I made the mistake of watching the news today and was reminded after a 15 minutes segment of the many reasons I consciously chose to opt out of the loop. I can’t do it. I can’t tune in and carry on with my day. I can no longer watch the news and go about my business or thrive as much as I normally would. 90 rounds of bullets. 8 to 1. What is that even about? Why? How… How could they? I don’t understand this place, this approach, this cruelty, this animalistic rage targeting black and brow bodies, everyday, all the time. 90 rounds of bullets. 60 + holes in his body, shredded to pieces. In the name of? What for? I don’t understand this. I don’t understand how this could continue to happen or how the police would deem it appropriate to handcuff Jayland’s dead body. Standard procedure - they say. Not to mention the carnage in Highland Park. 6 fatal casualties and many more injured and yet law enforcement was able to apprehend the suspect without harm… You’ve got to be kidding me. I feel sick. They are arbitrarily killing us, violating our bodies, and that’s all there is to it. A bit of outcry. A new hashtag. That’s all there is to it. Why? Because we are tired. Because we can’t keep up. Because we all try our best to keep moving forward and have to protect our heart space and mental health. Because it’s just too fucking much.
