A bunch a highschool friends were out one night after and we all felt very sad about what happened. This is the second person that went to the same highschool that has been killed...the police need to crack down on this big time. Loyan was a fun loving guy that you could talk to, get advice from, or just joke around with. He had alot going for him. My condolences go out to his family and everyone that knew him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1124030265573104292005-08-14T10:37:00.000-04:002005-08-14T10:37:00.000-04:00At the same time, we should know that Allah guides...At the same time, we should know that Allah guides whom He wills <BR/><BR/><BR/>Nicely put, that sums it all... coz no matter what a parent does or an individual does its all up to the Will of Allah as to what is really going to happen.<BR/><BR/>U must be really strict with your parents! :PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1123975649664935922005-08-13T19:27:00.000-04:002005-08-13T19:27:00.000-04:00I'm not denying that parents have a HUGE influence...I'm not denying that parents have a HUGE influence on the way their children behave or how they turn out when they reach adulthood.<BR/><BR/>What I'm saying is that we, the children, need to snap ourselves out of this idiotic cycle of making bad decisions. We need to put more effort into our self-development. We can't always rely on our parents to spoon-feed us everything we need to know - they are only humans and can make mistakes sometimes.<BR/><BR/>I look at my parents, and I love and admire them, but I know they have made mistakes. <BR/><BR/>At the same time, we should know that Allah guides whom He wills - if He wills that the son of the most religious parents becomes a kaffir, then it's going to happen.Asmaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799829085959558569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1123974557042165262005-08-13T19:09:00.000-04:002005-08-13T19:09:00.000-04:00I agree with what u are saying Asmaa...but the ot...I agree with what u are saying Asmaa...but the other kid who died was 19 so what about his case?<BR/><BR/>>I truly believe in being >responsible for one's own actions.<BR/><BR/>You're making it sound like parents have no say in all this. Yes every decision we make is our own decision but you have to realize; do you think if your parents were not religious would this not have negatively affected you?. There are religious kids of non-religious parents too, but the chances of lets say a daughter of a non-hijabi mom has higher chances not to wear the hijab than one whose mom wears the hijab...<BR/>(This is not always the case, but the odds do favor what I said)<BR/><BR/>So whatever decisions we make is our own, but our parents do influence those decisions.<BR/><BR/><BR/>As I mentioned in my previous post its not like I'm blaming parents but there are cases where parents should do more to get involved in their kid's lives (see who their friends are, who the kids hang around with, etc)<BR/><BR/>My point also meant to focus on our own decisions and the lifestyle we choose for ourselves. Such shooting incidents usually have a pattern i.e. often at clubs, hangouts, bars etc & at late hours of the night. <BR/><BR/>So one can avoid such a lifestyle in order to lead a more safer/better life <BR/>(don't stay out too late!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1123966289552991292005-08-13T16:51:00.000-04:002005-08-13T16:51:00.000-04:00Dodo, you make it sound a lot less complicated tha...Dodo, you make it sound a lot less complicated than it is. I mean, sometimes it's just not in the hands of parents. <BR/><BR/>This man was 23 years old and was capable of making his own decisions. I truly believe in being responsible for one's own actions. Of course, parents should definitely advise and try their best to keep their children out of harm's way. But there comes a point when young adults just have to make conscious choices about their behaviour...Asmaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799829085959558569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1123941351920113972005-08-13T09:55:00.000-04:002005-08-13T09:55:00.000-04:00I have a question for all on this;How can teens st...I have a question for all on this;<BR/><BR/>How can teens stay out so late?<BR/>Don't the parents do something about this?<BR/><BR/>Not to blame parents, but I'm just asking what can be done to prevent this?<BR/><BR/>Most of the shooting deaths that have occured take place in the wee hours of the night after 11pm till early hours of the morning (this particular incident took place at 4.30am)<BR/><BR/>Anyone know an affective way of not letting kids stay out so late?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1123912007408337692005-08-13T01:46:00.000-04:002005-08-13T01:46:00.000-04:00Inna Lilahi Wa Inna Alaihi RajioonInna Lilahi Wa Inna Alaihi RajioonModest Hijabihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837718488049148708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-1123902034768486062005-08-12T23:00:00.000-04:002005-08-12T23:00:00.000-04:00I totally called you on Thursday to go running, ar...I totally called you on Thursday to go running, around 2.
