Dear Stephanie Flowers

Dear Sen. Stephanie Flowers,

You recently made national news when you stood up against a Stand Your Ground Law in Arkansas. You verbatim said that daily on the news were stories of black men being killed by white men and this would just give them an excuse to commit murder?

Where are those stories? I haven't seen any, and trust me I've looked.

I did find the following during my search:In 2017, 40 white persons were arrested for murder, but 92 black people were arrested for murder. 77% of Arkansas is white and only 15% is black. That doesn't really make much sense does it? Shouldn't the black murder rate be reason of logic be 20??? If you are only fifteen percent of the population logic would be that the murder rate would be similar. Instead, the murder rate for blacks is nearly five times what it should be.

Call me crazy but I see people saying we should do away with police and monitor ourselves, then people like you come out against stand your ground laws. Seems to me like what is really wanted is open season on people who are not of color. That's the only logical conclusion.

My mind is open. Tell me about all these black men being murdered by whites on a daily basis and I would happily change my stance. In the meantime, you might want to reconsider yours.

Sincerely,

Feral Blue Chicken

The Tragic Death of Gabrielle Barrett

Gabrielle Barrett was a four and a half year old little girl who had only been living with her mother, Candice Diaz for three months when she died on New Year's Eve at the hands of her mother and her mother's boyfriend, Brad Fields. The child was covered in bruises and suffered burns allegedly because she ran her own bath. Prior to this time, she had spent her entire life with her Grandmother, Cynthia Diaz who failed her horrendously by leaving her in the care of her mother. The grandmother claimed the child had to live with her mother to attend pre-k schooling. This school attendance is not mandatory, but is optional. In most states you are not required to enroll your child in school until the age of six. The grandmother stated during the preliminary hearing she saw Gabby on Christmas and she appeared fine. Her hair and teeth were fine, though allegedly she had head lice (not life threatening and easily treated). She did everything but backflips to defend her daughter...

Seandell Jackson

Seandell Jackson was convicted of murdering Nathan Potter who was a student at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He had attempted to rob him, however Nathan was not carrying any cash and was merely traveling from one location to another at the time of his death. There is nothing special about Seandell, other than he is the poster child for why prisons exist, and that he and his family are responsible for the choices he made that day. When he was sentenced for first-degree intentional homicide and attempted robbery, he was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole, he screamed obscenities, and had to be tackled and pepper sprayed. He was not alone in his outbursts, his family yelled out as well: " I hate you! I hate you all!", " I hate all of you!", " God's the judge" . Funny to bring God into things when your family member has committed which God forbids. Perhaps they were absent on the Sunday that was being taught. It's easy ...

Tabitha Buck

Tabitha Buck was convicted in the murder of Lauri Show along with Lisa Michelle Lambert. Clearly, time has been kind to neither woman. Inside sources tell us Tabitha is quiet, keeps to herself and avoids all unnecessary drama. When the Supreme Court ruled that life sentences without parole were unconstitutional when utilized against juveniles, Buck became eligible to be re-sentenced for her role in the murder. She had the decency to testify on the stand, stating: “Honestly, I have some mixed emotions about today’s proceedings,” she said. “I can’t imagine how Laurie’s family feels that this is even happening. I also can’t imagine how my family is feeling that this is even happening”. Time will tell if she is safe to live in society without causing futher harm to others. In her defense, she was new to the area, had no friends and was befriended by Lambert who has proven herself to be controlling, domineering, and rather mentally ill. If released, she would relocate to Oregon, wher...
