    Yo, lemme help you out.

    If you weren’t saying shit about George Floyd before the protests… or Breonna Taylor or Ahmaud Arbery or any of the litany of people killed by police for no fucking reason…

    Don’t expect me to give a single fuck about you fretting over someone’s property.

    At what point does “fuck around and find out” begin to sink in. At what point does “no justice, no peace” sink in???

    And please don’t try and lecture about “only the peaceful care about George Floyd”. That’s just bullshit. It ignores the reality of systemic BRUTALIZATION of black and brown bodies since before this nation’s founding.

    We supposed to slow walk justice, but sprint to defend property? FUCK. ALL. THAT. NOISE.

    Sorry, but you seriously need to watch some James Baldwin and Malcolm X on YouTube. I’d give some reading, but YT is more accessible and it’s a start.

    Not recommending any MLK right now because he’s been so whitewashed and chopped up that it’s hard to get to his actual message and especially his LATER stuff…like the SECOND March on Washington that specifically addressed economic issues, the war in Vietnam, etc.

    The minute he started down that road of class solidarity, he was murdered.

    But yeah, for real, not trying to hear that nonsense right now.

    Sports is the crucible of human virtue. The distillate remains are human vice.

    Yeah, when they bring the guillotines, then protests DO shit…for real.

    He has since been released, but has now had his tires slashed and windows broken in his home.

    Two of the charged cops, apparently, were very new, and essentially being trained.
