I could not weigh in on Elijah Mcclain sooner because every time I think of him I see my son. A wave of fear, exhaustion and hopelessness hits me. When I made the stop killing us video I thought about how George Floyd called out to his mother. So many of us live in fear & pain.
I just want us to be safe, I want out children to group up in a world that doesn't see them as older than they are. Or bad seeds or any of the negatives that folks treat as common place when they are far from it. I sit here in tears thinking that sweet child who...
played music for kitty cats was brutalized by folks who should have protected him. If we are not going to hold our Law enforcement to high standards and accountability, they should not be allowed to wear anything that says "protect and serve."
I am more in fear of them then I will ever feel comforted by seeing them. And this should not be, that is what need to be said and its what needs to change. If you are a good cop prove it by holding your brothers and sisters in blue who aren't accountable!
And accept that like every part of humanity there are bad people and you do not have to cover or stand up for them. But if you do expect everyone to view you as bad as they are. /end
