He was on the street because they ran him off and now they want to act like they care . I was homeless once. I know how family is .They are as much to blame for his death as the evil doer who killed him

[jasonmcroy]

They should be respectful to the police

This man may have been this way since birth and he would qualify for all kinds of assistance . If you have a family member, help them get services . Some people are homeless but others are mentally disable . Those people should not be alone, walking around, it’s not the same as drug addiction or stress leading to homelessness, it’s totally different .

Where was he shot that one pellet was lethal? I've shot squirrels with pellets before, but they are small & soft.

No Doubt! That's a child with a pettlet gun! Hopefully he was with another child who will tell their parent! Someone knows if their child owns a pellet THEY BOUGHT, to shoot birds! And they also know he wasn't home. Yet, I don't believe they were intended to kill him! Actually, I didn't know those pellets could kill! This is news to me!

This is So Tragic, what kind of Lunatic does something like this.. Sincerest Condolences to his family and may he RIP..

Society has simply gone to Sh!t!!
