Trayvon Martin case really opened my eyes to the justice system and how messed up it was. I'll NEVER forget that shit

[RealTimBlack @RealTimBlack]

Let me be clear about what just happened in the Karmelo Anthony verdict. Because the celebration is traveling and the discrepancies aren't.

FACT: Karmelo Anthony was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 35 years.

FACT: The jury deliberated for less than 3 hours.

FACT: There were zero Black jurors on this jury.

FACT: The prosecution used peremptory strikes to remove 100% of eligible Black jurors while keeping a white educator after claiming they didn't want educators on the jury.

FACT: Karmelo Anthony never stood up. The confrontation happened while he was seated. Austin Metcalf was standing over him.

FACT: The jury had the option to choose manslaughter. They chose murder.

FACT: The "sudden passion" defense which would have capped the sentence at 2 to 20 years was rejected.

FACT: Karmelo Anthony's mother was the only witness called during the punishment phase. She asked for mercy. The prosecutor responded: "Mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent."

FACT: Karmelo Anthony will be eligible for parole after serving half his sentence, roughly 17.5 years. He is 19 years old.

Now ask yourself, if the races and sizes were reversed, if Karmelo was 6'1" standing over a seated smaller white teenager who reached up with a knife, does this even go to trial?

You already know the answer.

Say his name. Karmelo Anthony.

Stay Dangerous.

It’s only self defense when a black kid dies

[Butlerian Jihadist @RascalFKennedy]

Asian dude shoots black kid and gets off Scott free. Black kid defends himself gets found guilty. Wild country.

After some initial years of "freedom", you realise that there's an emptiness that only God can fill.

I wish Black folks would stop playing into respectability politics, I mean we all know shorty was innocent but even if he stole water his penalty shouldn't be fucking death.

If Rick Chow was found not guilty after chasing that boy down and murdering him because he “feared for his and his son’s life” then Karmelo Anthony needs to be found not guilty for fearing for his too and I don’t wanna hear shit differently coming out that court room…

They shooting the messenger, but she ain’t wrong. Dating and sex were heavily demonized in a lot of our homes. We were told to stay away from boys and focus on school. The problem is that relationships are a skill set too and many Black women were prepared for careers but left to figure out dating, boundaries, and healthy partnership on our own.

Mind you, when it was convenient yall was saying lame ass shit like “I am not my elders and ancestors.” Like they were ever weak. Just for them to show up and do more than us in their seasoned years while we tweet.
