Murders of Alton Sterling, Philando Castile, and of Dallas PD:
All salient people of all races vehemently condemn the Dallas snipers. This isn't Black Lives Matter: it's more hate. Love to the officers' families.
Alton Sterling and Philando Castile were murdered. Absolutely no one wants more bloodshed. The snipers' atrocities led to still more horror for still more families.
Again, this isn't Black Lives Matter, which works to LESSEN bloodshed and horror for American families.
It hasn't even been three weeks since the Orlando massacre. So many people of all races, sexualities, and occupations are awash in grief.
When police declare an entire city in an open-carry state an active crime scene, no one can legitimately claim guns make us safer.
Last night, I was about to tweet Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On". Then I remembered he was murdered by a gun, too. Then I went to tweet "Give Peace a Chance" and, of course, John Lennon was murdered by a gun, too.
At 1:30am last night, I looked out my window and saw up and down my street that most everyone's lights were still on. America once again hasn't slept.
In the name of absolutely all those we've lost, we must do better.
And much respect to Dallas' Chief of Police, who seems to be handling the loss of his own w/ incredible comportment and grace.
