Really
These are all tactics to distract us or soften us up.
Real ones used the cartoon band-aids anyway
Being able to vote while sitting in my boxers is amazing
This country is beyond saving. I would have left the hellhole that is America long time ago if i lived there.
I feel like at this point, even if things calm down and go back to "normal". People's hostility towards law enforcement will stay. All trust and respect when it comes to The Police has been lost. Someone on my timeline wrote that she actually has to lie to people about her parents occupation now (They're both cops), that's how bad its gotten.
Not saying it isn't deserved though.

Why is the system so damn stupid??
Trying to find some concrete sources but apparently there was a black man found hanging from a tree in Palmdale, California last night/early this morning.

Who was Long (full name)
Gavin Eugene Long
shot six police officers in Baton Rouge after Alton Sterling murder
the idea that (in their mind) Dorner, Johnson, and Long (as former military) defended America from terror by killing police is powerful
damn I'm trying to steer myself away from thinking any killing at all is justified but
:jordanok: u might have one
"Trump is so horrible!"
Me after paying heavy attention to U.S. politics for the 4 years he's run and been in office except on small spans of preserving my mental health:

They don’t deserve praise or a pat on the back for doing this and they’re most likely only doing it cause of the current climate.... It should’ve happened a long time ago....
But isn’t it a good thing that they’re doing it? Would you have rather them continued casting white guys?
Bachelor imo as a franchise is corny af people just wanting to hook up with like 20 different people
s*** so phony to me i don't really care what they do either way but i mean, if people want representation in the bachelor i guess give it to em.
even though the whole concept is lame to me lol
Protests still going on?
For sure many cities have had protests everyday for nearly two weeks
My dad was charged with a crime he didn’t commit when he was 16. Got sentenced for a year and spent his 18th birthday in Rikers. Even though he was a minor they didn’t seal his record, making it nearly impossible to get any actual employment. He managed to get a job at a furniture store and in a few years time managed to own a couple stores in the Bronx for himself. However, he was still in trouble. He immigrated from Colombia when he was 8 and because of his record he was ineligible for citizenship. He still payed all his taxes, did his civic duties, and everything a regular US citizen would do, but couldn’t vote or exercise any basic right. He was forced to serve as a witness in 2005 for a criminal case cause they threatened him with deportation. The judge on the case was the same one who sentenced him to a year in Rikers. The man who marked my dad for life as a a permanent illegal called him an “outstanding citizen”. My parents went through immigration lawyers to find out what they could do. Unfortunately the only real way for my dad to be considered for citizenship was for him to leave the country, return, and be detained in the process by ICE, an incredibly risky move. In the end he died at the age of 39 of lymphoma, as a convicted criminal in the eyes of the state for something he never did. Even though my father was white passing they saw his last name and his country of origin and decided to condemn a minor for the rest of his life, the fact that he succeeded in despite of it is remarkably rare, and something not many former convicts are privy to.
The justice system is evil. The prison system is evil. Anyone who condemned my father is going to hell.
powerful story

Thank you.
Also wanted to bring how when me and my sisters were young he’d always plan out these trips down to Florida and s***. And I remember asking him why we never went out of the country. He avoided the question and it took me a few years to figure out why. He always talked about wanting to take us to Colombia but i had no clue that could’ve never happened. Two years after we passed my family ended up going to Colombia and s*** was real pretty.
Here we go again
This happened in 2019 FYI
