@_mcchris Midtown Global Market is one of my favorite places. It’s got a bunch of different restaurants from BBQ and pizza to sushi and momo, and they just opened an indigenous restaurant.
Today's ruling is disappointing and I am encouraged that the ruling was 5-4. It is reassuring that four justices understood our case and our arguments. I remain undeterred. As President of the Navajo Nation, I represent and protect the Navajo people, our land, and our future.
Ralph Yarl, age 16, knocked on the wrong door in Missouri and was shot.
He went to the door at the wrong home to pick up his younger twin brother and that’s when he was shot, according to police.
CBS affiliate KCTV reports: “The correct address Yarl was attempting to go to was a block away. According to the victim’s Aunt, Faith Spoonmore, the homeowner opened his door and then opened fire on Yarl. The man, whose identity has not been released yet, allegedly took a second shot at Yarl, hitting him in the head again.”
According to KSHB TV: “Yarl was shot by a homeowner after mistakenly arriving at the wrong address — 1100 block of Northeast 115th Street instead of 1100 block of Northeast 115th Terrace.”
The shooting happened April 13th.
The shooter was held by police for 24 hours, pending investigation, but then released.
“I want everyone to know that I am listening,” Kansas City police chief Stacy Graves said at a news conference at Kansas City police headquarters downtown, “and I understand the concern we are receiving from the community.”
“Yarl is the utmost example of how you want a young man to carry himself in this world,” said one of the teen’s longtime teachers to the Kansas City Star. Meara Mitchell, a teacher of Yarl’s for several years, called his shooting “incomprehensible.” She described him Sunday as a “stellar human-being” with a “quiet fortitude.”
KCTV 5 adds: “Yarl is a section leader in his school’s marching band and is said to be a top-base clarinet player in the state of Missouri.”
Moments after Justin Pearson and Justin Jones were expelled, someone unfurled a giant banner that said "Rural TN Against Fascist GOP" and this clip deserves to go more viral.
This is happening tomorrow! Stay tuned. Over the last 6 decades, more than 200K kids have been killed with guns in our country.That is four times the number of U.S. soldiers killed in action in Vietnam,Persia, Afghanistan, and Iraq wars, all together. KEEP THE WALKOUTS! @AMarch4OurLives@Team_Enough@StudentsDemand@patriciapadauy
Wow: Tennessee state Rep. Justin Jones, one of the Dems that the GOP is trying to expel from state legislature to protesting gun violence, calls out his colleagues on the floor
‘For years, one of your colleagues, an admitted child molester, sat in this chamber – no expulsion’
The UK and the U.S. forcibly displaced an entire Indigenous population from the Chagos Islands to build a military base.
Chagossians were never paid reparations or significant compensation. A new @hrw report accuses both countries of crimes against humanity. 🧵
Ok I am an MRI Technologist and I’ve seen a lot of people saying this recently, and people are ignoring or ignorant of one very important fact. The first thing you learn about the MRI scanner is that the magnet 🧲 is always on!!!
OMG—When the MRI machine was turned on, the magnetic 🧲 force pulled his gun from his waistband & it discharged—the bullet struck him in the abdomen—killing him. He was an advocate of gun ownership and encouraged people on TikTok/Instagram to collect guns.
