Rolling the dice

this was his tweet from November 7, too

Bethann Hardison on racism in the fashion industry.

He even wrote a sequel to Poe’s only novel, and numerous essays about how great an author Poe was.

I yield Staring down at the abyss Waves are violently swirling Crashing down in unnatural patterns Yellow eyes watch me as I drown I live Only to laugh at what I've missed The ocean is cold yet it's burning "Surviving is all that matters" It whispers as I go down I die For it's not worth anymore to dismiss Those eyes in themselves are submerging I should leave decisions to my betters The gods watch closely as I bow I breathe Crying so loud it's hard to miss Pain and pleasure always merging Forever trapped in dark matter I guess I'll be reborn in a while

Breonna Taylor was not sleep when she was shot: true, she was awoken by the battering ram used to crash her door in at 1am.

Police didn't shoot first: also true. Kenneth shot an officer in the leg when they entered and, naturally, because they're all scared incompetent knobs, they responded in a hail of bullets, eight of which entered Breonna.

The cops claim to have knocked and announced themselves. This is a lie. No neighbors heard them announce themselves. Furthermore, they obtained a no-knock warrant specifically for the sole purpose of carrying out a drug raid by catching a drug dealer off guard and forcibly entering without warning (such as a knock and announcement). They wanted that specific warrant so much they misrepresented evidence to a judge to get it. So they did all that and got a warrant saying they did not have to knock or announce themselves and then just went on ahead and did it anyway? Cause they're just so polite?

They were also in civilian clothing and either not wearing body cams or had them turned off. So I'm not even sure how their word was just taken on all that.

They have indicted ONE cop for something that had nothing to do with her murder, it was for endangering the lives of OTHER residents by opening fire inside of an apartment complex.

A reminder that the person they were looking for, Breonna's ex-boyfriend, was already in custody at the time they murdered her.

A reminder that the mail investigator or whoever they claimed to get a tip from to get the warrant said they lied.

A reminder that the cops submitted an almost blank report with blatant lies, including that Breonna was not injured.

A reminder the prosecution tried to get Breonna's ex-boyfriend to implicate her in his crimes in April, after they had killed her.

A reminder that because of Breonna's case, no-knock warrants are no longer allowed in Louisville (but they knocked right?)
