President Joe Biden called Monday for action to end the type of “hate-fueled violence” that authorities said motivated a white man to fatally shoot three Black people at a Florida store over the weekend. Biden said people must speak out about injustice.
“We can’t let hate prevail, and it’s on the rise. It’s not diminishing,” Biden said at the White House as he met with civil rights advocates and the children of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. on the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington.
“Silence, I believe, we’ve all said many times, silence is complicity,” Biden said. “We’re not going to remain silent and, so, we have to act against this hate-fueled violence.”
Black people getting killed for being black again. LGBTQ people being the fodder of legal bigotry again. Death traps for foreign people. They’re just people, folks. Like you and me.
Sometimes I think we are only in a cruel regressive rough patch in our history and will realign. But, I wonder how long it will take.
Guess I’ll watch Simone Biles defying physics again. Always makes me feel better.
Americans will never learn. This would be maybe the only year you could run an independent but less than 10% vote in primaries.
You’re all fucked and none of you even care.
