This Is Why We're Mad About the Shooting of Mike Brown

[locdlib]

41. For me it's way beyond being mad, pissed, disgusted.

I don't know if there is a word that exists that can describe how I feel about this country. This place that allows things like this to happen and does absolutely nothing. The attitude is that black people need to figure out a way to avoid being killed. Because the color of your skin makes you kill-able. The unidentified shooter is on desk duty while they investigate his murdering an unarmed teenager. In broad daylight. For walking. That young man's body laid out in the street for several hours while "evidence was being collected." My heart grieves for his family. It keeps happening because nothing is ever done. And since nothing is ever done it will continue to happen until something drastic happens. Black life has no worth in amerikkka. I will not stand up for a country that not only wants to sit on me, it wants to kill me because of my skin color. Not because of anything I say or do, but because of my skin color. Amerikkka is not beautiful. It is shameful.
