JOGGING WHILE BLACK

[MirahM]

This has been happening for more than a hundred years. The only thing that's new is that it's getting media coverage.

Did the powers-that-be have an epiphany and discover their moral compasses? I highly doubt it. Does that matter? To me it does, because motivations reveal true intentions.

I brought up wildfires, I could have brought up any recent news story such as climate change. Lots of things are getting more media coverage, media is reporting 24-7. Cell phones etc etc people are doing thier own news, tik tok, youtube, blogs.

Which powers that be?

The most recent incident is what I was talking about-a young man walks up to a house and gets shot. Ducess mentioned the other incidents that happened recently as well for people being "in the wrong place at the wrong time"?
Or is there some other force at work here?

Sure, all the most recent victims weren't black, sure there as alos a recent shooting where a black person shot and killed other black people.

But to just respond with "Oh its been happening for 100 years" and "People's moral compasses haven't changed" isn't offering anything to some of these specific incidences. None of us can obviously know people's true motivations or true intentions unless they tell us and aren't lying.
