It’s absolutely devastating to watch this. I’d love to echo the sentiment I’ve seen on social media and say, “how could anyone watch this and not be devastated?” But I’ve become too jaded. The people doing and celebrating this terrible shit are the people who tortured their pets like Sid from Toy Story as kids. This is exactly what the “anti-woke” folks want—they want to be able to laugh at people with disabilities after they illegally arrest them without reading them their rights or giving them their phone call.

There is no empathy from these people.

I started thinking, “When did this country lose all of its empathy?” But the truth is—and it’s a truth we all know—there never was any empathy to begin with in this country, and we continue to show our true colors as a country more and more every day.

We aren’t a democracy or a republic; we aren’t capitalists or socialists; we live in a corporatocracy, and no action or decision is made based on the will of the people or what’s good for the people—only what provides corporations the most profits.

Because if America actually cared about people—even just a little bit—this shit wouldn’t happen to anyone, citizen or otherwise. Instead, we are a barbaric, third-world, fascist corporatocracy. And we pray to one god.

“Appear to Contradict” really?! The videos flat out prove the government is lying. You can clearly see him holding a phone before he’s taken to the ground by a group of gestapo. Then one of the thugs pulls the gun away from Alex Jeffrey Pretti’s holster and runs away with it while he continues to be beaten on by the others, moments before they murder him—while he’s on the ground, defenseless— in cold blood.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ALL OF THIS. I’m at a loss for words at this point. There are just too many hypocritical contradictions and lies and travesties happening every single day. If you’re not livid and losing your mind right now, if you’re okay with people dying so the rich can get tax breaks and the poor can lose their food stamps and they can kick a few brown people out of the country, then you can go fuck yourself.

Why is it this country has deported millions of people over the years, but now it requires warrantless searches, requiring people to have their papers, kidnapping children, deporting citizens, and murder to do the job now?

“Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace”

This is pure insanity. What a childish, insecure, petty old man. The narcissism and selfishness to try to take over a country for what you think is a personal slight is next level. And as every sane person knows, it wasn’t a slight because he doesn’t deserve jack shit; this only goes to prove that even more, along with every other action he’s taken in the last decade.

How insecure and petty do you have to be to have the name Kennedy blocked out with black tape until they can add your name. Last Trump news for the day, I promise/hope…
