I never want to read these words again: after a routine traffic stop. They’re always preceded by the same multiple choice madness again and again and again.
But humanity reveals itself too, which in this case are Tyre Nichols’s photos that HCR so wisely links to so we grasp the life stolen.

TYRE was on his Fed Ex Shift break a short distance his Mother's home. There was NOTHING "routine" about this stop. "SCORPIONs" are NOT Traffic Cops.The Memphis Police Chief Davis said she saw "no proof" [ no evidence ] for the "stop" which has major legal implications.These criminal elements are squarely raised by the state charges. As the horrific acts become state court facts, findings or possibly the subject of plea deals with 1 of the 2 '"sheriffs" who appeared at the scene, I expect Federal violation of civil rights charges (plural) asap. No medical aid for over 20 minutes while SCORPIONS fist bumped which may be the source of evidence against the 2 "sheriffs" who did nothing. HUGE fact, you can hear the Dispatcher ask, " [w]hat are the charges?". There was no answer. SUNDAY UPDATE. Additionaly, two (2) Memphis Fire Department personnel also being investigated as the 2 FD's may have had a contract duty to render prompt medical aid even if they failed humane duty.
So tired we cannot see each other’s humanity by looking in each other’s eyes and seeing with our hearts.
The weeping, the pain of mothers, of fathers, of brothers, of sisters, of friends, of family, and of so many deeply affected by, impacted by the violence, the callous disregard for another’s life.
Will the violence, the callous disregard for another’s life ever stop…..

And we weep.
And still we weep.
So tired of the weeping. So tired that mothers cannot save their sons. So tired.

Absolutely deserves Federal hate crime indictments.

Yes. Weep is the word. It is such a sad crying.
I say his name.
Godspeed, Tyre.
