Experience Tumblr like never before
Rant/vent?/opinion here, and a small story time. This is serious. If you don't agree with me, then feel free to feel that way. Just please don't bash at me for what I believe in.
Can someone *please* explain to me how it is right and logical to out of no where start *shooting* at an unarmed family??? Like what the actual cheese sticks??? My friend, who as ridiculous he can act, wouldn't hurt a fly. Today, while his family, who is of mixed race, was visiting Austin when out of no where these guys with *guns* show up and literally starts SHOOTING AT THEM. For no good reason!!!! How *far* has this world and nation *sunk* for a group of strangers to be allowed to go doen the streets and attempt to MURDER a family??
Oh wait- it has happened many times, right??? We were just to blind to see it! And I know this horrendous act is *not* going to stop until someone does something about it! But the one that runs the United States isn't even caring, or hes doing as little as it his presidentially possible to change the tune that it's worse than him doing nothing!
this is why we are fighting for Black Lives Matter. Because 'All lives matter' is just a myth unless this thing ends.
Another friend of mine reacted to this with these words:
"WELL welcome to [*******] AMERICA...
We say BLM FOR A REASON
Because white supremacist pigs run wild in the streets. Because colored folks ain’t safe. The land of the free only if you’re a straight white rich male.
He didn’t deserve that. No one does and I hope he recovers but this is why. This is why all lives can’t matter until black lives do. Until lgbtq lives do."
Here's my reply to what their response was:
Not until ALL LIVES MATTER LIKE THE SAYING SAYS, NOT WHATEVER FACADE YOU HIDE BEHIND
TILL SEXISM IS ABOLISHED FROM THE MINDS AND THE HEARTS
COLOR OF THE SKIN JUST MEANS HOW MUCH SUN YOU GET
AND WHO YOU LOVE AND WHO YOU ARE JUST MAKES YOU UNIQUE, NOT SOME WILD ANIMAL
CAUSE LET ME TELL YOU
IF THINGS DONT CHANGE
I SWEAR ILL GO KAMIKAZE ON YOU
We can and will rise to fight this. We will mold the world into a better and freer place. Even if it takes my dying breath, id do it. Because we all have to stand up against this. They may take some of us, but we will keep on coming, keep on fighting, we will make our voices known. Because 'All lives matter' is just a myth unless this ends, and the only way that can happen is if we all take a stand, together, and strengthen each other's weaknesses. Support each other. Prove them wrong.
There is strength in numbers. And oh boy, do we got them.
Stay safe, stay strong, and do what you believe in.
