- The community is rallying around a distraught mother after two of her children were shot and killed inside their North Nashville home.
There are clues in these photos of the boys flashing hand signs. Do not let your children participate in these type practices in photos or at anytime. We have to keep our children safe by knowing what they are doing outside the home🥺Very sorry this happened.
You can't prevent your kids from doing stuff like that, especially these days. Much easier said than done
I must say that these guys very much look the part of a gang member.. could be wrong. But don't have kids if you can't raise them right and provide the atmosphere needed to do so..
@@franciswillis1673 What a wretched person you must be. YOU DONT KNOW THESE PEOPLE!!! SHAME ON YOU for casting your unnecessary, ignorant judgment on this grieving family that you have never met. WAS THERE ANYTHING OR ANYWHERE IN THE VIDEO THAT SAID THIS WAS GANG RELATED as you just implied it? It's amazing how you just know it was by a photo. You also don't know what kind of mother this woman is. You are extremely wrong and out of order. Please do better.
I didn't hear one thing about this being gang related in this video. Nice way to assume what you don't know.
Not even a gang sign 🙄
The life you live will speak for you. This pic tells me everything I need to know. Somebody in that house bought it to their door.
Whew!
Right
exactly. they couldn't find non gang signed pictures of her 2 out of 5 kids? wonder how their daddies feel about the losses.
@SiccDeville I’m pretty sure the dads don’t care- and were only worried about not having to be held financially responsible for anybody besides themselves.
If they cared/ they would have been on the scene. Duh. And not even work could have kept them away..
You don't know these people you sound racist @@AmberColeman-gq1wn
Jesus… my prayers are with this mother for her loss. Prayers for the entire family. This is beyond heartbreaking ❤️🩹
Amen.☁️🎺👼💒🙏🌹

@1:10 & @1:30 Who are these people, and why are they flashing gang signs..? Hmmm...Gang bangers deserve NO SYMPATHY..!
Why is the news allowing these people to twist Truth around and play the victims..?!
@@MacDaddyRico Exactly my point they never wanna talk about what the fuck these people did to make them get shot when you do things to people remember everybody retaliate differently so no sympathy because I don’t know the full story and I nobody gonna just run up in your house unless you did some serious shit today or said some serious shit about them even if it’s allegations lies whatever cell I can recall all high school I was beating bitches up and knocking hoes out they shoes lol bullying is real disrespect is real.
@@MacDaddyRico Stop spamming with the same ole BS.
Gang life, blood in,blood out. He hanged with wrong low lives and paid with his life
@@nay9377 WOW ! Seriously? So how would you feel if someone ran into your home and shot your whole family , killing 2 of them , for your actions at school or elsewhere?
everybody wants to be a gangster, dont nobody wants to live right, people need to get their kids out of these streets and teach them something more then what they are learning.
Exactly!
They can't teach what they don't know. The community needs to come together to educate and guide.
you aint never lie and everybody else gott get shot up and suffer because of one's person action sad forreal!
@@fefe6995 Thats true to hate to say it some people that live in the hood really just dont know there's people that havent left a 2 -6 block radius they whole life ad forreal!
Bro what make you assume they was being gangster or street it could’ve been simple argument or about a girl you instantly think gang banging
God be with that poor, poor mother!
What was God doing while this was happening?? Is he ever anywhere?
@@bozm9961 THOSE WITH FAITH NO PROOF IS NEEDED THOSE WITHOUT FAITH NO PROOF WILL EVER BE ENOUGH.....
@Joyce Williams really? How convenient, so she needed God and the child didn't? Get help.
Should've kept them out the streets, tattoos and gang signs
Those children were living the life or perpetrating you can tell by the hand signs we have to keep our children out of the streets . Where is the father ? We as parents sometimes lose control of our teenage sons who are trying so hard to be men find their way. As a parent of two sons my heart goes out to the family. My condolences to the family and I hope that the other children are okay.
Black Americans in the hood are the worst parents on earth
Hood names given to them by a hood mum , dumb AF .
