I think the boys that done this to jimmy are the most evilest people on this planet. All because Jimmy was the bigger person and stepped away from a fight. Jimmy had his whole life ahead of him so many things to do and achive. See the people that go around killing others obviously have no future.
My thoughts are with Jimmys family
RIP JIMM

It'd be nice to think that poor Jimmy's death (like all the others before him) would force the Government and other authorities to act decisively but Gordon Brown and his ilk are too busy looking after themselves to care about the lives of our young people.
As for the parents of the all the young thugs involved in this sort of thing, when are they going to accept their share of the responsibility for the actions of their offspring?

My heart goes out to you and you are in my prayers. I pray that Jesus the prince of peace will comfort you the way that only He can as this tragic theft of life is almost unimaginable and must be so painful for you. I used to work at St Thomas More RC school a year ago however I'm not sure if I met Jimmy but his face does seem familiar to me. It breaks my heart that such wickedness and evil exists amongst people in this world. Again I pray that God's peace be with you.

My heart goes out to you. He seemed like such a lovely young boy. I never new him however i did see him in Eltham a few times. He would never hurt a fly. He seemed like a gentle giant.
I hope his killer is caught and punished just like Jimmy was. He is a hero and you should be proud.
Jimmy:
Hope you rest in peace up there. Your the brightest star in that sky and your family know that your watching them
All my love

My heartfelt condolences go out to his mum dad and siblings. You have shown such courage in the way you are dealing with this horrific situation.
Something needs to be done with broken Britain before another mother, father, brother or sister loses someone in their family.
Three killings in London this week its disgraceful. Our government should be ashamed.
Rest in Peace Jimmy ****
