Thank you everyone for your concern. I& #39;m home and safe. Being in that precinct I witnessed a handful of things that showed me just what we are fighting for.
Peacefully protesting, not laying a hand on any police four officers ripped me from the front lines threw me to the ground and hit me with batons. In the moment with my face to the pavement and a knee in my back, every nerve in me was waiting to feel a knee on my neck.
The young man they arrested and detained me with Jonathan Clemons ( @DAREALCHIBABY) was sitting peacefully with his sign when they dragged him and beat him far worse than me. Yet they say we are the violent ones.
When we got to the precinct, Officer Doyle said this: "Everyone has control of your now destiny" I responded, "George Floyd controlled his too?" He said "Yup and Micheal brown, they were criminals, wait till they pull the evidence." THAT IS THE MINDSET THEY ALL HAVE.
He then said "If it were up to me I would let y& #39;all all die and just go pick up the bodies" .....No I am not paraphrasing. THIS IS WHY WE FIGHT FOIR OUR CAUSE. WE ARE FIGHTING FOR OUR LIVES. THEY DONT CARE ABOUT US.
There was also a man in there since 2AM YESTERDAY MORNING. He hadn& #39;t been fed until we were at 2AM this morning (we were brought in at 3pm).
They were discouraging those beaten not to go to the hospital saying it would extend their processing. A man who had his wrist broken peacefully protesting chose to go to the hospital. They told him their going to give him a felony for "attacking the police Capitan"
THIS FIGHT CANT END HERE.