The picture of the young man does him no justice! Just saying 🤨
The media always gives the mothers a pass for child neglect and scream gun violence when in actuality it's single parent homes and the lack of father's around whether its from the family courts system along with mother depriving father's of being around; limiting them to be financial or weekend Dad's or father was a deadbeat or thug who can't stay out of prison. Overall the system is the system which may play a part but parents need to be held accountable by themselves and the people of their neighborhoods
You mean because he’s throwing up gang signs
I feel bad she lost her children however the first thing I noticed is the gang signs being thrown up smh

I didn’t hear that.. I’m going back to rewatch

What?
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine your grief. Your family is in my prayers.
This is so heartbreaking!!! I can't wrap my head around this. They should have chosen a different picture... . They will swear it was gang related.
That's what it looks like...
Isn’t it? I think that’s the west coast hand gesture.
That's the first thing I thought
Considering one of the suspects was shot… bye Felicia
@@RayRougeau-jk8ir I'm here to stay😗. I can shoot a suspect, that doesn't make me a gang member.
Why did they show that picture of her or her sons holding up what appears to be "GANG SIGNS"??? Like was this gang related and how did one of the suspects get shot if not from someone in the home returning fire. This sounds all around like bad news no matter what.
That's how they do us SMH
@@deon2514 .. Wtf are you talking about? "Thats how THEY do us"... 1st they don't do us like nothing! We do ourselves like this.... 2nd "Us" gave those pictures to be put out... Not they! Uhhhh you people!!
@@ok.s4830 like I said that's how they portray us meanwhile the guy who just shot up the high school they use the innocent picture of him as a kid wearing glasses why they're not using his mugshot like they would do anyone else? So wtf you saying
@@deon2514 Ive seen the mugshot of that school shooter AND his parents many times. Those pictures make them look like mean creepy people. It would be best if no one on the jury saw those pictures!
The mother raised criminals.
Her heart will never be the same. No parent should have to bury their children. Hugs and prayers to the families.
She should of thought about that raising two
Hoodlums
When I worked In the hospital caring for people who had to deal with shootings n etc, you can never allow it to leave your mind or heart. Prayers for this family and all...
Yes it’s very hard I was shot before 😢😢
@@jonyettasalter9864 blessings to you. May you continue to rise above everything, you once faced
@@meeka2702 thanks baby
I'm sorry for the family but the news guy said that one of the suspects was killed so that mean someone other than the suspect had a gun
Or the one at large shot him too. The case will be blown open in no time because the street, social and traditional media will get to the bottom and reveal what happened.
So? Everyone should have a gun to protect their home and themselves

I cannot imagine her pain. God be with her♡
Another unfortunate situation…condolences to all that loved them. It’s a blessing for the family survivors.
😢🥺 so sad.. the answer to this crime lies in the reason why those killers choose that particular house. My heart goes out to the mother. Hope the escaped killer is apprehended, convicted, and receive the death penalty.
Hmmmmmm I’m sure they attacked the home at random right? Lmfao! Totally random.
Girllll she know something they ain Evan crying
THANK YOU!!!! Everybody is saying how sorry they are for her....she wasn't even crying except for that one tear she forced out. I cried harder when my pet died! And the grandmother was talking like it was some family down the street and not her family.
Lmao
@@tropicaldaze23 I'm dead🤣😩🙏🏼
@@tropicaldaze23 They could still be in shock or desensitized by the violence that goes on in their environment. Either way, something isn’t right. This was a targeted hit. The pictures of those young men told me everything I needed to know unfortunately. Still, my prayers go up for the mother. These senseless killings need to stop.
@@tropicaldaze23 Right....hogwash with the mom and silly grandmother
So someone just randomly came in her home to try and kill all of her children but left her alive and not fighting for her life like the other 3. A blind person can see that there’s more to this story. RIP young men💔
Something is very strange about this horrific act. Since one of the suspects was shot that means someone was returning shots. This needs to be looked at closely. Why did they show a picture of one of the sons holding up a gang sign with his hands??? Wasn't there any other pictures than that?? Regardless whether he was in a gang or not, showing that picture isn't good at all!!
Teens do that all the time, does not mean he was gang affiliated. Stupid and rude comment.
I was thinking the same thing.
@@jblank1862 no not all teens do that
Clearly there was a situation in the streets that erupted in deadly consequences her living room.
I have sympathy for the family nobody should have too die like this.
However, we can't stick our collective heads in the ground. Why did those young men roll up at their house blasting everyone? The path of street life leads directly to the grave or a cell.
