Once more, the SCOTUS proves why important to have DEMOCRATIC presidents...
Never ever forget that fact.

I really love that little girl, I hope that she never loses her willingness to speak truth to power.
But the fact that an innocent grown Black guy was handcuffed and questioned for FIVE HOURS, all on the casual and racially stereotypical implication of some 17 YO and then was only absolved 30 seconds after the word of a little 4 YO white girl, says way more about our society and law enforcement than ANYTHING else. A little 4 YO white girl has more systematic power and impact over a black man's fate than his own innocence.
Welcome to White Privilege, everybody!

A Paid Non-Attorney Spokesperson:
"As you have heard, the anti-blahsal drugs, SQUEE® and SQUEE® 1-Day™, were pulled from the market due to significant increase in diabetes, foul-smelling discharge, strokes, heart attacks and death among SQUEE® and SQUEE® 1-Day™ users. Questions have been raised about whether the drug manufacturer should have known of these problems earlier. If you or a loved one have had a stroke, a heart attack or are dead right now after taking SQUEE® or SQUEE® 1-Day™ within the last 24-36 hours, SQUEE® or SQUEE® 1-Day™ may be related. Call the law offices of Dewey, Cheatem and Howe for an evaluation."

Who else thinks that the DirectTV marionette campaign is really, really creepy?
They were much better off with the kids who were all talking beyond their years…
