Today, NFL star Azeez Al-Shaair has announced that he will honor 8-year-old Fatima Al-Bayook, who lost her entire family in an Israeli airstrike in 2023 and survived two days beneath the rubble, only to be shot and murdered by Israeli forces in Gaza two days ago.
He will be wearing her name on his eye black during the Texans game against the Giants.
They called the police on a three-year-old because he is good at soccer.
Read that again.
They called the cops on a toddler.A three-year-old. Because he can kick a ball better than the other kids on the field.
Not because he assaulted anyone. Not because he had a weapon. Not because he was a danger to anyone.
Grown adults watched a toddler play a sport and decided the appropriate response was to dial emergency services and send uniformed officers to deal with a child who has not yet started kindergarten.
The look on that baby's face when the cop was talking broke my heart. He will never forget this day and rightfully so. The parents that called the cops should be ashamed!
