I’m American but live outside of America with my wife who is not American. We live a really good life where we are. We are not millionaires, but we are not paycheck to paycheck either.
People always wonder why we don’t want to live in America. Although they kind of stopped asking as much the past few years.
The shooting happened one day before the 63rd anniversary of one of Jacksonville’s most notorious racist incidents, “Ax Handle Saturday.” A group of Black protesters were conducting a peaceful sit-in at a city park to protest the Jim Crow laws that kept them out of white-owned stores and restaurants. That's when they were attacked by 200 members of the Ku Klux Klan, who hit them with bats and ax handles as police stood by.
Only when members of a Black street gang arrived to fight the Klansmen did the police intercede. Only Black people were arrested.
Wow for once a headline
Interesting that Meatball's remarks only denounce the fact that the shooter killed himself. He didn't mention anything about the innocent victims of this senseless violence. What a loser.
