I feel outrage every time this happens.

It makes me feel helpless.

It makes me feel afraid to leave my house.

It is as if the government wants to start a revolution in this country.

But the wingnuts would not be on the side of normal people

who want peace, unity, and equality.

The majority of wingnuts want the U.S. to be snow white.

The ones who want a revolution are the confederate flag crowd.

This country is so sick and twisted.

Our politicians are doing absolutely NOTHING to stop the murder

of its citizens.

but the fact that at less the ones that I know want this addressed now, gives me some hope.

And seeing this stuff day in and day out, yeah, I kind of need that hope.

just adds to my misery and anger at the hypocrisy of our so called democracy. This shit has to be defeated. How? After having seen, in my 50 years of awareness of this racist nations privileged sub group intention of destroying as many black lives that it possibly can by any means available, social, institutional, systemic, economic, terror by hanging, burning, castrating, shootings while worshiping, burning of churches, all current and up to date by the way and watching and contributing to every conceivable effort(s) aimed at extinguishing racial hate FAIL, I just don't know how anymore. How to get vicious, sociopathic, psychopathic idiots with guns and badges off the streets? I know it's not possible, especially with the tea party/libertarian racists disguised as republicans wanting this hate to continue to be agitated to their own depraved racist ends.

It not possible with fox snoozers locking down their families on 4th of july because of the ISIS "threat" to our revered holiday. Really happened to a friend of mine who couldn't see her grand child on that weekend because her grandson was in the bunker waiting for the end of the world as we know it. Sad indeed. She is finally seeing what fox snooze is doing to people. with their ginning up of terror threats and hate.

This country has an uncontrolled runaway train bearing down on it, and when that train of toxic hate crashes, there will be hell to pay by all, except maybe those 1%ers living in their world(s) of luxury and security.

Any shooting should require an incident accident report with the murderer's piss test to rule out 'roids and a full tox screen to rule out intoxication at the time of the 'unexpected'occurrence.

Seriously. If they can test SNAP recipients they have the where with all to random sample these
bastards just like athletes.

Don't get me started. This is such a human rights violation. Where do we rate, in rank order, in the civilized world, for extra judicial executions?

Somewhere after Syria? Or North Korea? Do they shoot people dead over there for reporting stolen bikes?
Would it be world news when it happens? Or do they just hide it, too?

Unimaginable.
