Deandre Joshua’s body was found inside a burned car blocks from the protest. The 20-year-old was shot in the head before the car was torched.
Darren Seals, shown on video comforting Brown’s mother that same night, met an almost identical fate two years later. The 29-year-old’s bullet-riddled body was found inside a burning car in September 2016.
Four others also died, three of them ruled suicides.
— MarShawn McCarrel of Columbus, Ohio, shot himself in February 2016 outside the front door of the Ohio Statehouse, police said. He had been active in Ferguson.
— Edward Crawford Jr., 27, fatally shot himself in May 2017 after telling acquaintances he had been distraught over personal issues, police said. A photo of Crawford firing a tear gas canister back at police during a Ferguson protest was part of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch’s Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage.
— In October, 24-year-old Danye Jones was found hanging from a tree in the yard of his north St. Louis County home. His mother, Melissa McKinnies, was active in Ferguson and posted on Facebook after her son’s death, “They lynched my baby.” But the death was ruled a suicide.
— Bassem Masri, a 31-year-old Palestinian American who frequently livestreamed video of Ferguson demonstrations, was found unresponsive on a bus in November and couldn’t be revived. Toxicology results released in February showed he died of an overdose of fentanyl.
Black activists need to be armed all the time. Clearly there’s some crazy agenda going on.
Just remember, these are elected officials and our tax dollars are being used for this.
This is what its like serving people. People want straight answers to questions they fundamentally don’t understand. They don’t even understand the language you use. There is a very definite answer to what ‘wifi’ is, but a lot of oldies have their own understanding which is seperate from fact, but they believe to be fact. So when you try to explain it to them it gets to a point where they not only don’t understand it, but they don’t want to understand it.
These people here, its not that they don’t understand the tech at hand. Its that they simply don’t want to. And so they never will.
thing about “ace pride” that makes me so mad is the fact that the lgbt community’s origins, whether you like it or not, are deeply rooted in sexual freedom and acceptance. Sorry u guys are so disturbed by how a lot of historical lgbt artists drew sex, penises, breasts, etc. Literally every other group hates us for it so if people within lgbt start complaining or erasing gay people for their sexuality, or trans people for showing confidnece in their bodies through sexuality, you’re literally doing the exact thing we’re trying to combat.
I’ve seen a lot of hilarious strawmen about asexuality in my time, but “aces want to ban all nudity” is certainly a new one on me
When you start something out with “the thing about ace pride that makes me so mad” you know you’re about to read some freezing take. This was no different
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
