There’s a lot wrong in America!

Unpopular AS FUCK Opinion Alert

Regardless of if it’s legal now, Michael Thompson still committed a felony knowing what the consequences were back when he was sentenced. It’s the concept of principal. If he had 3 LBS of weed today no one would bat an eye. And how can you say that other races (including Caucasian) aren’t In prison right now for the exact same thing? There’s no way to prove that. Not a skin color issue at this point.

Joseph Meili is inexcusable. Classic way of lawyers using their knowledge to cheat the system. This comparison is still shit but that’s a disgusting act regardless of how he met the girl or what he claimed to have thought or believed.

Bottom line, stop posting dumb comparisons like these to stir up drama. I’m tired of people going out of their way to find a connection of racism between two cases that are 25 years apart. As a gay man I’m going to say something that I live by: Stop looking for the problems. Just be, because they’re always going to be there and no amount of protest will completely irradiate it. Live peacefully knowing that the sane people that actually matter love you for you regardless of what you look like.

And lastly if you act like a dumbass and make shitty decisions don’t use your race/sexuality/gender/etc. as a fucking cop out for being a piece of shit.

Thank you!
