And, it's achingly beautiful that so many people are in solidarity with him by raising theirs.. including this sweet little child on his daddy's back in Ferguson, MO, she. Mahalo.

His funeral is Monday.

Michael, we mourn you.

a place of gratuitous hate, she.. the pathetic ilk that rah rah's on threads where the OP makes up shit about the President to feed their own ignorant arrogance.
