(More from Ebony at This Happens Every Day)

It’s happened again! Within a week of the beating death of the 16-year-old Derrion Alberts, another boy, this time a 14-year-old, was beaten on Tuesday. He skull was fractured, and he was left bleeding in the streets.

The boy (his name is not being released by police at this time) is now in critical condition at Children’s Memorial Hospital undergoing surgery. This time the event happened on the Northside.
Last Night, A witness told police the victim was being chased by three males about 7:45 p.m. After the three caught up with the victim, all three beat him, and one reportedly struck him over the head using some type of shiny” object.

A neighbor found the boy lying in the street while she was looking for a parking space. Blood was all over the street. It was all over his face, arms, and coming from the back of his head. Two little girls and another kid were with him, holding him down. The police arrived shortly. Police have not yet made any arrests.

IS THIS AN AFFRONT TO THE OUTRAGE THAT HAS SPREAD ACROSS THE NATION?

The powerful truth is that this is only a mirror! All I know is that these events only reflect US…(all the ADULTS who have arrived here before they did). Who we are and our choices in resolving conflict. There is an energy, a wicked one NO DOUBT, that has chosen our children as ripe receptacles for violence and brutality. Why are our children so vulnerable to these demonic acts of senseless terror against THEIR OWN!? Both Derrion and the latest victim (here in Chicago) were defenseless to attack! NO WEAPONS! AND THE ATTACKERS. JUST HAVE AN ENERGY WITH A MISSION! WHO IS THEIR MASTER? THESE STORIES ARE DEEPER & THE ELEMENTS AT PLAY ARE FIGHTING FOR SOULS.

    this violence is nothing new..happens everyday in poor communities everywhere…i see youth fighting each other 3 to 5 times a week on my street…you never see anyone trying to stop it….we already know the city and gov don’t care, but it seems the elders, churches, and community leaders don’t give much of a crap either.
