"It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets... I'm a former police officer, a former Army officer. These M4s, AR-15s, they've got to get off the streets or this is going to keep happening" - Allen, TX mall shooting witness Steven Spainhouer tells @CapehartJ on @weekendcapehart
This is why we say #BlackLivesMatter I’d say this footage is unbelievable to see and hear but my Master’s degree in History won’t let me. So I’ll say it again for the people in the back: BLACK.👏🏻LIVES.👏🏻MATTER.👏🏻
A reminder that police choose to be violent towards us. Choose to kill us. Choose to support and enable white supremacists. They must be held accountable for these choices.

Seems like censorship, no? I say today is as “real-word connection” as it gets.
Just to be very clear about this, it's not JUST the violence or the breach & occupation of a public building that makes this a crisis. It's the fact that it was directed by the president, specifically to disrupt the vote counting that would formally certify his elected successor.
