This is why gangbangers in L.A. get no f*cking respect from me....Seriously

[Slice-Twice]

LOS ANGELES — A high school football star described as "a Houdini on the football field" was shot dead on Sunday in random gang violence and his mother was returning from her second tour of duty in Iraq.

Jamiel Andre Shaw, 17, was shot multiple times on a sidewalk a few yards from his home after he didn't respond when two men pulled up in a car and asked him, "Where you from?" — code for which gang did he belong to, police said. He was not a gang member.

Authorities are calling the shooting a random, unprovoked gang attack.

Shaw, a standout running back at Los Angeles High School and the Southern League's most valuable player last season, was shot about 8:40 p.m. Sunday in the Crenshaw area. He died later at a local hospital.

Known to his friends as "Jazz," Shaw was heading places, said his father, Jamiel Shaw Sr.

"He was going to make something out of himself," Jamiel Sr. told MyFOXLA.com. "All he had to do was get out of high school."

His mother, Army Sgt. Anita Shaw, on Monday was on her way back from Iraq, where she has been serving her second tour of duty.

Jamiel Shaw Sr. said he called Jamiel on Sunday night, telling him to hurry home from the mall. A few moments after hanging up, Jamiel Sr. said, he heard the shots outside.

"They killed him while his mother is in Iraq fighting, dodging bullets, and she gets a phone call to say her son is on the streets of L.A., dead. For what?" Jamiel Sr. said.

Shaw's best friend, Marc Anthony Asher, witnessed the attack, telling MyFOXLA.com the men shot him in the head.

"He wasn't a gangbanger; he wasn't no thug," Asher said. "He was a regular kid."

Jamiel Sr. said his son's ultimate goal was to be a sports agent.

"I would tell him, 'I'm going to get you to 18, and if you do what you're supposed to do, you'll get to college'" the father recalled. "He was almost there."

Hardy Williams, football coach at Los Angeles High, said Jamiel was "a very special kid. Not only was he an outstanding athlete, he was a good person."

And, Williams said, he was "a Houdini on the football field."

Jamiel was an all-city first-team selection last season after he rushed for 1,052 yards, averaging more than 14 yards per carry, and scored 10 touchdowns. He also ran track.

In the past week, Williams said, Stanford and Rutgers universities contacted him about Jamiel. "He was elated," Williams recalled.

Police said they are seeking the public's help in identifying the suspects, whom officials described only as two Latino men in a white compact sedan. Investigators believe the shooting was not racially motivated. Jamiel was black.

"Unfortunately, it's not uncommon in L.A. that we have some gang members approaching victims at random just to see if they are (gang members) or not," said police Detective Frank Carillo. "But to shoot them anyway, that's just disgusting."

Jamiel Sr. implored the public for help.

"This is not Iraq; this is L.A.," he told MyFOXLA.com. "You should be able to walk down the damn street — you should be able to walk the street without getting killed. Somebody's seen what happened: Somebody knows. Please help us."

the worst part about all this is that shes asking for help, but in the wake of the "stop snitching" movement, which most of you on here ****ing cosign, things like this go unsolved and untouched. Some of you in here will act like this is ****ed up and the gangbangers should be caught, but then in other threads youre quick to call the next man a snitch or advocate for "stop snitchin"

[Dropper]

Yea thats not right holmes.

But how the hell they know what happened if homie is dead? Where did they find out that the vatos who shot the homie asked where he was from? That makes no sense.

And this doesnt happen just in LA... it happens everywhere, so dont put it just on LA gangsters..

[westkoast2k2]

LOS ANGELES — Gang bangers everywhere in LA today are mourning a huge loss they all felt. After learning of a story where a kid with a bright future was killed in a Los Angeles Ghetto the SOHH poster and Mobb Deep tattoo holder Slice Twice as stated he will no longer give them any respect. OG Baby Loc had this to say "Man, we were desperately holding on by the respect we got from some random guy in Long Island. Now with the economy dropping, even less jobs, and all this other **** I don't know if we can handle it anymore. This is serious loc"

[west coast avenger]

that one is nothing, I think it was last week where a crip was running up on two other supposed gang bangers and he ended up shooting 5 kids at a bus stop the age range was from 5-12, its getting pretty bad out here again to say the least

Your right! No one lost there life in that shooting, I guess I should have used better words to describe that other shooting, both were senseless though

[nalej]

Saddest part is when the dad recounted on how he was going to get him past 18 and make something of himself. Senseless, just senseless.

god damn shame. It will go unsolved too.

cali is the only place where this bull**** happens frequently

i always tell people the difference between cities in cali and other cities is cali dudes kill random people for no gottdamn reason


alot of times in other places its drug related or retaliation purposes for some other bullshyt that happened before

if that were the case CaLi would have the highest murder rate so I think you are misinformed, them n1ggaz in Philly be wilding when the sun is out

[Mercury Hayes]

like i said man, alot of times when i read alot cali murders, its random ass shootings.

i didnt say anything about the most murders

im from detroit, and alot of the murders there were NOT random. youd hear about good ass people getting murdered premeditatedly but not too often (not me atleast)...murders in the line of fire do happen, but in theory, thats not premeditated.

im in cali now, and i hear shyt like this too much and too often.


i always felt safe in detroit cause the crime there is usually from people who have beef with other people....retaliation crime, drug crime, or something over a bytch.

[Endiphrint]

Philly was averaging 6 a day in the summer. That's on some Iraqi millitant chit. On a side note, you ever ponder how strange it is that we can be numb to this? Like I catch myself sometimes, or one might even say I check myself sometimes because my feelings are numb to it all, and i feel somewhat disapointed in myself for being that way, but it happens so much anymore that I find myself more shocked if I hear about someone getting hit by a car. One more thing that stood out to me was this........

Police said they are seeking the public's help in identifying the suspects, whom officials described only as two Latino men in a white compact sedan. Investigators believe the shooting was not racially motivated. Jamiel was black.


With everything being reported about F13 and ECC, or La EMe and the 60's or at least the rumors related to such, it seems somewhat strange that police already have brushed off the racial aspect of it all....

CaLi is gang central unfortunately so sh1t goes down like that right now the blacks and the mexicans are waring so sh1t is going to get out of hand just watch when they retaliate from this shooting. What part of CaLi you in?

[micadvancement]

thats messed up...were all gonna die soon homie just never got a chance to show his potential which sucks

[BlackMuzic]

the only reason cali has the most murders in raw numbers is because the state California has 38 million people so you are going to have more murders and murderers amongst a higher population.....but percentagewise Cali doesnt have the most murders

[DESTINE-2-SHINE_HNIC]

Sad situation, thats why i dont do LA. Im not a gangster. Im not pretending to be a gangster. Im sure this cat wasnt either. Its just senseless. Shiit like this you dont blame it on rap music, you blame it on idiocy.

How do you stop it? Its a vicious cycle that is reflective upon the society that we live in. Its weird because were i live (pomona) you hear about this shiit, but you dont necessarily see it. Its just sad, inexcusable.

thats pretty much an ignorant statement on your part. why single out one city?
if you really want to get down to it, there are more gang related killings in chicago than LA. if you actually knew the situation in LA you might know that latino and black relations have been strained for over 50 years.things are very crazy right now because of it. shiit just boiled over. ****s sad but for you to single out an entire city and an entire group of people is plain ignorant on your part.