🗣❗I see it to much shocks me everytime it's just not a good look
She knows more then what she saying it’s all in her face
What's in her face?
A woman that knows more information she does
I was scrolling to see this comment! Glad someone said it.
@@livingwiththejohnsons3660 me to and SHE KNOW!!! I wonder if she was involved in somthen or one of her boys!
Yep because she said they should have just went after her....hummm
As a mother I can't begin to imagine what she's going through all I can do is pray that God gives her the strength she needs to get through this and RIP to her boys 😪💔🙏
She did a crap job raising her kids. They end up in gang lifestyle and paid the price.
@@hisexcellencytrump855 that's very mean for you to say. You don't know what kind of mother she is. Kids do what they want after a certain age, can't blame the parents

No one deserves death and the suspect deserves to be prosecuted, but those pictures of the babies proudly throwing gang signs is telling.
💯
The kids didn't look innocent at all with the gang signs!
Exactly what I was thinking! Nice choice of a photo or were there not any of him "throwing up signs"?
@@TarHeelForevah they prolly never took a pic without a sign, but they could've cropped that out but hey
@@lesaineback9536 that's there life why take it out the truth
He was really gentle and loving throwing them gang signs really seems gentle and loving it was probably payback karma gets everyone regardless of age but the stupidity of one got 5 people shot the police should investigate what the victims did the days before that's how they will catch the other shooters this is to much violence at once just to be random but that's just common sense........
My deepest condolence goes out to the mother I lost one son at the age of 15 in 2006 my deepest prayers are with you
The boy throwing up a hand sign SMH 🤧 ...regardless or not he's in a gang or whatever those boys where"out there" it's only a matter of time before something happens . Stuff like this ain't random period !
It looks like the boys was in a gang
Was in a gang
JUST STOP U PEOPLE KILL ME ASS UMING SHYT YOU HAVE NO IDEA DO YOU KNOW THEM, HELL NAW
I said it also I love my people and they need to stop killing each other bad enough we getting killed because of skin color
@@rayharris7867 I'm sure the real story, the WHOLE story, world shine a different light on this tragedy. Live by sword, Die by the sword.
My heart breaks for her. As a mother I can not even begin to imagine. My thoughts and prayers are with this family and the 2 babies in Heaven. May they rest peacefully😔💛🙏
Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry for your loss and I'm praying for a speedy recovery for your children. RIP Young Guys.
I'm sorry for your loss but why would anybody randomly Target your house and your kids for nothing
Sickening, absolutely Sickening. Lifestyle choices has a lot to do with incidents like this. Unfortunately many of our people live in perpetual denial.
This is so sad and happens way too often. My heart breaks for her.
There is some important information missing. A mother with 5 children all under 21 years of age. Someone just choose their house and start shooting. I think the mom / sons was into some mess and the older two boys step up and stud there ground and loss there lives. They were able to shoot back at one and kill one . So that means they had a gun. It just so hard to believe. She really didn’t even look into the camera because she knew the bull shit that was going on. And she thought because they were kids that the perpetrator would have some type of mercy on them. Not….they really tried to kill them all. Them shooting back saved the rest of the family. Now she got to live with what really happened the rest of her life.
Was kinda thinking that too but it’s hard to tell since I don’t know them
If you Google the mom, you will find that she has a lengthy criminal history of driving on a suspended license, gun charges, possession charges, etc. So I highly doubt the mom was innocent in this case. Just sad that parents continue to lead their children astray to this degree of destroying their lives.
So tragic Rest In Peace to both of her boys. Pray her other children pull through. Prayers for her and her family during this difficult time. This gun violence has got to stop. 😇🙏🏾
The mother said, "No matter what....", which leads me to believe that she actually knows the motive. I don't remember the family asking, "Why would someone do this? or Why did this happen to my family?".
Exactly
Perhaps...
Right…. They didn’t say a word about who as why would they do this…. Whoever did it was making a statement. Something is it right. Also the kids had a lot of tattoos to be in high school. This is so sad.
@@NotfromDetroit I've been a teacher for 25 years and about 10 years ago, students in high school start getting a lot of tattoos. One of my sons is 31 and has maybe a few to handle full of them and my 21 year old doesn't have any.
@@maryjflanagan1922 WOW! This is a different time on the serious tip!
