A teen is pronounced dead after being beaten to death at a house party in Georgia. 18 year old Bobby Tillman was just passing through the room at the party when he was targeted by four men and beaten to death. Tillman did not know the people who attacked him. The fight started with a man and a woman fighting and the woman hit the man. The man said that he wouldn't hit her back, but he would hit the next man that walked by. Sadly, Tillman was that next man. Tillman's family mourned over his body and the memories that were brought to the funeral. His funeral brought a message to teens that violence is not okay and that you must stand up to it.
I think that this is a sad article. This sort of thing happens all the time and all over the world. Teens and just people in general should be aware of things like this. It's a growing problem and people should take a stand. That guy didn't have to die. He could have lived and continued on having a good life and making more memories, but because of the people at that party, he was murdered. That girl shouldn't have even hit the other guy to begin with. She had another choice that she could have made. She should have just walked away, but the guy had a choice too. He could have chose to walk away from that girl and continued on with his night. Just because he did the right thing by not hitting that girl doesn't give him the right to take it out on an innocent bystander. Tillman didn't even know any of those people that beat him to death and that is what is really sad about this story. He did nothing wrong all he was doing was passing through and he was attacked by a bunch of strangers that thought it would be okay to take their anger out on the next person who walked by. I think everyone at that party should have stood up and stopped it. Everyone has a voice and everybody at that party should have used their voices to take a stand and stop the violence. If they had, then this guy would still be alive today. Everyone has a choice to do the right thing. I think this was horrible that not one person at that party tried to reach out and help that guy. My heart goes out to his family.
