Joshua Woods was a hardworking, well mannered, and responsible 22 year old man who one morning drove to the mall to purchase a new pair of Air Jordan's sneakers. After purchasing the sneakers, Joshua and his friend were attacked by three other young men who subsequently shot Joshua in an attempt to rob him of his sneakers. Joshua would go on to die from the gunshot wound he received. It is so tragic to think that a human life was taken over a pair of sneakers. Joshua's story however is not rare. Across the country there are violent crimes and murders taking place over sneakers, clothes, and jewelry. We are taking a stand to fight against these senseless, malicious, and careless acts of violence. Please sign this petition so that we can get this story to President Obama and make a change!
