I wouldn’t exactly call anger tears “crying”. Crying suggests a steady flow of tears where as anger tears are usually just a handful at most.

But yes I literally had a couple of tears thinking about it. In my experience I have both experienced firsthand and seen unimaginable suffering. The English language lacks the proper words to describe how awful this suffering is. I could explain it to you and you still wouldn’t understand just how bad it is.

But I’ve only ever heard a grown ass man call out for his mother twice. Once with George Floyd, and once with Tyre Nichols. I know pain, and I know suffering, but just like if I tried to explain the suffering I know to you. You would be unable to truly comprehend it. I can’t comprehend the pain and suffering that those 2 men endured.

I don’t care what you did. No human deserves to die at the hands of another human while calling out for their mother.

Just to be clear. I’m not a great nice person. I have injected a pregnant woman with heroin because she was too dope sick to do it herself, and way worse. I have led a pretty abhorrent life.

But even amongst monsters some crimes are inexcusable.

You ain't special. Abbatoir footage gets me pretty good.

I’m not a vegetarian, and I know that what I’m about to say is kind of hypocritical. But, there has to be a better way in regards to livestock for meat. The way they are treated is awful.

Also, I was totally prepared for that to go the other way. Hehehehe

Lab grown meat sounds like a good solution to the problem

Hey, as long as it tastes good, and is affordable. I’m all for it.

I mean I’m not against it, but that whole law thing gets in the way. However, if the end of the world comes you better believe I’m eating someone.
