Authorities have released the name of the man shot Wednesday night outside an Augusta apartment complex.

Darren Reeves, 21, told Richmond County Sheriff’s deputies he was walking in the River Glen Apartments at 201 E. Telfair St. when a man approached and shot him once in the right thigh, according to Sgt. Calvin Chew. Mr. Reeves’s wounds were not life threatening and he was treated and released, Sgt. Chew said. The shooter was described as a black male about six feet tall, wearing all black clothing and armed with a black handgun.

Please, no repeal of the second amendment until these fools kill each other off.

The shooter was described as a black male about six feet tall, wearing all black clothing and armed with a black handgun. Is this statement on a one key stroke on the the AC computer, and the AJC and the Chicago, Washington, Detroit, and Newark and so on and so forth newspapers?

They should pay me royalties (see R&R if y'all are confused)

The Beautiful thing is we "black people" will never be completely eradicated. We don't die, we multiply haven't you heard. Check on that hatred in your heart it's a killer too.

I was told by a black lady that black people just don't love each other and that is a part of the problem. Is that a factor in the problems or is she wrong?

baronvonreich

You sure do seem to multiply. Welfare, Section 8, and EBT rolls would confirm that statement.

The statistical fact is that the #1 killer of young black males is other young black males. I wish there was something I could do to help, but I've been told directly to stay out of "our affairs". So be it....good luck.

lol @ the removed comments. Big suprise there. The truth is frowned upon on this site by most posters.

Are bullets an approved purchase item for folks with a peach card? It must be because it appears the majority of them have weapons in the projects, and you need a weapon if you live there.

1941, I bet they would not be making the same comments about 2nd Amendments. What these idiots fail to realize is that a bullet does not know what race the victim is . i guarantee if someone made a comment about killing all white people, KSL would not be so quick to crack jokes.

Just Another Day

Another young black male WRONGFULLY accused of a crime!!!!! When is "THE MAN" going to leave the African American community alone!!!!!

KSL

Black on black crime. When is it going to stop? Or Black on anybody crime - When is it going to stop? Or for that matter, White, Hispanic, or any other race crime - when will it stop and people live right?

Just Another Day

I was told by a black lady that the biggest problem in the black community was a lack of love among blacks and wondered if that was true?

crazy colored's

It's amazing how brave and valiant we are behind screen names. Just as there is crime in the black community, there is in the white community. Every race has an issue, so why is crime a race thing instead of a people thing. Why can't we people get it together?

replying to justbeasy:

Because humans are "intelligent" about everything except dealing with other human beings. People judge other people on this site everyday and we all know, no one is perfect, or even close, every adullt has skeletons in their closet no matter race, sex, religion, social status etc.............................

And it hurts the country as a whole, listen America can't be great unless we want all of the citizens of this country to be great. But we create divisions within our own country which creates sub cultures and resentment. We're vulnerable to other nations looking to seize the title of world leaders, why, because we can't cleanup and have peace in our own home.
