Morning all!
I have closely read each posts on Joshua's heartbreaking horrific murder in cold blood.
I've always made it known I believe truly in justice for ALL! Not just selected targeted victims, but each, and every one of them has mattered equally to me.
It's one of the reasons I was ecstatic when FINALLY new prison reforms was recently signed into law, but angry it took so long to right such a terrible wrong.
It is one of the ways showing all of our citizens must count, and be given support. Its a great win for them, and for all of us by showing us we must return to being a kinder, and supporter of ALL in our communities.
I do admit I find it quite fascinating how some chastise others who dares wait for the facts to even become known. Yet expect all to jump aboard without one piece of facts known yet as to who the actual murderer may be nor even know the motive.
I'm sorry if that may displease others, but that is how I have chosen to look at all cases since joining Jan.2, 2004.
So moo, is not based in any factual evidence since I'm unaware of any except Joshua has been murdered, and the location where it happened.
1. Could it be connected to the DPD as retaliation? Since anything is possible of course it could certainly be, but is it the most probable premature forgone conclusion? We will see.
2. Could the offender be of the same race, and gender who takes thousands of their lives every single year? We know all too well totally innocent faultless AAs are murdered, even children inside of their own homes with some of them doing homework, or sleeping.
3. Could the offender be someone who was very displeased with Joshua because he dared to tell ALL of the truth instead just only what helped the state?
I do find all three possibilities until the facts are known.
It makes my heart shattered for Joshua, and his devastated family.
What breaks my heart even more is Joshua had to be another AA man who has been murdered in cold blood to even get the deserved attention of the epidemic which AA men having been facing in their own communities for many years.
What an awful price he had to pay to bring about much needed awareness.
If he hadn't just testified honorably in a high profile case we wouldn't ever even know his name or what a good man he truly was.
Rest in peace Joshua.
Your senseless death may be the catalyst your people need to all of the serious issues your race have been facing for way too long within your own communities.
I tried to speak out on the violent problems which have destroyed so many lives, and terrorized your communities.
Sigh. No one really seem to care. I cared, and I will continue to care about ALL victms of all of our people inclusively.
