A trial is set to begin in the #Pittsburgh #synagogue #massacre. The 2018 shooting was the #deadliest #antisemitic #attack in U.S. history. Eleven people were killed and two were injured at the #TreeofLife synagogue. A 50-year-old man is accused of attacking with an #AR-5 rifle and three #handguns while shouting #antisemitic #slurs..#Juryselection starts today but could take weeks because the #massacre drew such widespread attention.#TreeofLife #HateCtimes https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2023/04/24/pittsburgh-synagogue-shooting-trial/

#Intro, cont’d

Today I’m an #AdultRecoveringAsshole. It took me until #Trayvon’s murder and #SandyHook to see that #AssaultRifles,#Handguns and my once-beloved #NRA were not making anybody safer. #SYG #StandYourGround laws let a White start a fistfight, end it with a gun, murder a POC and claim #SelfDefense.

The NRA is the #StochasticTerror arm of the #FSB, inciting racial violence to destabilize Democracy. A cop’s badge is a BIPOC hunting license.

#Woke now. I am so so sorry I took so long.
