THREAD: Sheriffs in Orlando shot Salaythis Melvin in the back and murdered him three weeks ago. Now Orange County wants to INCREASE the Sheriff's budget by $15 million. https://secure.everyaction.com/K9knWgQCGEefXcEuyVfn4w2
The Sheriff gets paid huge $$$ by Disney, corporate parent of @espn, including money to patrol the NBA bubble in Orlando. As they paint lofty slogans on hardwood courts, Disney continues to fund the militarized police force murdering Black people in Orlando.
Meanwhile, the Orange County School Board in Orlando is trying to spend $3 million to put 22 more armed cops in ELEMENTARY and MIDDLE SCHOOLS.
@mcarterwilliams you and your teammates @OrlandoMagic should get connected with the community organizers fighting for their lives against racist police violence and support their demands.
