Gwinnett Boy Shot While Riding Bike; Does His Black Life Matter?

Ni-Shawn Moore

6-year-old Ni-Shawn Moore was shot off his bicycle on a warm, sunny day as he rode near his home in Gwinnett County, GA on March 13.

Police say someone approached Ni-Shawn, right, and shot him point blank in the chest with a 22-caliber weapon.

Little Ni-Shawn could pass for singer Keyshia Cole‘s son, Daniel Hiram Gibson Jr., also age 6.

A 911 dispatch operator tried to talk a woman through the first aid procedure of applying a pressure bandage to Ni-Shawn’s wound. But the boy was in so much pain that he refused to let her touch him.

In another 911 recording, a frantic woman tells police the boy’s father and a group of men showed up at her home and threatened her.

The woman was hosting a backyard BBQ when Ni-Shawn was shot at about 6:18 p.m.

She said she didn’t know who shot him.

“I don’t know these people,” she told the dispatcher. “They came over with a big group, and we’re having a party. And they’re saying somebody shot their kid, and they’re going to come back and handle it.”

Ni-Shawn was discharged from Children’s Healthcare last week, but police say they have no lead on the suspect who shot him.

Which begs the question: where is Black Lives Matter? Do black lives only matter when they can be used as pawns to make political statements?

Would the suspect be caught by now if Ni-Shawn’s black life mattered?

Thank you to the AJC.com for keeping the spotlight on this story. The AJC has written 3 articles so far on Ni-Shawn. Imagine the hoopla on Black urban blogs and media if Ni-Shawn had been shot by a white cop.

Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to call Gwinnett police at 770-513-5300 or Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS. A $2,000 reward is being offered for information. You can remain anonymous.

Sandy, of course his life matters, however stop taking away from what Black Lives Matter was created for. We all know that when this boy’s shooters are caught, they will be prosecuted and convicted. This is not so when an officer shoots, or harms/kills a black person. Don’t do that and become a part of the idiots who are trying to down play this movement, the same way they have downplayed any and all Black movements, whether they were good or bad. At one time, they tried to make the Civil Rights movement a negative, because it meant holding them accountable for their atrocious and heinous acts. If you are not a part of the solution, you are a part of the problem.

Glad he is ok I hope they find the thug or thugs who did this. I hate when people involve children for other people faults.

Never mind “where” BLM is… WHERE are the missing pieces to this story? Where was his family when he was shot? Why would they threaten a woman who was trying to save the child? So many questions… God bless this baby!

what does a gang shooting have to do with tax paid police officers executing citizens. we hire police to find and detain whomever committed this crime. stupid people like Sandra will condemn a movement to protect us from the police. stupid arse boot licking mamma

Gwinnett Boy Shot While Riding Bike; Does His Black Life Matter?
Which begs the question: where is Black Lives Matter?
——————————-
Was he unarmed and shot by the Police?
Was he dragged out of his car, hand cuffed and managed to die in jail?
Was he walking home with some skittles and a can of tea? Was his mother given the run around by the police who knew her child was in the morgue?
Was his shooting tapped on cell video and redistributed so we can call for justice?

Please ask Gwinnett County if his Black Life mattered, since there were a gang of people with the suspect and at the party and there is no lead. Ask the people at the party if his black life mattered since they “saw nothing”

*deep sigh* Ummm… anyTHING that’s out here shooting innocent babies, needs to be put down. I don’t care what color it is, and, sorry to say, but at this point I don’t care what may have happened to cause you to become the monster that you are. At this point, maybe it’s too late to save you. That’s unfortunate, but it that is the reality, then we need to do something to prevent the perpetual spread of this evil. Don’t they euthanize rabid animals?

Disgusting
understandingoverignorance

The BLM movement would gain a ton of more traction if they would protest senseless violence experienced on a daily basis by Black folks around this country.

BLM shouldn’t just be for when cops do wrong but when chit like this goes down because these are the crimes that lower the perception of Black communities nation wide.

But the boy was in so much pain that he refused to let her touch him.

Come on. You know what the movement is about. Inequality as it pertains to injustice within the black community. You know this Sandra. Stop it man.

“Black Lives Matter (BLM) is an international activist movement, originating in the African-American community, that campaigns against violence toward black people. BLM regularly organizes protests around the deaths of black people in killings by law enforcement officers, and broader issues of racial profiling, police brutality, and racial inequality in the United States criminal justice system.”

This is why I call BLACK FOLKS — City .

We have BLACK FOLKS saying Black on Black crime is not important.

IT’S MOST IMPORTANT…we killing ourselves…
Deno Spencer

Thank God he is going to be ok. Wtf!! Why would any one want to hurt a child. Go kill yourself if your thinkn of hurting a child. Just kill yourself
On some black people…. This guy on my block had his car hit by this truck last year. I walked down to talk to the guy as my car was hit to. The idiot walked out and he and his boys was about to fight me thinkn I did it until the Neihbor told him it was someone else. No questions just was about to fight. Hmmmmm
Sandra brings a great question…. Do black lives matter to black people? We can kill ourselves but dammit if someone else does
Pray he will be ok with no lasting damage
Carrington

