He didn’t need to shoot. It saddens me {that a} 16-year-old boy was shot within the head for merely going to the incorrect home to choose up his siblings. Ralph Yarl is his title, and it’s a miracle that he’s nonetheless alive. I really feel for his dad and mom and household, and hope that he can stay a full and wholesome life. Everyone knows that this was a race problem similar to each different problem in America. I’ve by no means understood racism and I by no means will.
At what level in our life did now we have this shift to the place now weapons are the reply for every little thing. What occurred to Yarl didn’t need to occur. There have been many issues that the White 84-year-old man might have finished. He might have first had a dialog with Yarl to grasp why he was at his home. If he was afraid, he might have referred to as the cops. There are such a lot of issues that might have occurred in a different way.
I’ve requested totally different individuals why Black individuals are hated a lot. One of the crucial widespread responses I get is “due to slavery.” To me, that’s not a suitable reply. To me, slavery is an excuse as a result of there may be completely no motive why I needs to be hated as a result of I’m a number of shades darker. If you happen to’re going to guage me, and in case you’re going to hate me, then decide and hate me primarily based on my character and never my pores and skin coloration. Life is difficult sufficient, and all this mindless killing is ridiculous. When will sufficient be sufficient? Don’t shoot. Let’s simply stay.
