I live 56 miles from the San Jacinto Battleground where Santa Anna was defeated in 1836. I live about a million miles from The Republic of Texas though.
I feel compelled to tell a story. I hope it’s appropriate to retweet @BreeNewsome but I apologize in advance if I break some kind of Twitter rule. I don’t understand Twitter etiquette at times.
I believe this illustrates how Black men get killed and white men are allowed to kill.
*sigh*
So I read this & it’s an example of my criticism that white liberalism wrongly treats “the law” as a neutral force
The law is never equally applied to Black ppl. There’s no basis to assume a self-defense claim would benefit a Black defendant the same way as Rittenhouse
@AttorneyCrump #1- police officer cause of death 2021= COVID
#2- cause of death vehicle collision
#3- violent injury

This isn’t the Wild Wild West, police officers need to calm down and focus on preserving life, not wasting it.
@GregAbbott_TX People with common sense ought to be clamoring for vaccines.
But, those who ‘did the research’ on Youtube-Boobtube are avoiding them like the plague.
Weird, avoiding the vaccination against the plague like it was the plague.
Look, a cloud of locusts are coming!
@CTmagazine@drmoore A fertilized egg does not become life, it merely accelerates development of the life that already existed. There are hundreds of eggs available in a woman’s life. A woman cannot be forced to preserve one egg because a sperm cell has fused with it. Choices between eggs is trivial.
@CTmagazine@drmoore The only standard should be choice. Every human cell contains DNA. Every egg contains DNA packaged to produce life. The development of a body is not life, the cell and its DNA is life.
Choices can never be eliminated by illusions. A woman cannot be enslaved by illusions.
In under five minutes and despite multiple security guards on campus, a 15-year-old with access to a semiautomatic handgun was able to kill a 16-year-old boy and two girls, ages 14 and 17, and wound eight others.
It’s the guns. https://t.co/sRxo07NDTc
@shannonrwatts The motive is money, sex, or power. Sophomores haven’t got any other motives, so agreed,
“HOW DID A STUDENT ACCESS A SEMIAUTOMATIC HANDGUN AND MAGAZINES?”
The Texas agency that regulates oil and gas meets today to approve a rule allowing gas supply companies to “opt out” of fixing the problems plaguing our power grid.
It’s up to us to hold them accountable. Watch online or go in person at 1:30pm: https://t.co/lIQxpBTMz1
