So here's a For Mr. Brown.

I hope you, Trayvon, Jordan, and Emmett are sitting up there having a good laugh with my dad today!

A couple of things...

As a general rule, I do not (ever) participate in any 'kick threads'. I do not find it useful, and you can see by my post count,
I do not post a lot in general.

As the the police *murdering* and *assassinating* and killing PoC... .... .... Do you understand my position from my adjectives?

Our police force is corrupt just as our government is. Police who *kill* should be tried for murder.

And, Senator Sanders is the best presidential candidate to help our entire country move forward in every way including and especially race equality.

I'm removing you now from the group.

It's clear you are only here to Campaign for Sanders and not join us in our conversations, discuss African American issues, or try to relate to us at a heart space level.
