Saw this on Ride bmx.
This kid was shot by his friend after being picked at random to be killed as part of a gang initiation. He survived and lived to tell the tale.

He has a pretty inspirational approach to life all told.

Jesus, that is shocking stuff. He is one strong kid to have pulled through such a traumatic experience, and come out with such a balanced view of the world.

Best of luck to him.

Second amendment man, right to bear arms. god bless USA.

Obviously this wouldn't have happened if he was armed. Clearly they need more guns.

interesting how Ross said he used his ability to learn skating tricks to keep trying through his therapy / rehabilation.

Just watched it too.
Incredible that he survived that attack at all never mind that he appears almost recovered and able to calmly talk about it.

Brave kid!
