Certain Americans

[Photo description: Outdoors. Daytime. A couple posing for a photos on a apartment building balcony. On the left, a white man, Jerad Miller, is dressed as a white-face-painted character, the Joker. He is holding a Joker playing card in his hand. He is embracing a white woman, on his right, Amanda Miller, who has a similar white painted face and it dressed as the character Harley Quinn. In the background, trees.]

It’s funny (not haha, but strange) how suddenly, certain Americans feel terrified and under attack and unsafe and adamantly ‪#‎BlueLivesMatter‬ because of what ‪#‎MicahJohnson‬ allegedly did to cops and civilians in ‪#‎Dallas‬, but those same certain Americans didn’t seem to feel terrified and under attack and unsafe and adamantly #BlueLivesMatter when this white Nevada couple did something equally horrifying.

I wonder if that’s because those certain Americans actually share this couple’s values, beliefs, goals, and ideals.

From 2014:

“The married couple accused of fatally shooting two Las Vegas cops and an innocent bystander before killing themselves left a swastika-stamped manifesto on a slain officer’s body and warned neighbors of their planned attack days before, it was reported Monday.

A neighbor of suspected killer Jerad Miller claims the 31-year-old openly spoke of his plans to carry out a ‘Columbine’ attack against police before cops say he and his 22-year-old wife, Amanda, armed themselves with “hundreds of rounds of ammunition” and killed three people.

‘They were handing out white-power propaganda and were talking about doing the next Columbine,’ Brandon Moore told the Las Vegas Sun of Jerad Miller’s alleged forewarning.”
