FailureToCommunicate's Journal
April 27, 2021
Some high school friends and I gave a few dollars to a homeless guy, and moments later...
a police car pulled over and two cops jumped out and slammed all of us again the car.
They accused us of buying drugs from the guy.
I started to argue with them, but my friends, who were Black, hissed "Just shut up, you'll make it worse!"
Glad to see this video of this act of empathy and kindness turned out much better.
