What’s your thoughts on the Botham Jean‘s trial and his killer only getting 10 years with eligible for parole in 5 years? Would you have embrace and forgive the killer who murdered your family member like Jean’s family?

Black folks always forgive and embrace white people. This is nothing new. It’s that white Jesus. Time after time. It’s been obvious racist plots against Black folks & Black people will ignore it, protect, defend, forgive white people. Actual genocidal, hate-filled agendas that whites have admitted and still get love from the Black community. It’s just not the same energy vice versa or with Black folks embracing all other Black folks. 

No. I couldn’t. Forgiveness is difficult for me and it’s damn near impossible to forget even if I get to the point of letting go. I will be reminded of what they did because I will miss my family member and know they are the reason my family member is not here with me.
