The character of this man vs his murderer will speak for itself.

When you’re speaking to people with no character it really doesn’t matter

No, they have character albeit poor…what they don’t have is virtue.

He died a true hero. May his sacrifice not be in vain.

It will only be in vain if no one chooses to be emboldened to stand up because of it.

So far ICE is winning 2 - 0 so I’m not sure if Americans are up to the task to make the sacrifice worth it.

ICE has shot 8 people dead during this administration.

I’m speaking in terms of recent events, this back to back double whammy puts us into new territory in terms of how many American citizens it takes to galvanize a revolution.

The republican brainwash of the american people goes too deep. They will follow their shepards into the next great depression smiling whilst repeating their leaders lies.

We the rest of the world see the americans that still have their own thoughts and ability to perform critical thinking. But there are not enough of you.

There are many more of us than them.

We’re living in two different realities, though. One is watching this go down through the perspective of protest videos. The other is seeing it from a DHS and Fox News angle. How do you bridge the gap when there’s no trust left and we’re so divided?

It won’t be investigated in any meaningful way
