    ‘I’m not sad. I’m not sorry. I’m angry. And I’m tired. I haven’t cried one time. I stopped crying years ago. I am numb. I have been watching police murder people that look like me for years.’

    It's almost as if "they" aren't doing anything except tweeting hash tags.

    Somewhat lost in the recent murderous developments is the utter failure of the policing in the actual incident where Jacob Blake was shot. A bunch of cops letting a clearly agitated man walk around while following him with guns drawn, letting him walk to his car open the door and then decide to shoot him seven times in the back. You really couldn't figure out a way to prevent that happening? I mean even if you can't police your way around that, which they and almost all the rest of the violent, heavily armed doughnut-chomping, steroid freaks can't, I thought that was what Tazers were for? You were all "Oh, we need the non-lethal option, we don't want to shoot people" when you wanted those.
