My lil cousin is a REALLY good kid & had so many colleges coming to his Highschool games to recruit him for football. Scholarships being offered left & right 👏🏾 sadly a week before he went to move into his dorm he was randomly targeted & then brutally punched at LEAST six times by rookie NYPD officer Darelle Ervin (Badge: 17750) of the 23rd precinct in Spanish Harlem 😢 😡… my cousin is still recovering from his injuries day by day now safely on campus 🙏🏾
Police violently beat Hispanic man—because he hurt their feelings.
Body slam him to ground—repeatedly punch his face.
"Cop attacked him because of something said that he didn't like," said witness.
"Any normal person would obviously try to block someone from punching them."
"Irrelevant whatever he said—learn your constitutional rights!" another witness said.
"Even if they had reason to apprehend him this is excessive use of force!"
The incident occurred in Santa Ana, California.

The whole point of this circus is to ascend. Earth gave you trauma, lust, ego, money, fear, exes, taxes and algorithms, and you still think the mission is to get comfortable? Fam, how many side quests do you need before you clock the main one?
Earth is basically spiritual GTA. Temptation everywhere, random boss fights, people trying to rob your energy, and half the population still thinks the mission is get a mortgage and die politely.
The game is simple. Master yourself, stop getting baited by every impulse, learn what the fuck you are, then ascend. People turned the tutorial into a 70-year side quest.
Imagine reincarnating 12 times just to keep falling for lust, ego, money and people’s opinions. Brother, complete the fucking level.
You got dropped into a body with desires, fear, trauma, hormones, ego and free will, then surrounded by distractions 24/7. And people still can’t work out there might be a test going on. Comedy.
Life keeps sending the same lesson wearing different faces and people keep calling it bad luck. Fam, at some point you’ve gotta pass the fucking exam.
The wildest part is people think the goal is comfort. Nothing about this place looks designed for comfort. It looks like a spiritual obstacle course
You came here naked, leave with nothing, and somehow people think the whole point was collecting shit in between. Mad
Beautiful moment siblings surprised their big brother, who stepped up as both their father and mother after their parents passed away, sponsored their education, helped them relocate abroad, and even sponsored their weddings. ❤️
$SPCH Bought it on Monday and didn't average in. called out 11 and didn't get in due to some projects that I am working on. Came out with minimal profit. Sometimes knowing something will hit doesn't mean you go all out.
Some of y’all are really upset because I have WHITE children in my program. It’s been constant in my DMs etc.
And I’m not apologizing for helping a child.
You can debate race, privilege and politics all day. I’m dealing with actual children standing in front of me who need guidance, structure, skills and people who care about them.
When they walk through my doors, they’re MY boys.
They’re going to learn. They’re going to be challenged. They’re going to be corrected. And they’re going to be loved.
I’ve had to grow and challenge some of my own prejudices over the years too.
But one thing I know now: a child’s skin color will NEVER be my reason for refusing to pour into him.
