WATCH: Sen. Ossoff is introducing the Fresh Food Act, which would cut taxes for grocery stores that open and sell fresh food in underserved areas that lack access to fresh, healthy food.
When you’ve been through a lot of stuff you realize how important respect is. And it’s not about demanding respect from everyone. It’s about not engaging with people who don’t respect you.
So I read up on this case.
The man Collins hit has been harassing him, his wife, and his children for MONTHS.
Here is the part where the justice system isn't just for everyone. After Collins hit him for assaulting his wife and kids (justifiable), the guy didn't die on the spot.
He died weeks later because he refused to go to the hospital to get checked out. The Prosecutors STILL decided to charge him with murder. Collins being fearful a jury would send him to jail for life for protecting his family took a plea deal instead.
I am going to hold your hand when I say this:
Stop forcing children to hug people. It’s a level of discomfort that can be traumatizing for their developing nervous system.
