Like they did Dylann Roof? Planning and carrying out a terrorist attack must be a stressful event. Forgetting to eat while planning to murder innocent victims must be addressed. Dylann Roof did extensive internet research including researching black churches. He conducted multiple trips to the Emanuel AME Church in the months before the massacre, planning his attack. He waited until his 21st birthday when he was able to buy the gun used to execute his victims. The terrorist even created his own website including writing his manifesto racist ramblings in detail. Dylann Roof planned the murders, even designing his own logo which included his initials, a swastika, and the number 88.
The white supremacist packed up his ammunition and gear and once again drove more than an hour to the Emanuel AME Church. Emanuel AME black parishioners welcomed him to join their bible study. The terrorist pretended to pray for about an hour with his future victims. He then stood up and starting shooting, murdering nine church members. Roof went on the run in a vehicle with his weapon. Dylann Roof was apprehended in a vehicle traffic stop with a .45-caliber Glock pistol in his possession. The white supremacist terrorist was apprehended unharmed and without a scratch. The care was so extreme that he was offered Burger King to satisfy his hunger due to not having time to eat in the midst of murdering people and evading the police.
Gregory Bush, who murdered two black victims at a Kroger in Kentucky, was also a white supremacist. Not surprisingly, he tried to enter a predominately black church minutes before the Kroger attack. In fact, after the killings and the attempted murder of another black man, the terrorist Gregory Bush told a white man (who himself was armed) in the parking lot, a witness to the murders, “Don’t shoot me [and] I won’t shoot you. Whites don’t shoot whites.” Gregory Bush was apprehended without harm.
Payton Gendron, the white supremacist terrorist who murdered 10 black people grocery shopping in Buffalo, NY was also apprehended without harm. Like the others, the terrorist planned his attack specifically to target and kill as many black people as possible. He drove more than 200 miles to the area again after conducting reconnaissance of the area for months. Like many other white terrorists, he was active online, posted ramblings and had prior incidents with police. Yet, he like others, were allowed to continue unabated and execute their very public plans. And live. Did he also receive his Burger King?
Black men aren’t able to walk down the street minding their own business without being accosted and killed while holding nothing but a drink and candy. They aren’t able to jog in a neighborhood without being hunted and killed. They aren’t able to drive without being pulled over and killed. Blacks aren’t able to sit in their own apartment and eat ice cream without police barging in and killing us. Black men and women aren’t able to sleep without being murdered in bed. Nor are they able to protect their home and its occupants. Our churches were always a target to white supremacy. When we protest, they target us with bullets, batons, tear gas, fire hoses, dogs, and vehicles. And now, we cannot grocery shop without fearing for our lives.
However, white men can blow up federal building, have armed stand-offs with federal police, storm state capitals, the nation capital, and kill with planning and without remorse. They often receive grace, a hug from the judge and forgiveness from white Christians and the families of the victims. They can defend their statements and actions and drink beer with the President. The majority of mass shootings and terrorist attacks in the U.S. are committed by white men, not blacks or Muslims. Meanwhile, the only act of deterrence the black community has to look forward to is a visit from the President along with his “thoughts and prayers”.
It is open season on the black community. O’Biden’s primary concern is supporting Afghanistan refugees, sending billions to support Ukraine and shutting down any talks of reparation for black African-American descendants of slavery and oppression. In the interim, Kamala is in hiding waiting until the 2024 election or until Grandpa Joe passes away in his sleep…whichever comes first.
