During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

Black people told y’all they’re never letting you in no matter how much they’ll use your own racism to their benefit. Theirs. Not yours. Ever.

When will we start naming streets after children who were victims of school shootings?

GunnyJKJ @gunnyjkj.bsky.social · 17h

Naming streets after Charlie Kirk is a slap in the fucking face.
This is being considered here in Florida.
Please don’t EVER try to make a scenario where things were or are getting better in America.

I asked AI how many black on white massacres have there been on American soil since 1619. This was AIs conclusion. What they scared of then? Why all the guns for a behavior speckled across America at best?

Those days are long gone...if they ever existed at all.

At least Henry Ford had the right idea to pay his workers enough so that they could afford to buy his cars. These companies today don't give a damn about the people who work for them...
