But this is what it is like to be black and go about your everyday life:<br /><br />""It was pretty dramatic. It's destroyed me," 73-year-old Eugene L. Brice, a member of the Springfield chapter of the National Association of Black Veterans, told MassLive.<br /><br />"I pulled into the handicapped spot at the Big Y in East Longmeadow. I do my own shopping and for my wife," Brice said. "A woman pulled beside me and crossed halfway over the lines. I asked her to move so I could use my ramp to get out of the car."<br /><br />While the woman did move, she didn't give Brice enough room to exit his car, prompting him to ask her again, to which she responded, "Mind your own business." But then what happened next moved Brice to tears.<br /><br />"The woman said, 'N----, just keep on moving.' She said that several times," said Brice, who uses a mobility scooter to get around. He also said that the woman physically threatened him.<br /><br />"I was sitting in the scooter, and I was very vulnerable. I was scared and afraid if I said something, it might escalate," Brice said.<br /><br />Once he was inside the store, Brice's ordeal wasn't over yet.<br /><br />"I tried to buy some ice cream, but I was shaking and I couldn't talk," he said, adding that a white man who saw the incident told the woman that if Brice had stayed "with his own kind" — it wouldn't have happened."<br /><br />It isn't just up to black people to affirm that all lives matter, as Arbery Sr. did. It is up to white people to admit that there is a problem when white people behave like this to a black disabled veteran who is just trying to get his shopping done.<br /><br />If Cecelia thinks Arbery is saying something important, she needs to live that truth by sticking up for black people when stuff like this happens. And I frankly just don't see that happening. Instead, she wants to use Arbery Sr.'s words to count coup against the libs here at Somerby's site, while Somerby pretends racism is long gone.Not a rodenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216459357112547141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-12952319593315604912021-11-26T17:26:43.322-05:002021-11-26T17:26:43.322-05:00This shows you what conservatives consider funny:

Rittenhouse not only dropped out of high school, but he kept losing his jobs, including his lifeguard job and the one at the YMCA in Kenosha (which he did not hold at the time of the shooting, as was claimed). He was not enrolled in any online nursing course either at the time of the shooting. Nursing requires a degree or certificate of some sort, depending on the type of license.<br /><br />Rittenhouse wanted to join the police but:<br /><br />"About one third (30.2 percent) of police officers in the United States have a four-year college degree. A little more than half (51.8 percent) have a two-year degree, while 5.4 percent have a graduate degree."<br /><br />In Los Angeles, completion of high school is required. In Kenosha, you need a two-year certificate program (after high school graduation). Rittenhouse wasn't on that course, at the time of the shooting, not matter what he may have signed up for during his trial.<br /><br />These wannabees who cannot meet requirements to join police, military or other first-responders, focus on the shooting part, because they think that's easy. Too bad no one is zeroing in on the mistakes Rittenhouse made -- it might be instructive for the other kids in his situation. There is a lot more to the job than simply point and shoot.<br /><br />Somerby, who claims to have been an educator, apparently doesn't recognize the importance of education to these lost souls.Not a rodenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216459357112547141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-91848861405069945212021-11-26T16:41:11.291-05:002021-11-26T16:41:11.291-05:00To the extent it doesn't conflict with appeari...To the extent it doesn't conflict with appearing in all of the Republican campaign ads in 2022 and 2024.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-37399880419859138212021-11-26T16:40:39.936-05:002021-11-26T16:40:39.936-05:00He is also invited to join the board of directors ...He is also invited to join the board of directors of the school of American ballet.<br /><br />...ah, sorry, scratch that.
