I sidelined too.
I got beat up pretty bad speaking out.
I let myself get bullied into submission. I allowed my affinity for law enforcement back me into a corner.
What I have decided recently is that I do not have to choose. If people can’t understand that I am fully capable of caring about all people at the same time, that is their problem to solve, not mine.
I am done sugar coating. I don’t understand why everybody doesn’t get the parallels.
The Daily Show did a great job illustrating this one or the other proposition that I faced and backed down from.
Never again.

I get to love and care for whomever I want. I want all people to be safe.
I stand for that. But I know all lives do not matter until black lives matter.
Black lives matter.
