MCDICK

my favorite is how meandering people are, even in the midst of a terrible emergency

they respond to “what is the emergency” with “well, the thing is, four weeks ago–”

and then he’s like “WHAT IS THE EMERGENCY RIGHT NOW”

and they’re like “so what happened this morning was, i said to my wife, i said–”

“WHAT IS CURRENTLY HAPPENING AT THIS MOMENT”

“oh i’m having a heart attack”

my second favorite is how specific he has to get sometimes

like, “what is your emergency?”

“i’m sitting in a pool of blood.”

“… is it… your blood?”

“yes i think so”

“do you know where it’s coming from?”

“probably the stab wound”

“have you been stabbed?”

The black Staten Island teen, fleeing a mostly white crew shouting racial epithets and waving a gun, collapsed and died last week from a fatal asthma attack.

Dayshen McKenzie died while running for his life from young white males who had a gun. 

Dayshen and his friends ran into the group of white guys near Checkers . White guy said “You got a problem? ” and one of Dayshen’s friends responded him with the same question. After that they pulled out a gun and  McKenzie and his friends ran for their lives hearing racial slurs from behind. Unfortunately, it was the day Dayshen forgot his inhaler at home…

“They were chasing him — that’s a crime. You’re hunting them because they’re black … You’re calling them a n—-r.”

“To me, it’s murder, to me, it’s a hate crime.”said    Fatigati, an ex-NYPD officer and 9/11 responder, who rushed to the aid of the dying McKenzie.

“I want justice for him. Somebody should be held accountable.” Tisha Richardson, McKenzie’s mom.

Another innocent life taken because of racism, another family mourns about the loss. We pray for you.

RIP  Dayshen McKenzie.
