Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison for stabbing and killing Austin Metcalf.
BLM activists and much of the Black community are now losing their minds, claiming the justice system is "racist" and that Karmelo was prosecuted simply because he's Black.
For starters, that's an incredibly low-IQ way of looking at the world.
But more than that, these are the same people who spend every day lecturing the public about white privilege, systemic oppression, and social justice, yet somehow always find themselves turning violent criminals into martyrs and convincing themselves that those criminals represent the defining moral issue of our time.
To me, the greatest privilege is a Black man believing he can show up to a school he was suspended from, stab and kill a teenager, admit to it, try to play the self-defense card, get his bond lowered, get released from jail, raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for his so-called "legal battle," then spend that money on a $900,000 home in a luxurious gated community, reportedly buy his mother a nose job, probably a few pairs of sneakers, and then spend the next year and a half trash-talking Austin Metcalf and spreading lies about him, all while Austin Metcalf's father was placed under a gag order and wasn't allowed to publicly defend his own son.
And then, after all of that, instead of assembling a world-class legal team, he ends up with a public defender because the family burned through the money that was raised.
Those are not the actions of people who truly believe the system is stacked against them. Those are the actions of people who have become so comfortable manipulating the language of victimhood that they start mistaking it for immunity.
If his family genuinely believed racism was going to determine the outcome of this case, every dollar raised would have gone toward building the strongest defense possible. Elite attorneys. Expert witnesses. Jury consultants. Private investigators. Media advisers. Every available resource.
Instead, they behaved like people who never seriously believed they were in danger of losing.
Because those are not the actions of people terrified of a racist justice system.
Those are the actions of people who believed the rules didn't apply to them— and that screaming "racism" would be enough to avoid accountability when they finally did.
35 years isn't enough. I hope Karmelo Anthony rots in prison for what he did.
@PeppermintSw@ChampionsOTIce Self-medication is not the only reason people do drugs, and jfc people like you come up with an excuse for everything. Not "neurotypical?" Ok- how about you learn to fucking cope? Its not an excuse to turn to a life of crime and become everyone elses' problem.
@cazzziew_44@MyronGainesX Caysen was cornered and surrounded by 5 guys, unable to leave after trying to de-escalate.
Adamson shot his attacker during an attempted robbery.
Both still received a charge because inappropriate force was used.
Karmelo started a fight, escalated it, then murdered his target.
@_Re_UPS Oh no watermelon felon!!!! So fragile and pathetic. His son was fucking murdered and you guys are crying that his murderer is facing consequences. Black people are rarely the fucking victims and certainly arent here. Shut the fuck up for once jesus fucking christ.
@THEREALDAWG74@MaryAnnreports Actually most 17 year olds know not to stab other people to death in a fight they provoked. Its not supposed to be a difficult concept.
@Savsays "People need to hold accountability for their kids" she says, moments after stating she would continue supporting a murderer even after being presented irrefutable proof of his guilt. Too stupid and nonsensical to share a society with. So much fatigue.
“I think that we should have more Republicans on the show. But they don’t want to come on- they’re scared of us.”
When I was pitched to go on, they said no lol
This is such a good point. If you actually watch Charlie’s events—as opposed to the fake summaries—they are one of the few places with open and honest dialogue between left and right. He would answer any question and talk to everyone.
Notice how conservatives are very angry about Iryna’s killing and yet there are no shop owners boarding up their windows in preparation for mass rioting and looting. As a leftist, how do you not look at this fact and come to the realization that you are definitely the bad guys?
A society that burns neighbourhoods and calls for the defunding of the police for the guy on the left and largely ignores the public butchering of the woman on the right is one that is drowning in the infinity pool of Suicidal Empathy.
@DojaFishShoes @chumbucketrulez @onikaminach2 Yep, all I'm saying is he could have been a little more up front about what his content actually is Of course then he wouldn't have gotten half as many subs, which is exactly why he advertised it in the way he did.
@DojaFishShoes @chumbucketrulez @onikaminach2 I just think misrepresenting your content in order to get subscribers to pay money is a little scammy🤷♂️. If you are happy to pay for a glorified instagram page, thats your money and your business, but at the same time i can be disappointed in something that i spent my money on.
