    Several people in Flint, Michigan have alerted me to this. A Black family says an older white child set their 5 year old boy on fire. Here's the post from the family: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=652096225239224&set=a.175440386238146&type=3&theater … Here's the local news story: https://www.mlive.com/news/flint/2019/05/5-year-old-boy-critical-after-suffering-burns-flint-police-investigating.html … Tracking closely.pic.twitter.com/P9URfK9K2d

        Cue the neighbors and family of the alleged perpetrator- “He is a good kid.” “He was bullied as a child.“ “He was radicalized by the internet” “He was hooked on prescription fentanyl.”

        Racism and evil are less the point than battery on a minor. Federal charges carry less severe penalties than State or Local will. What is the LOCAL DA doing?

        As a parent the time for crying is out the window. It’s time to seek punishment for whoever did this to your child. As a parent u suppose to protect your children with your life and fight for them with your life

        What in the hell is wrong with people? Who raises someone who would do this to another human being? This insanity and cruelty seems to be worsening.

        I hates saying it, but the racist families teach their kids that POC are not human. They'll treat this like their kid just set a feral cat on fire. Sociopathic behaviour regardless, they need a psychological evaluation done.

        That poor baby. This hurts my soul. My sister suffered severe burns as a teen and the pain was so incredibly intense she couldn’t bare it. No baby should have to deal with that kind of pain. His poor family now has to watch him suffer. This is any parents nightmare.

        That is beyond horrible, are the parents of the serial killer in the making aware that this is what they are raising?
