Tyre Nichols giving a young girl a flower at a Sacramento skatepark 💛

Tyre Nichols giving a young girl a flower at a Sacramento skatepark 💛

His friend, Dezmond Sinclair, says this picture sums up Tyre. Always the 1st one to make you feel welcome, protected the kids, and was always hyping you up as you learned a new trick.

A beautiful soul 💜

May there be peace in whatever realm might exist for Tyre. And for his parents and his son on earth. I cannot even imagine how his mother is coping.

then they should not be police officers. I'm suspecting mistaken identity or some sort of personal dispute for them to beat this man to death.

Violence does not search for justification. The point of violence is violence.

motive, means, opportunity, etc. are investigated for murder

random acts of murderous violence should make people a lot more concerned. George Floyd was 3 years ago.
