So brutal. Such a waste of a good young man's life. I still don't know what to say about that one.

It was long overdue for much of that Kryptic Kangaroo Kourt "justice" got upended and prevented now.
Absolutely sickens me realizing there are MAGA'S who support bringing all that bigoted murder marauding back in Jeebus holy name and think they're accomplishing something.
