@TrellfromBmore Let’s remind these people what a lynching is, we are never to forget and they need to be constantly educated...Zora Neale Hurston’s quote comes to mind, “if u are silent about ur pain, they’ll kill u & say u enjoyed it”

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

No truer words...

The hypocrisy is as blatant as it is predictable.

A Black teenager attends an event he has every right to attend, legally possesses a knife, is confronted, and suddenly the chorus becomes: “Why did he have a knife?” “He should have walked away.” “He shouldn’t have defended himself.”

A white teenager travels to a city where he doesn’t live, inserts himself into a volatile protest, carries an AR-15 he was too young to possess, claims he is there to protect property he does not own, shoots two people, and the very same voices instantly declare: “That was self-defense.”

So which is it?

The answer is painfully obvious.

In America, self-defense is not a principle. It is a racial privilege. A privilege extended to white people and denied to Black people.

@Acyn A twice impeached, quadruple indicted, rapist, convicted felon & son of a klansman who stole classified documents, let covid kill people, & who incited an insurrection. I guess Trump can spot a fellow thug.

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.

NEWS: Governor Wes Moore, along with Baltimore’s Mayor Brandon Scott, have overseen an over 40% decrease in homicides in Maryland putting the state on pace for its lowest homicide rate in over 40 years. That’s huge.
