben

Something Like This Happening To Someone I Knew Just Goes To Show That We Really Do Live In Such A Cruel And Unjust World. I Stil Can't Belive What Has Happened Someone So Smiling And Jokey Taken At Such A Young Age. It Just Doesn't Seem Fair!
Was Just Thinking Now About What A Mad Summer In Year 8 We Had..Those All Nighters Sleeping In A Sainsburys Trolley, Eating Ice Lolleys In The Park, You Geting Your House Phone Barred For Ringing Me Too Much Lol..Memories Like That Will Always Remain.X
Had Been A While Since I Saw And Spoke To You Last But All The Same I Just Want To Send All My Love To Your Family..Especially Your Little Brothers Louie And Jake .. They Are Now Missing An Older Brother They Needed And Looked Up To!

Rest In Peace Ben xXx

R.I.P Ben

Man, can't believe it, just really can't believe you've gone, all the good times shall be remembered, all the laughs you gave the whole of our english class, everything.

BIG respects go out to your family. I know you'll always be there in everyones hearts.

You went too young, but that's what this world is becoming, all violence, people need to sort them selves out and i hope your departure makes people realise that this gang culture isn't a cool thing to get into, and that if they carry on fighting over the sodding colour of lamp posts and bins a lot more people are gonna get killed. Such a waste of a life, i hope the person that did it can't live with himself, knowing that he took a young and good life.

Rest in paradise up there Ben, i won't forget you.

glen.robinson@hotmail.com is the msn, i've got a couple of pics of him on leavers night, so add me if you want them.
