Some white children were throwing rocks at her as she walked home. She was a schoolteacher. So she did what a teacher does — she told them to stop.
That night their parents came to her house and sh0t her. Elizabeth Lawrence. Birmingham, Alabama, 1933.
She had spent her life teaching children. She corrected some children in the street. A mob came to her door for it.
When her son Alexander tried to press for an investigation, they came back and burned the house down. He fled Birmingham and did not return.
No one was charged. Her name appears in no textbook.
We publish the massacres because they happened. But cases like this one are the ones that tell you how the system actually worked day to day — because the "offense" here is something a decent adult does automatically, without thinking, anywhere on earth.
She told some kids to stop throwing rocks. That was enough
My Lord.
@JoeBiden, 83 years old, battling Stage 4 cancer that has spread to his bones, stood for HOURS alongside @DrBiden as the names of 9/11 victims were read.
Donald Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 event at the Pentagon.
One showed respect despite his pain. The other couldn't even stay awake.
Trump is an embarrassment to the nation and the office he holds.
Really says it all.
Here’s basically what happened at the Republican Convention
1. Somebody yelled “SHOOT A CANDIDATE.” Ted Cruz @tedcruz stayed silent.
2. The President told the country to cheat.
3. The President Made everyone swear allegiance.
4. The President Said vote Republican or go to hell.
5. The President offered $5K if you voted Republican.
6. The VP said immigrants are making America dirty.
7. The VP Insinuated a candidate was a pedophile — no proof.
8. Ted Cruz condemned all Muslims.
Why do republicans get a pass on all this?
Christians have driven cars through crowds, annihilated their entire family, raped children, executed mass shootings, burned women alive, lynched black people...
What's that? Not all Christians are like that, you say?
I agree. So stop accusing all Muslims for 9/11.
“I know someone who had a litter box installed at her school.” No you don’t.
“I know someone who uses abortion as birth control.” No you don’t.
“I know someone whose kid went to school and came home a different gender.” No you don’t.
“I know someone who voted twenty times in the same election.” No you don’t.
“I know an undocumented immigrant getting free housing, healthcare, and groceries.” No you don’t.
If someone dying after you tricked them into believing they were receiving medical care doesn't get you serious prison prison time, it damned well should.
Chelsea Perkins murdered the man who raped her.
She pled guilty and took full responsibility.
She was given 22.5 years in prison.
Jesse Mack Butler raped and strangled two children. One sustained such severe neck injuries she almost died.
He got community service.
Here’s what I know:
1. Luigi had no history of violence at all. No criminal record at all. Not even a misdemeanor.
2. Luigi had mild depression but other than that he had no mental health problems at all.
So the official story is that a well educated rich kid, with no history of violence, no criminal record, no serious mental health issues, left his high rise apartment in Honolulu and traveled all the way across the country to NYC where he somehow obtained a “partially 3-D printed” gun and then carried out a perfectly targeted assassination on a healthcare CEO who was traveling and just happened to be outside his hotel at 5:30 in the morning.
Then, according to the Feds, this well educated rich kid, with no history of violence, no criminal record, no serious mental health issues, fled across the city back to his hostel where he collected his belongings, always keeping his face carefully covered (except the one time he tried to flirt with the clerk on check-in).
He then went south to BFE Pennsylvania where he was arrested 5 days later after a worker at a McDonalds called the cops claiming a customer was “being weird” despite the bodycams showing him just sitting in a booth minding his own business on his computer.
Those same cops who captured him on their body cams then did a preliminary search of his backpack where they report finding a “gun magazine” inside.
These same cops then load the backpack into their vehicle, *turn off their body cams* and then miraculously find the “partially 3-D printed gun” and a notebook containing the “manifesto.”
Then a transcript of that manifesto is “leaked” to Ken Klippenstein, the EXACT same guy who also got the big leak on the Tyler Robinson Discord chats.
The cops then completely fabricated a conversation with Luigi’s mom, and claimed she said “I could see him doing this” when she literally never said that and they were forced to admit so in court.

Those are the things I know. So yes, I’m comfortable giving Luigi the presumption of innocence until trial.
HR: We noticed you discussed your salary with a coworker.
Employee: Yes.
HR: That's against company policy.
Employee: It's also against federal law to have that policy.
HR: Excuse me?
Employee: Look up the National Labor Relations Act. I'll wait.
Not all company policies are legal
ICE is killing disabled people.
On February 19, ICE picked up 56-year-old Nurul Amin Shah Alam.
They decided he was "not amenable to removal."
But instead of contacting his family or taking him to a safe facility, they dropped him off at a Tim Hortons without telling anyone.
A blind, non-English speaking man was abandoned, left to die in a New York winter.
Five days later, he was found frozen to death on the pavement near the KeyBank Center.
This wasn’t a “courtesy ride” for the disabled man.
It was a death sentence.
This is Linda Davis, a special education teacher who was killed in a car crash involving ICE agents
The agents didn’t render aid.
She was minutes from her school and bled to death in her car.
They didn’t offer aid to Renee Good or Alex Pretti either.
Say her name too.
Pam Bondi, "There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime"
Ted Lieu, "You just lied under oath. There is ample evidence in the Epstein files"
Pam Bondi, "Don't you ever accuse me of a crime"
Ted Lieu, "You just lied under oath, and this is on video tape"
Ted Lieu then reads an extract from the Epstein files about a girl who says she was raped by Trump and Epstein and had her head blown off, with officer saying it couldn't have been a suicide
Ted Lieu, "You have not held a single man accountable"
"Shame on you"
"if you had any decency, you would resign after this hearing concludes"
