Yesterday my 16-year-old brother was racially profiled in a neighborhood in Sanford Florida, the same city as Trayvon Martin. Luckily, he had a different fate. I commend my brother for how he reacted in the situation. They tried to throw a brick at his head, And missed.
I never ask this, but I'm asking now: Please retweet this.

I don't think data analytics or machine learning is needed here. Our brains can perfectly understand what is happening, and figure out cause and effect. I often wonder how the decision makers figured out how much more revenue a life is worth? And how they can sleep at night.
If you killed a man w/ health conditions, you still killed a man.
George Floyd couldn’t breathe. 3 officers held him down, & one w/ a recorded, violent history kneed his neck as others helped.
They waited 9 minutes for his last breath. This was not an accident. It was murder.
Trump claims he didn't know the origin of "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." But then goes on to say he has heard the phrase “for a long time.” But then he mischaracterized the meaning of the phrase to say “when there’s looting, people get shot." Not what it means.
The new Axis of Evil.
Trump spews lies, hate and conspiracies.
Fox dutifully repeats them.
Facebook microtargets them to millions of voters—and gets paid to do it.
Goebbels would be jealous.
