What could have been - Mortal Kombat: The Animated Series.

We did get Defenders of the Realm, but I feel a darker, more mature animated series would have been ideal.

In fact, I can see the series airing on HBO alongside the Spawn animated series.

@Holiistically @wipe_me_down She killed her own child and didn’t get 35 years, an innocent baby.🤷🏽‍♀️

[HolisticallyMáat🖤🇺🇸🌍🦆 @Holiistically]

She killed two boys with intent. Got 15 years.

This is what we mean when we say America has a different legal system for black people

[🦂THEE Auntie with no kids♏️ @prmade313raised]

Black people are held to a higher standard than every other race. We’re expected to be perfect, while others are given grace, excuses, and second chances. One mistake by a Black person gets used to judge an entire community, but the actions of individuals from other groups are rarely used to define their whole race. The double standard has always been there.

Meanwhile the Redneck hillbilly that tried to assault him was constantly suspended from school and was previously kicked off that track team ………….

Same state. Different justice.

2023: Alec Adamson (Prosper, TX) shoots & kills a Black student, leads police on car chase + foot pursuit.
Sentence: 4 years. Served: 2.

2025: Karmelo (Frisco, TX) gets jumped by white students, defends himself with a knife.
Sentence: 35 years.

Tell me this isn’t two-tiered justice.

[Mia💋 @MIZLOW17]

if Austin Killed Karmelo he would’ve got off !

[tony parker @tonyparker32]

It’s only self defense when a black kid dies

[We Ain’t Got It. @BrokePhiBroke_]

I hope they burn some shit down.

[Isaac Hayes III @IsaacHayes3]

The Karmelo Anthony verdict shows that the justice system has reverted back to the Jim Crow South era.

It is no longer about evidence.

It is no longer about right or wrong.

It is about keeping racial score through the prosecution and imprisonment of Black people.

It was no surprise that an all white jury would find a 19 year old kid, who was bullied and harassed by two 6’1” bullies, guilty of murder while he was minding his business.

We have seen this story before.

A young Black man is put on trial, and somehow the burden shifts from what happened to him, to why he should not have defended himself.

The facts become secondary.

The optics become everything.

The outcome feels predetermined long before the verdict is read.

People will tell you not to make it about race.

But race has always been part of the story in America.

The hard truth is that many Black people no longer believe they will receive the benefit of the doubt when their freedom is on the line.

And verdicts like this are exactly why.

At some point, we have to stop pretending that everyone is playing by the same set of rules.

Because the people watching this case saw something very different than what that jury claimed to see.

Another Black person’s life ruined by the criminal justice system. This crooked society doesn’t know the first thing about justice.

Black people deserve better.

38 years ago today, New Edition dropped “If It Isn’t Love” 🔥

The lead single from their fifth album Heart Break. It peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and showed the group’s smooth evolution from teen idols to grown R&B kings.

That perfect blend of catchy hooks, tight harmonies, and late-80s New Jack Swing bounce.

The first black actor, Lee Thompson Young, to have his own live-action hit series on Disney Channel.

The first live-action Disney Channel original series to get its own movie.
