Two teenagers, Najee Thomas and Michael Mayfield, were shot this past week in Baltimore. Najee was 14 and Michael was 17. According to reports<\/a>, “Michael was passionate about the Junior ROTC, band and the Inner Harbor Project. He played for the Edmondson High School baseball team.” Najee worked<\/a> at a smoothie stand in Camden Yards and dreamed of being a lawyer.<\/p>\n

I’m sure all reading this join me in expressing deepest condolences to their families.<\/p>\n
