Oh for fuck’s sake. Imply whatever you want but my point was extremely clear. Goodbye.

I never said the attraction itself is the problem, and I’m not sure why you’re so determined to argue with a point I didn’t make but enjoy yourself.

You missed my point. Obviously “damaged” (I hate that term, but whatever) people fall in love and get married all the time. Including it on a list of things you like about a person is a red flag. And yes, I do judge abusers who use belittling terms like “damaged” to make their victims believe they don’t deserve better.…

It was declared a crime scene a couple days after it happened. It was a high profile murder-suicide case. I’m surprised you didn’t come across any other articles.

Are you joking? It was ruled homicide by a grand jury.

“You’re damaged” isn’t a compliment period.

Yup. Any time someone lists “damaged” as a quality they find attractive about you, that’s a red flag. That word doesn’t fit in the list but it’s telling he chose to include it.

He was murdered, along with his siblings, by his abusive white parents - who also coerced him into this staged photo op. And it serves as a warning about using complicated human moments as simplistic “racism can be solved with a hug” propaganda (which people have done with both of these images online.)

I’m aware, that was my point.

Ugh. Nothing against the Jean family if this is how they need to process their grief, but I thought we’d already learned our lesson about using these types of images as simplistic propaganda.

Wait, is this a thing? I once had a 15-year-old boy in my summer school class who made me feel uneasy for some reason I couldn’t put my finger on, and he turned out to be a 22-year-old Ukrainian national who’d overstayed his visa and was paying some family to “adopt” him. He’s now in prison on a bunch of charges.

So since law enforcement is clearly unequipped and underfunded to address this problem, when can we start hunting down and killing these people?

I was going to say, I commend your restraint and patience. If someone did this to my kids it would take every fiber of my being not to parade their severed head around town as a deterrent. In fact I think parents and guardians may have to start doing that, given the overall pathetic lack of response from law…

I’m not sure who’s a bigger asshole: you, or whatever asshole took you out of the grays.

You should probably take the word “Feminist” out of your name because nothing about this shitty comment or your other shitty comment is remotely feminist.

Yeah, honestly I’m surprised these supposedly street-smart, hardened criminals allowed this little clown into their gang in the first place. I get that he was bringing in revenue, but I would’ve given him some fake ‘Honorary Blood’ badge and never allowed him access to real gang activities. Getting caught and snitching…

But he WAS one of those goons causing harm. He’s just trying to rat his way out of paying for it now. People dislike snitches because they’re fundamentally dishonorable. If you claim to be a stone cold gangster like this melted lollipop did, walk the walk. But peddling, participating in and profiting from violence, and…

Cool story!

That’s a lot to lay on the tiny shoulders of a child. Do you feel this much “ire” every time you see a white girl with a messy bun? All children look unkempt after running around and playing all day, but only Black children get maligned as a disgrace to their entire race for doing what kids do. Can they ever just live…

Many, many older people tried to warn him. But I think it’s apparent just from looking at him that this is not a person who takes common sense advice.
