Amber Guyger Convicted

[Athene]

Don't need to relax, cuz I'm not riled up.

That's usually what people who are riled up say.

Nah. No, not really. At least, not in my experience. 

And of course, they sure can grieve the way they feel appropriate--And I am free to comment as I see fit. 
This a discussion board, dude. I am here to discuss.

No one's telling you you can't comment on it, lol calm down.

Oh, bullshit.  

You repeatedly commanding for me to "calm down" as if I'm wild and out of control is a deliberate attempt shut down talking points and perspective that you don't wish to hear. Unfortunately for you, I don't play these silly sorts of games.

Fear of being labeled "angry" doesn't get me all out of sorts and afraid to voice my true thoughts and opinions.

And the way I see it, the defendant's brother begging to hug that woman and yammering on about Jesus was a sad, sad testament to just how damaged some folks's brains are due to indoctrination/Christianity. There are too many Black people especially who have been brainwashed into be WAY too forgiving of this sort of fuckery. Frankly, I'm sick of the entire narrative--The expectation that we should be the better people and turn the other cheek and forgive motherfuckers who see fit to mow us down like cattle. 

The narrative warrants pushback IMO, and I don't mind saying so.

And fuck that judge, especially. Handing that twat a Bible as she brush away the defendant's tears like some goddamned mammy.
I mean, what in the fucking Oprah Winfrey was that all about?

Inappropriate a hell.

What a shit show.

You can frame it however you like; it comes off like you telling people they're wrong for feeling how they feel, which is silly.

Would I forgive someone who killed my sister/brother/father/mother like this? Nope. But I'm also not going to tell other people how to grieve.

Yeah, see...Idgaf what you would do though. So therein lies the problem...lol.
I don't care that you find it inappropriate that I'm expressing how I feel about the the victim's brother's tap dancing.

You found it impressive and/or admirable? Not surprised.
I, however, do not. And you and I are unlikely to ever see eye to eye on such issues. I can live with that. 

You'll have to as well.
