Sorry not sorry for your inconvenience.
Sorry not sorry that the revolution is Televised, Tweeted, Snapped, Ticktocked, Facebooked, Instaed, and Op-Eded in the New York and Los Angeles Times.
Sorry not sorry if you choose to focus on looters – that you would rather call rioters – shame on you!
Sorry not sorry if you want to focus on George Floyd’s criminal record and the fact that he had drugs in his system.
Sorry not sorry if you want to point out that you think Black Lives Matters is a leftist – in your opinion – organization.
Sorry not sorry that you want to blame Trump – who has nothing to do with this!
I am disheartened that none of the positive stuff is not resonating with you.
Who are you to point out laws that you know nothing about?? You know nothing of racism in the true sense. Racism that started hundreds of years ago when African countrymen and women were torn from their homeland and brought to this foreign land to be enslaved!
It started then and before!!
I am also, sorry you are silent now. This is not the time to be silent, no matter what your opinion.
This is a tipping point in our global society and George Floyd was the lightening rod!
If you do not know what to say – just say I am thinking of you and I love you. I will try to learn.
I do not understand, but I will learn about this and TRY to understand.
Not because I am suggesting you do, but because YOU CHOOSE TO.
Perhaps your children can grow up in a place where racism goes down in the history books as a very dark time on our earth.
