Hearing how the judge wouldn’t let them have criminal negligence homicide as a choice is crazy. Them not going manslaughter over murder is even crazier.
Let this karmelo Anthony case be an example that sending your black children to white Schools is not magically better for them In these white flight suburbs
America hates black people. It’s time to acknowledge & accept that fact. We cant trust in the law or the court system. Stand your ground didn’t matter, evidence didn’t matter, all they seen was a black boy. That’s all they will ever see is skin color. There is no hope.
And Black people, lastly,
TAKE YOUR ASS TO JURY DUTY
All this outrage, but how many of you duck that summons the second it hits the mailbox? OR go in there and say the most idiotic things to get out of there! If it were you, or your child, or someone you love…
No joke man. It’s depressing as fuck sometimes being Black in this country. It don’t fucking matter what we do it’ll never be okay for us to simply exist!
So, I want to clarify this: #AmberGuyger, a grown woman who was a cop, receives a sentence of 10 years for killing #BothamJean, and she might be out by September 29, 2029 🧐. Meanwhile, #KarmeloAnthony gets 35 years?
Same offense, varied circumstances, and different age groups…
Let’s discuss! What do you think? 💭 #MakeitMakesense #DFW
Karmelo Anthony’s fate was already decided before anybody stepped foot in that courtroom or a jury room.
They never cared about him acting in self-defense and wanted to lock him up regardless of the facts.
Kyle Rittenhouse had an illegal weapon, and got off on self defense, but Karmelo Anthony had a legal weapon, and gets found guilty of murder? Make it make sense. #fba#gatekeepers
The justice system is flawed. There is no justice for black people in a system that has always been meant to keep us oppressed, depressed and enslaved (physically and mentally). Ain’t no way…