I’m on both ends of this… on the one hand, I absolutely get why people who are completely detached from black America (and Sandra) want to know where the #blacklivesmatter movement is and why there is no community outcry when there are senseless crimes like this within the community because, for the most part, either there is no outcry – or there’s a concerted effort within the media to ignore it so that there is an impression that there is none. I’m going to go with the fact that there is no huge outcry for babies who are killed within their own communities vs when police kill one of our “babies”… I think the shock is the same.
The outrage is the same. But the marching. The demands for justice and the evidence videos are pretty much non-existent. And that’s pretty sad. We have a “Stop Snitching” campaign that only applies to police killing black folk. And it’s pretty sad.
On the other hand, it pisses me off that people act like they don’t know what the #Blacklivesmatter campaign is ABOUT. It’s not about only caring about black lives. For one, we already know that most of the other lives already matter. The issue I think that most people have is in the verbiage – verbiage that I don’t think should be changed to pacify MF’s who have a clear understanding of what it means to begin with. We don’t think we’re more important. We don’t think that other lives don’t matter. We don’t want to stand out in a sea of other nationalities as the golden child. We want people to know that we matter TOO. So, stop killing us and thinking we’re just going to accept it as if we DON’T. That’s IT.
Neicey

OK…I am glad Sandra posted this as it’s close to me and I had not heard about it. On the other hand. WTH! It was a hard read and confusing. But the little boys father went to someone else house and threatened them for shooting his son.

In another call to 911 a woman. Blahh…..

I had to read it fifty eleven times. But I think I got it.

I guarantee he was shot by a white man.

What makes you think the person who shot him was black?
Fendi

Please ignore him. He is a resident troll from MTO’s forum. He exists to perpetuate racist stereotypes and hatred against Black women primarily, but Black people in general. He claims to be a Black Jewish male who has a white gf. Someone disclosed his true identity, and he is more unfortunate than missing a winning lottery by one number.
stanley

The kid is so cute!! Who would shoot a beautiful kid? smh
Fendi

I hope Keyshia Cole sees you’ve used her son’s photo and sends you a C&D letter. You have a problem. This is the second child you’ve targeted today. Both of the children are light skinned Black males with mothers who are successful recording artists. There’s no way in hell I would ever want my child’s image rendered next to that of another child, of no relation, who was hurt or killed.

Side note: Gawker was ordered to pay $25 million in punitive damages re: the unauthorized release of Hulk Hogan’s sex tape. As another commenter stated earlier, bloggers need to pay close attention to that case. When you come for the wrong person or people, you may end up going out-of-business. Tread lightly.

Thank you Sandrarose! I’m glad you get it. Black folks get hard down mad when you bring up this subject. All hell breaks loose when white cops kill blacks, but how dare you talk about black on black crime. Its like they’re saying its okay as long as We kill Us.

“…I have nothing.” Watch what you project onto innocent children, or you may end up with nothing. God don’t like ugly. Meanwhile…

Here u go cooning
Don’t make excuses for our genocide
We have to do better but black lives still matter
Rose, what you’re doing is another form of divide and conquer. It’s a tactic to disunity us and create hostility and inferiority.

85% of white people that are killed in America were murdered by another white person yet no one screams “I thought all white lives mattered tho”

I’m glad he’s doing okay. We are killing each other the same way another other race yet ours is magnified because no other race has suffered the same atrocities as black peoples. However, we have to break the chain of mental and psychological abuse. We have to wake up and We can and must do better without the shade smh
eyeseeall

But I bet Sandy benefits from the hard work, blood sweat and tears from the civil rights movement then wants to downplay black lives matter smh
barbeez

I’m glad he’s recovering. We are the only race that kills each other…period. When will we ever drop this slave mentality? Ghetto ridden…killing each other…robbing and raping. Really? What other race preys on its own kind? Not even animals do this. It just makes me sick.

Deep sigh yes black lives matter. This seems to be the rebuttal as to why those who job it is to protect and serve kill unarmed men and women in America.?I wonder why during school shootings or other white on white crime no one calls it that. It’s just a tragedy which this is?Prayers up for this baby.

At no point in American History has the white man ever valued black life so your point is mute. They never will so don’t ever expect them to.
Noirluv45

You beat me to it! I was in mid-sentence before I saw your reply.
Noirluv45

That is the most ridiculous and ignorant statement I have ever read. Really? Seriously? You’ve never known White people to kill other Whites; Asians to kill other Asians; Mexicans to kill other Mexicans? If you, you either aren’t from this planet or you’ve had your head buried in the sand. I suggest you wake up and live a bit longer. When you do, you’ll realize that MOST crime is committed INTRARACIALLY.
shaylynnn

No we’re not, we’re just the only ones you know about. A quick Google search will show you yt on yt crime is 89% & crime is inevitable. That’s reality. People comit crimes in their neighborhoods because that’s where they’re comfortable & they know the area. It’s common sense. They know the people/area so they feel the can get away with it.

You don’t know who shot him, so why all the #BLM dragging? I swear Samuel Jackson’s ‘Django Unchained’ character ain’t got nothin’ on you.
Branch Davidian

The problem is not BLM, which is not very effective in my opinion. The problem is that Black deaths at the hands of other Blacks are not politically expedient to the mainstream media. They only cover stories that are intended to stoke anger and divide people. This = ratings. Anybody else wonder why the coverage of the St Louis church fires stopped when they found out a Black man did it? We need to wake up and stop drinking the media kool aid
