Poor Baby, I know Commontray Personally, and Im really sadden by this. I wish, our young people would really wake up and smell the coffee. People dont have respect for human life. And it a shame. They continue to parade around with the asses on their shoulder. Thinking they own the world. I pray for the family and his girlfreind and Two kids, and as well as the one unborn. Good Bless Commontray, he knows you well a good youngman... Love ya
