Calls for Justice for Aurora’s Violinist Elijah McClain Grow

Elijah McClain was a kind and gentle 23 year old who worked as a massage therapist in Aurora, CO. On his lunch breaks from work, Elijah would go to the animal shelters and play violin for the animals because he thought that they were lonely in their cages and thought that the music would calm them. 

In August 2019, Elijah went to the gas station to buy some iced tea for himself and his cousins. Because he suffered from anemia he would often wear a ski/ runner mask over his face to stay warm. On his way home, the Aurora Police department were called to reports of a “suspicious man.” 

(Warning: for violent description) Elijah was apprehended by a group of three cops, despite committing NO crime and being unarmed. A struggle occurred, and he was held in a very dangerous carotid hold around his neck while he cried for help, cried out that he couldn’t breathe, cried out that he was nonviolent and couldn’t even kill a fly, and was repeatedly throwing up. Elijah weighed a mere 140 pounds. You can hear on the audio footage, an officer instructing another to move their body camera out of view.

While 3 Aurora Police Dept officers violently restrained him they called Aurora Fire Dept, who injected him with ketamine (a powerful drug used to tranquilize horses or in surgeries by a trained anesthesiologist and illegal to be administered by anyone else) even though he was already cuffed and calm.

He went into cardiac arrest , slipped into a coma, and his family was advised to take him off life support 6 days later.

The cops were transferred to another department but never received charges.

#WAKEUP

*villanelle and eve immediately sitting down and staying quiet*

oppression vs. privilege

Words cannot express how grateful I am that they have highlighted Villanelle's family difficulties ,it just explains everything:the trust issues,anger problem,violence as a coping mechanism and also this shows us how much family/environment in which you spent your childhood affects you,and If before I would think that she was "black sheep/problematic child" because of her naughty personality,now I'm clearly seeing how all family members have it.

1.How Borya hits his head every time something didn't work out.

2.How Petya(Peter) uses bat to smack sofa to avoid venting anger at people

3.How Ylya with this expression shot pig right in the head, I can't be sure about angry issues,but how is she so good in shooting and how she did headshot with this cold-blooded face like...maybe she hold some unreleased rage too.(this expression reminded me of Villanelle in s1,when she was killing that office guy)

4.And finally mother.Even if you look at the drawing you see how big her figure is in front of the house(the family role) and the fact that she's standing alone(unwavering power over family members) and the fact that on the picture you can see "mummy" instead of "mommy" which I believe represents how she foreign to feelings(emotions of others) and how she hides her true nature over that kind attitude.

How cruel she was towards Villanele,how angry and pissed she behaves when they're alone,but still Villanelle speaks to her on her knees representing the power difference between them.(and also Villanelle's love for her as a mother figure, despite the pain)

And in the last scene she still wearing outfit,which her mother gave to her and she's shaking and crying which seems to me like she killed her,released her pain out,but still not overcome that issue

P.S :Am I not russian enough to know this drink,cause I swear to god,I've never seen it before
