Alright, so I've been kosher up until this point but my blogger fans are begging me to push and turn on my "edgy, opinionated, sister girl side." So here it goes!
I can honestly say that when I saw this story, which I've been following since it broke just as everyone else has, I was in disbelief. It still isn't' real that this young man is dead and that this nightmare occurred but a few counties from me. However, unlike most people, the color of his skin is irrelevant. I see the point being made about him being stereotyped, get it. I see the point being made about if it were a white teen the outcome would be different, get it. But as a Mom...SOMEONE'S BABY IS GONE AND IS NEVER COMING BACK! As a mom, that stings like HELL! A child? My baby? Is gone and dead for some reckless, ignorant, foolishness??? REALLY? You are a GROWN MAN, you honestly felt threatened by my son and his...skittles?
