And another mass murder is escorted by police while black kids and unarmed black men and women

are shot and killed or choked to death by police for no legitimate reason. This shit is maddening. And every G-D excise is being sought so this killer can be turned into a victim. My head is bursting and my heart is breaking for the families of those murdered in CO today. When will it stop? Will it ever stop? Gun control must be the next big thing after voting rights. Sick to death of this shit!

Living on a island is challenging, but if you have the bucks, it’s pretty much okay. And folks are more friendly. And smile more, etc.

as it should be. However it only seems to work that way for white gunmen. That needs to change.

One of the cops even checked on his leg, while walking him in handcuffs. Black peoples complain they can’t breathe, but the cops kill them. I did not even see the white guy complain, but they checked on him! That’s some pretty big BS right there.

Making sure he got on the stretcher alright.

No rough handling. No dragging him. No rushing him. No hog tieing and carrying him out up by his arms. Not even yelling or anything. Looked like they were in no rush and were just walking with an old friend or something.

The difference in treatment is jarring. It disgusts me.
