@mypeeledopinion@EricLDaugh I advocate non violence, but I also advocate for self defense in the face of violence.
We wouldn’t know a kid had a knife if he wasn’t assaulted.
Israel executed baby Sam today with a bullet to the face in the occupied West Bank.
They killed his mother too.
Sam was only 7 months old.
They murdered a mother. And her infant.
🚨 Father stabs his ex-wife and their two young daughters to death before killing himself in Doral.
Ryan Charles Whiten, 42, murdered 46-year-old Melanie Hyer and their daughters Savannah, 11, and Sienna, 8, inside her home in the Doral Isles gated community.
All four were found with stab wounds during a welfare check Tuesday night. Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office confirmed Whiten committed the heinous acts then took his own life.
The couple had separated years ago and were locked in a bitter custody battle after their divorce was finalized in March. Whiten had previously voiced fears about losing custody of the girls.
Two little girls who should have had their whole lives ahead of them are gone. A mother who was a pillar in her community is gone.
This Island deal of Kushner’s is far worse then I ever suspected. This is a fortified military installation with its own bunker city. This is not a resort.
The Ngundeng or Dung-Kur Pyramid, which was in today's South Sudan, was destroyed to ground zero by the British forces who viewed it as a potent symbol of Nuer resistance against colonial rule.
Their crimes are always mistakes.
This word is doing extraordinary work.
A mistake is when you miscalculate.
When you act in good faith and the outcome is bad.
Three million dead in Vietnam: mistake.
A million dead in Iraq based on fabricated intelligence: mistake.
Decades of funding death squads across Latin America: mistake. Or complicated. Or a different time.
The word "mistake" contains an entire theology.
It preserves the intention.
It says: we meant well, it went wrong, we are still the people who mean well.
The alternative word, "crime," does something the theology cannot survive.
Crime implies a perpetrator.
Crime implies a victim with standing.
Crime implies accountability.
So it is never a crime.
It is always a mistake.
Always.
Across every administration. Every decade. Every continent.
The most consistent mistake-makers in modern history.
White people often get upset with me for pointing this out, but damn. C'mon. Sexual violence against children by the trusted so-called "mandated reporters" of a certain demographic is burgeoning beyond comprehension.
@TheLaurenChen How did we get here?
If that’s a genuine question, the answers are;
-Reconstruction
-Jim Crow
-Civil Rights
But you will have to know in depth information on these eras to truly understand…. But who am I kidding, this is Twitter.
This is Riley T Carter and he was a MAGA Congressman in WA. He was a proponent on making kids safe again until he was arrested and convicted of incest,child rape and the molestation of a 11 year old family member.He was sentenced to 46 years in prison.
@1SamuelAfolabi@kevinnbass You should ask your bot about conviction rates, because “a certain demographic” also has a distinctive gap between arrest/crime and conviction/overturns … which correlates to either terrible policing and or false accusations… hell, even both.
@TilsonLind44126@God2Evolution@magattew Europeans actually destroyed Africas infrastructure, across the continent, then murdered, or enslaved its leaders for hundreds of years.
This is literally documented by the Portuguese, Dutch, English, Germans… in their own history books.
@magattew Ethiopia may have never been colonized, but Ethiopia has been ravaged by attempted colonization… or, war and conflict, which depletes a nations resources over time.
Saying “Ethiopia was never colonized” and dismissing the violence brought to its borders is disingenuous.