Gang members, mom that is the reason for your two sons deaths, RIH and prayers for your family, just be truthful about the situation, Mother's will love their children no matter what they do or how they live.
Yes thank you she acting all innocent
They weren’t in no gang you fool
Gang signs young killers payback 4 the get back it's just ruff to be a single parent the kids be into all kinda crazi shit people isn't coming to your door for nothing. Parents be so quick to say that wasn't my son without even knowing there son is a demon 😈

Prayers for her and her family 🙏🏾♥️
My Sincerest Condolences to mom, grandma, family and friends RIP 🙏🏽🕊
Going off their photos, they wanted that life. It's all good when someone else is getting hurt but one day it lands on your doorstep so don't cry when it comes. Mom knew exactly what them kids were about and did nothing to show them anything better.
Please do not annoy us with facts
Sadly it’s ppl like u that would think it’s gang related because they are black and can’t take pictures with popular poses! U do remember that it’s the holiday season and thugs are hungry ! 🤔 if it was a lil white fam ur hat would be off and would have sympathy

@@hisexcellencytrump855 he threw up west side. Not a gang sign at all.
Kids showing be throwing up ANYTHING! And human in their right mind don’t take pictures like this..
True
@Amanda Vaughn he could've been gang affiliated the other son was wearing red you don't have to be in a gang to be gang affiliated you could be a friend of a gang member, you're cousin in a gang, your gf in a gang etc
If the parent says she doesn’t know why, it’s because she doesn’t want to know! But she knows why. Period.
Exactly
They all members look at they picture
Gangs
Yes she does know why they were shot,and some killed.what ever this reason she's stuck here alive to deal with it.
Parents need to be more aware of what is going on with their kids.
May God give her peace, healing, and strength 🙏🏾
My condolences to the family whoever did this will pay
So I'm guessing the news "couldn't find" any wholesome pictures of the victims... They have to show "street pics". The news does this alot to young black men. Does anybody else notice this?
Maybe there were no wholesome pictures.
or maybe there weren't any wholesome pictures...
Those pictures are probably the most wholesome, they had.
Mothers and fathers, keep your kids out of these streets. I feel for the mom and the entire family. But it's obvious that this is gang related, they throwing up gang signs in the photos.
More to this story indeed 🤔🤔🤔 so much evil 👿 just like the Bible says about the last days, an increase in violence, just as the days of Noah. My heart ❤️ breaks for this mother and her children. Lord Jesus fix it!
🙏🏼
Very sad to hear these story's but why do so many kids keep taking Pictures with Gang signs with their hands, Gangs are for Cowards who can't stand Alone.
Ok what's missing in this story ???.....how did one of the suspects get killed ????
Shows the distress of her loss by throwing up gang signs.
Sad to say it but , throwing up gang signs probably explains everything 🙄
That's so heartbreaking I cant imagine the hurt and pain ,I feel so bad for her
Rip. Not safe at 🏠🏠🏠🏠 home. Do not answer your door
Look through curtain. Have your heat. Rip

@@Lynnleemattos I could be wrong. She seemed to not understand that her kid's are gone. She's talking about being injured not shot. To me that's suspect.
Throwing gang signs it is pretty cut and dry what happened.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Prayers for you and your family. ❤️❤️❤️
I feel sorry for the loss of life, BUT, I admit when you say more than once, “no matter the reason or what’s going on,”I shouldn’t have to bury my kids, That makes me suspect that Mom ain’t telling everything & then when I hear one of the suspects died too. Sounds like somebody in the house was “half ready”for the smoke. I COULD BE WRONG & I own that in advance. I’m also NOT JUDGING by any means, but I hope if Mom knows more, that she reveals it & help stop the violence like she said. Praying for the family. Only GOD can judge, I just make observations. Lastly, even if it is something they caused, being that age, it was a product of what they were being raised in. Just my opinion, not looking to defend or offend anyone.
She knows her sons were involved in some mess. Doesn’t mean they deserved death, but your analysis may be more accurate than you think.
If you Google the mom, you'll see that she had a lengthy criminal history including, driving with a suspended license, possessions charge, gun charge, etc. If mom was wrapped up in that lifestyle, the kids likely were following a similar path. Especially, considering the fathers of these two boys were not involved in their lives.
