Got another one. This time in Atlanta. Google Rashard Brooks. Intoxicated and asleep in his car at a Wendy's. Allegedly struggled with cops. Got shot and is dead. There is video, which I haven't seen. Regardless of what the truth is, incidents like this, at a time like this, only stoke the fires.
African-American bigotry and violence against Black transgenders is sadly much too common. African-American v African-American homicide, in all cases, by any measure, is epidemic. The chances of a Black male being killed by a White man are statistically miniscule. I'd follow the evidence not an agenda driven bias. Remember, in the African-American community, not all Black lives matter, most infact don't matter at all. Reality sucks.
Arbor! Nice seeing you again. I dunno - I'm in the general area. the AV isn't exactly a hotbed of racism. I'd say the only racists who might be holding out there would be the meth-heads in the trailers out in the middle of the desert. COULD there have been foul play? It's certainly possible. But on the other hand suicides are on the rise right now - look HERE and HERE. I mean - We need to wait and see what the investigation comes up with. Meanwhile, there's protesters out and about in Palmdale and they've already concluded foul play was involved. That usually never ends well.
and we learned that was because of his diagnosis, they gave us reasons for their belief it was suicide
Well, as it turns out ...it was indeed a suicide. So there ya go. Off to the Memory Hole for this story. I'm familiar with the area so there were a couple things being discussed up there that don't seem to be part of the overall narrative everywhere else. One was that apparently Fuller's folks knew full well that it was likely a suicide - especially as he had attempted it before - but led people on that it was a lynching for a bigger GoFundMe. The other was that this kid wasn't exactly the angel the media tried portraying him as. But - *shrugs* It is what it is.
Was the noose made by the same person who planned to terrorize Bubba the race car driver a year in advance?
Only if Fuller worked at NASCAR as he used his own EBT card to buy the rope he hanged himself with. Funny thing - my nephew and a teacher friend have both posted often about Fuller. Now that it was ruled a suicide - and from what I understand the parents saw what little video evidence there was - they've stopped discussing it. I mean, it IS a tragedy; most any suicide is and I feel badly for his family - but it sure is strange how certain people of a left-leaning and BLM-supporting nature stopped caring about it once any ability to milk it for any political capital dried up. Funny, huh?
Funny in a sick America is fundamentally broken kind of way. The victim culture is gong to destroy us.
The really sad thing is, you have on display right here that victim mentality. I often deal with kids with suicidal thoughts; I've counseled plenty of them. And you take that and add to it the lack of social gathering that's happening which is driving suicide rates up as it is PLUS being black during a time where tensions are higher than ever now and it's a wonder suicides aren't even more plentiful than they are already. And yet even with this information which ought to be common sense, you had scads of LW-ers practically hoping it was a lynching so as to get some political coin from it. I dunno - I had to have meetings with a number of kids who were pretty depressed this year not being able to be with their friends. I've seen this from all races a lot more than I ever have before. It's terrifying. But apparently not to certain members of the LW; to them he was just an opportunity.
People contemplating suicide should choose the method of hanging as a final farewell to a cruel world which has condoned hanging, or worse, cruxifiction , of millions of all races of humans , since the rise of the Sumerian empire 4500 B.C.
Well, CNN does employ a "journalist" who wondered if a commercial airliner was swallowed up by a black hole.
Now that they've caught who did it, do you maybe have something you'd like to say about your posts earlier in this thread?
FoxHastings said: ↑ The history of the United States is not fake news....lynching innocent black people was part of the systemic racism in the US.. What about them? They weren't lynched because of the color of their skin. They weren't lynched for no reason and then everyone looked the other way. LOL, you're stretching and it isn't going to work......
