And the hatred don't stop ...
Three men (I prefer to call them boys) were arrested in Henry County, GA Friday thanks to a prank that only they found to be funny. The pranksters stole a mannequin from the fire department training facility (of all places to steal a mannequin you go right into the police's backyard?!), painted the dummy "black", spray painted KKK on the chest of the dummy, and then proceeded to hang it over the damn freeway overpass ... can you say mental?
This clearly shows that with all the fights against racism taking place today that some people will just never learn the meaning of respect. It's one thing to dislike a person due to the color of their skin, although it's wrong, it has become widely accepted throughout history that some people are just imbeciles that way. But blatant disrespect is something COMPLETELY different!! To hang a "black" mannequin from a freeway with the letters "KKK" on the chest of it is ... I'm at a loss for words here. I don't even know what to call it! No matter what you or I call it, racism lives on in America and it's apparent that it ain't leavin in a hurry.
So, those of us with decency and respect for all human beings should be sure to rock ALL BLACK tomorrow, September 20th, in support of equality for ALL PEOPLE!! Not just black people or minorities as some are making it out to be about, but for ALL PEOPLE!!! Yes, the Jena6 sparked this movement, however, it's been a long time coming and its time for those of us who truly believe that this is a good cause to stand up and do at least the minimum and show our support.
