These gatekeepers of oppression do not understand the language of peace! They know that peaceful protest does not work, and that’s why they encourage it! Just ask history how this nation was founded! Patrick Henry was a patriot! Born black in America, and I can’t breathe!
RACISM is a Public Health Emergency! It is an evil philosophy designed to exert power over the darker hues of the earth. This pandemic (RACISM-20) has infected the human mind to the degree that we are forced to choose between believing the oppressor or our lying eyes!
Soldiers, do not act against the rights and interests of your countrymen. Do not be a tool of corruption and murder.
Yeah she better surround herself.

Follow here for the latest updates. If arresting the officer involved is not on the table...then unfortunately, vigilante justice is. Lets see if CNNs experts can throw a little fuel on the fire with asinine commentary... this IS after all Trumps fault Uh...no. Bad move especially if your state had weeks of white men and women with automatic weapons storming goverment buildings, spiting on cops and threatening the greater public safety and you did absolutely nothing except sit back and wave to their protesting neighbor Simon.
