He’s just 12. Twelve. Just a lad a boy that’s all. Just like 12 year old Tamir Rice who was gunned down like a dog by the Police. Executed without that “Shadow of a Doubt” Death Penalty prisoners get at trial.
As I’ve said again, and again if young Tamir were a sandy haired White lad the Officers involved would never have shot him to pieces point blank in a moment as they did.
I think not even those Blue Eyes would have saved him if he had them like this beautiful child does.
Tamir is just another dead Nigger, and that’s that.
That’s all there is to say.
Once, long ago, a saw a man like this on the bus: a black man with brilliant blue eyes. He had an air of bitterness about him. It seemed as though he must be getting discrimination from both sides: from whites for being black, from blacks for having blue eyes as supposedly only white people do. Or so I guessed.
ReplyDeleteThis boy seems quite a bit happier than that. Maybe because be lives in Canada, as the maple leaf flag on his hat would suggest...? Maybe it's a whole different dispensation up there - like, with justice, you know.

We kill babies, and young kids in our overseas wars. However when we do it's usually an accident. Here at home it very deliberate. There's no mistake they're killed on purpose.
