      My Latest. Yesterday an armed white man, Gregory Bush, walked into a Kentucky grocery store & murdered 2 different Black grandparents. Then told a white man not to worry because he wouldn't kill white people.

      Meet Maurice Stallard. He was shot & killed in front of his 12 year old grandson by a white supremacist in Kentucky yesterday. He is the father of Louisville's Chief Racial Equity Officer, Kellie Watson, a brilliant Black woman who works in the Mayor's Office. A great man.pic.twitter.com/3XFQeNwIbD

      Meet Vickie Lee Jones. She was shot & killed by a white supremacist YESTERDAY in the parking lot of a grocery store in Louisville. She was a kind, warm, giving soul. She just retired from the VA Hospital. Moved to her new neighborhood to be safe. Murdered by a bigot.pic.twitter.com/ZAS7cpQvzY

          Louisville is in Jefferson County. The D.A, known as the Commonwealth Attorney in KY is Thomas B. Wine. Please call his office at 502-574-6336 and demand that these heinous murders be prosecuted as hate crimes. If you still fax, you can send your opinion to 502-574-5366.

          Shaun, you are tracking a terrible climate of killing, the murders of black people at white hands, and more. Thank you for being so vigilant. What is happening in our country at this moment in time is ugly, and fomented by the tone at the top. My heart aches.

          White, domestic terrorism is on the rise. It’s more dangerous and damaging to this country than any other form of terrorism. This man absolutely deserves to be prosecuted for hate crimes on top of murder. This country has to stand up against racism and it must start locally.

          This is so sickening. There needs to be something done & these are hate crimes! I saw someone post where we can call the Louisville DA.. I’d do that & see what’s going on !!

          When are we going to take retribution into our own hands & send a message to these white supremacists that killing our family will not come without major consequences. We’re being slaughtered in these streets & we seem to do is talk about it and march around. Time out on that bs!

          We will lose much more. We are already fighting a difficult fight, but retribution isn’t the way. We are minority and the violence will only extinguish us and our children.

          You speak from a position of fear. History shows that the courage of the so-called minority can overcome the cowardice of the majority. Actually, we (the supposed group of us who are against racism and ws) are not the minority. Are you saying there are more enemies than allies?

          So, you would prefer to live in fear than to die with courage. Got it 👌. Doesn’t sound like much of a life. You’re scared & that’s ok, but what are you going to do when it’s you or your family being victimized? At some point, you have to fight the bully back. Think about it.
