I actually disagree. Historically, black women have been treated unfairly in the court system. Black women who have murdered in self defense are historically sentenced.

The reason while the Kyle issue is sensitive to us is because we have a hard time understanding why white people don’t understand our protests and show up under a different political perspective,. We have tried to explain to white people in a plethora of ways that we are hurting and desperate for change.

My father had multiple police draw guns on him for a simple traffic violation. He was black, a PROFESSIONAL, yet drive Sn expensive car. They were biased. He’s been followed by police taking a walk in his neighborhood. A friend of mine was stopped and his car was searched without a warrant because as the cop explained, “He didn’t look like he could afford a car that expensive”… it was a gift from his parents.

My first cousin was waiting to be seated at Denny’s. Honor roll student, and graduate of Ohio State (nothing “thuggish” about him. For no reason, a hostess called the police on him.

My Uncle was beaten by the police for a theft he didn’t commit… BEFORE they even did an investigation and discovered he was innocent.

We explain this to white people and many refuse an attempt at understanding. It’s as if you think we’re making it all up or somehow deserve it because you think we’re all criminals who have it coming.

So the idea that he would show up with a weapon under the pretenses that outrage should be countered political is distressing to us. We are angry at him because we are tired of not being heard on this issue. It’s extremely traumatic to say the least


Sure some of the protests got out of hand but 90% of them were peaceful. Statistical data will back that up because I’m a paid researcher and read it with my own eyes.
