You know, on the one side of the “youth” spectrum, we have this amazing kid and others like him...
...and on the other side, there’s Trayvon Martin and those like him.
Couldn’t have a more drastic picture of polar opposites.
One goes down a good path....the other goes off the edge.

Quick, get this kid to a re-education camp errr I mean Ivy League school so he can learn never to do anything like this again without the supervision of government. Ivy League school Ivy-covered North Korea (term used by an educator aware of what is going on).

Yes, I too lost a dear friend to pancreatic cancer almost 2 years ago now...we got a call on my birthday sept 1, her husband said to come quickly, we came out from AZ to central CA that weekend and she was gone the next Tuesday...but we know that she went home to be with our Lord Jesus Christ. No one know the end, but you can know where you go by putting your life in the hand of the only one who gives Eternal life...

Might as well cut your own head off if you’re diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. I hope this kid’s idea works.
Maryland PING!

We should lock him in a lab, keep him away from girls and music. ;p

It’s just such a striking contrast...
Our culture produces people like this kid...
Ghetto culture produces, well...we all know what that produces.
