It
seems every time I turn on the news, I hear about someone getting
shot by a stray bullet. It is becoming a way of life in the San
Jose and Oakland Bay Area. On August 3, 2013, 19 year old Kimberly
Joyce Estrada Chico was hit by a stray bullet while riding in the
passenger’s seat of a friend’s car on her way to a club in San
Jose California. Kimberly Joyce Estrada Chico was aspiring to become
a registered nurse at San Jose State. Johnny Zapata Lozano allegedly
just happened to go outside in the early morning hours and shot off a
gun. Authorities don’t believe that Kimberly was targeted. I it a
shame this could have happened to anyone. Kimberly just happened to
be in the wrong place at the wrong time. It doesn’t stop there. On
August 7, 2013 in Oakland California while they slept 20 year old
Andrew Thomas and his 16 months old son Drew Jackson was shot while
they slept. Andrew Thomas died at the scene and his son Drew Jackson
died at the hospital. This tragedy was in the wake of the funeral of
Andrew Thomas 18 year old cousin Alquino Rivera. Who was shot over
the weekend? Authorities believe that the victims were targeted. What
is so sad is that Drew Jackson had to die over some B.S. that his
adult relatives were into. There is a disturbing statistics in
Oakland California children are getting killed behind stupid sh__.
Drew Jackson is the youngest victim of 21 children murdered in
Oakland California since 2011. Among them is innocent Alaysha
Carradine, 8 years old shot and killed when someone sprayed an
apartment front door with gunfire while she was at a sleepover. Then
there were Carlos Nava age 3, was killed in Oakland in August 2011
while being pushed in his stroller and Gabriel Martinez age 5 was
shot dead later that year. This is alarming statistic we can’t keep
losing are innocent defenseless angels. It is a shame that anybody
can get a gun if you don’t have a felony. Everyone should have a
physiological test. I don’t know what else we can do as a society
other than banning all guns. I know that won’t happen people will
be outraged. If you can think of a solution let me know.
