killing a 12 year old who is playing with a toy gun is justified? What can we expect from people who say killing a Black man who picks up an air rifle from the shelf in a store where White people walk around with real rifles and handguns on their shoulders and hips is a justified shooting? What can you expect from people who see on film a Black man following the officer's commands, reaches for his wallet and is shot anyway; and feel he should not have moved? There are no safe instructions for Black and Brown people. They shoot if you do and they shoot if you don't. The problem now is that power drunk forgets they are only supposed to be shooting Black and Brown people. They are actually shooting and beating up and raping White people more often now too. When you go along with unjust justification for some, know that unjust justification is coming for you next.
What can you expect from people who say torturing prisoners in Guantanamo is justified? What can you expect from people who torture prisoners in American prisons because they know the public could not care less? No one cares until their child is caught up in the madness. No one cares until they get the call. If you are too insensitive to empathize or sympathize your teacher will be realize.
Wake up, America! It's all being done in your name.

Those that want to make themselves important look down on anyone different ( color, race, religion,poor,) etc.
I am embarrassed and appalled at what people are accepting now.
Apparently they don't think this can affect them too.
Wake up!
