So for there is been a lot going on in this world today a dead virus and a man got violated by the cops because of his skin color. Hate has been in this world for the longest time. I did not really say much about it because I am a black man and hate was a part of life like breathing or putting on a shirt and pants or eating. This time when the hateful act happened it hit home it bothered me. I remember when i was a younger man I had the same kinda of injustice but not to the exstent of what happen a week ago but I tell myself if this world doesnt change this could have been me and it still can be me.

I would think you were inhuman if it didn't bother you. What happened to George was wrong and I don't know anyone who disagrees with that. I don't know how I would act if I were a black man in Maryland right now. I believe though that I would stay away from mad crowds. A lot of level headed people are staying silent because they are afraid their words will only make things worse. If only the deranged ones felt the same way. We need the cooler heads speaking out.
