Nov 2015

but I'm looking at the fact that my feeling that the accusation(s) COULD be true about these individuals does not end up in summary execution for these poor maligned and unjustly accused individuals. Rush to judgement? Damn right! Fair? No. But I have not seen much fairness exhibited by many here, since just say August 2014 in a lot of the so called progressives and liberals related to accusations and summary executions of POC by our, usually white badge wearing and gun toting authorities. Here it was usually said by a certain group, always, that they were thuggish, had criminal records, not compliant enough and these words related to the DEATH of unarmed people. Don't insult me with your protestations of offense at my rush to judgement about these people accused. I DO NOT FEEL ANY REMORSE about the fact that these accusations could have been true and that I believed them. Too many racists in america to not take something like this seriously.