This was definitely wrong of the shooters to enter their home to kill them. But as parents, we need to take some level of accountability.
My radar came on at the fact that someone tried to kill ALL of her children and succeeded at 2 of them but she’s still standing 🧐
Why did someone just shoot them?
Somethings missing here.
We need to pray for the youth!
Lord, Lord, Lord 😢 please look and have mercy on this family 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
It's actually pretty heart breaking cause I used to live on a appartment when it was late 2020 they started shooting and gangs started live fighting there and been lots of people died so we moved in 2021 on a day in April
But I'm glad my family was safe not a lot of people gets there family safe like this one 😢
My Condolences to you and your family. Praying for ya'll
Deepest condolences..and a speedy recovery to the other children!
No father in sight….
My prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏, I can not even imagine dat heartbreak. My condolences. Asking God to grant you comfort in abundance during your time of grief and bereavement.
Report it how you want but this not random, i lost a son to the streets and im the first one to say he was not perfect, of course he didnt deserve to die but he was in the streets. It wasnt lack of parenting, broken home etc. He chose to be in the streets. We have to accept accountability and take action because we killing ourselves with this new culture. Rip to everyone
I’m so sorry to your loss! I pray for comfort, strength, peace and the will to live
I'm sorry for her loss and for her other kids who got injured! ❤️❤️❤️ I hope for the day to come, when kids don't see certain things as cool around them , and leave it where it is, and just because they may live in a neighborhood with a certain mentality, doesn't mean they should adapt that behavior! Throwing up any sign but the peace sign, just may have a gun attached to it!❤️
This is really sad no one has the rights to pick up a gun and enter into your home and shoot up your family. But I was wondering was this some type of retaliation or gang related because of the photo. Our young people needs to understand what they do in the streets effect your family. My thoughts and prayers goes out to the mother and surviving children and the family.
What was the age of the suspect killed?
The reporter stated the suspect who was killed is 29 year old Christian Johnson.
Were those gang signs in the picture? Dont know. Just asking.
I wonder if that had something to do with it.
Obviously
Man this just made me cry like omg wth im praying for this family
This is heartbreaking my God r.i.p to them prayers for all of them
May blessings and peace uplift this beautiful black woman in her time of grief
Prayers for the family
No father in sight, men stop making these children and not being there for them.
Gang associated ? Hand signs are for what group ?
THIS MAKES YOU SO MAD, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO START DOING STAYING UP AND WATCHING AROUND OUR OWN HOUSE AND BE READY WHENEVER THEY COME IN WITH OUR WEAPONS
No. I hate to write this, but you will probably find that one or both of those young men were involved in something they should not have been. It’s rare that someone runs up in your home with guns for nothing. Furthermore, everyone was shot. That sounds like a botched execution. Whoever it was tried to take out the whole family.
Praying for you and your family and friends 💔😭🙏
Ain't no way in hell I can speak on TV for the news cameras. I would be to distraught and devastated to even speak let alone stand after what happened to myself and kids. And I'm just curious with one of her sons fingers is that gang signs or something else.
5 kids looking like she 30.. she'll jus replace them with more unknown fathers and have the streets raise them for her.
Drug deal gone bad.
They are throwing up gang signs. Come on!
What brought that energy to her door?
Who killed one of the suspects?
Her husband must be devastated.
Seriously?!
My heart goes out to her sorry for your loss
This is heartbreaking 😭😭😤😡
My heart goes out to the family sorry for your loss
Praying for this entire family.
STOP THE VIOLENCE! LOVE LIFE NOT DEATH!
The best pictures are them throwing gang signs?? What does that tell you?
One of the suspects was also shot and killed? They ain't give enough details about that... Who shot him? This mother knows something.
My god my god my heart is with you ma’am that hurt my heart I’m at loss for words my prayers and thoughts to you
Man my heart breaks for her. My deepest condolences may your babies RIP 🙏🏼
Jesus give that mother and her family strength
No father, no discipline. The two that were shot and killed looked like bad guys. And, I am sure the mother thought all her kids were angels. Smh This was NOT random. Many single mothers really struggle raising boys. It is a very hard gig without a good, strong male presence around. Very tragic.
This is absolutely heartbreaking.. May they RIP ❤️💐
Prayers for you 🙏❤
