Black Lives Matter

I am so sadden by this post. Again I have to bring awareness to yet again another tragedy. But here I am, doing it and holding my head high in the mist of it. Recently two more black men were murdered by careless police officers. I am here to give my views, shine light, and kill a little ignorance all in one for you all. All feedback is always welcomed.

Unless you live under a rock, you have seen all of the senseless acts of violence towards our black brothers and sisters. Hurts to see people that are supposed to be protecting us, boldly just shoot us down. The worse part is, no justice is being served.

Now I respect and appreciate all of our brave police officers doing their jobs the right way, and risking their lives everyday. Taking proper protocol, making the necessary arrests and attacks. But I believe they all need to speak up, point out what is clearly wrong. If you are silent for something as big as this, you truly are part of the problem. We need to all stand together, protest, scream for justice to be served. These murders are being seen on camera, full blown proof, and the system just decides to look the other way. Unfortunately we have many cowards hiding behind a badge. A real police officer is someone caring, fearless, intelligent, and aware. If you fear an unarmed, and harmless human being, and you want to apply to become a police officer, do us all a favor and go work retail at your local mall instead. So police officers if you read this, I ask for you to stand behind the citizens you swore to protect, and not behind the murderer with your same uniform.

As for the Black Lives Matter, I stand with it forever. Some are are saying "all lives matter" in response. That is irrelevant, we are stating the obvious. Problem is, black lives being something that does matter, clearly does not to others. So we will continue to shine light on this issue. Continue to stand up for what is right, keep talking about it to others every chance you get, and keep fighting until changes are made. I do not stand by violence, but it does not surprise me the way people are lashing out. We need to do more protests, shut down more streets, scream louder, get out to more cities, states, countries. Get new contracts in order, get new laws to make way, more testing for people entering the force. There are so many things we can try and change if we all work together. 

I am grateful to have this platform to speak my mind, and give awareness to something so important to me. I do not want to fear about any of my loved ones being killed. I want to be able to voice my opinion, and have changes made. My mother risked coming to this country to give me a better life, because America was a safe country, seems to me some things have changed. Let us all be one voice. There is a Black Lives Matter march today Sunday July 10th, 2016 at Lake Eola, from 6pm-930pm. I hope you all can make it, let us be heard. Contact me if you need any help getting downtown, or have any questions. Thank you so much for the ongoing support from you all. Be safe, and remember to always love and allow to be loved. Xo
