To the Black people coming after me for not standing with Karmelo Anthony:
I don’t have to support him just because he’s Black.
I don’t owe him allegiance.
I don’t owe him loyalty.
I don’t owe him silence.
A kid is dead. A family is destroyed. And yes, that child happened to be white.
Too many of you are only defending Karmelo because he is Black. If the races were reversed, a lot of you would be screaming from the rooftops and demanding justice every single day.
So miss me with the fake outrage.
Being Black does not mean I have to defend every Black person accused of doing something evil. Being Black does not mean I have to ignore right and wrong. Being Black does not mean I have to celebrate or excuse the death of a child.
I stand on morals, not skin color.
You can be mad at me all you want, but I will never support turning a dead child into a race war just because the accused is Black and the victim was white.
Wrong is wrong.
And I said what I said.
@AllAllAllOr@JamieBonkiewicz 376 armed law enforcement responded to Robb Elementary in Uvalde on 5/24/22. A CPB BORTAC unit commander arrived 30+ min before shooting stopped, the rest of the unit arrived 5 min later.
376 armed law enforcement failed children and teachers during a 77-minute-long massacre.
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING: GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert says she’ll vote NO on $200 billion in funding for the Iran war:
"I’m tired of the industrial war complex getting all our hard-earned tax dollars. We need America First policies"
@DevinWanzor@sweatystartup He made a terrible buy into a talent agency company so now he needs to sell his soul by rage-baiting to get larger audience.
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
Warner: "There was no imminent threat to the United States by the Iranians. There was a threat to Israel. If we equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the US, then we are in uncharted territory."
