Breonna Taylor Was ‘Just Another Black Woman’

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Trump and his Nazi army share one irrevocable belief: “if your ethnicity is Black, Hispanic, Asian, or anything other than pure white from Western Europe or South Africa, you are not worthy of being an American citizen.” He wants you to leave America by choice or by force.

On March 12, 2020, an emergency room technician was shot to death after being woken by Louisville, Kentucky, police officers broke down her door. Breonna Taylor was a 26-year-old Black woman who was lying in bed with her boyfriend. Taylor died when officer Brett Hankison fired his weapon, which was later determined to be an “act of excessive violence.” The police had invaded the wrong address.

After a trial, Hankison was convicted. However, Trump and his racist Department of Justice made a purely racially biased decision regarding his punishment.

[President Donald Trump’s Justice Department wants the cop convicted of violating Breonna Taylor’s civil rights to serve just one day in jail—and suggests he never should’ve been prosecuted in the first place.]

America has become a nation without laws if you are white, wealthy, have power over others, and falsely claim to be a Christian. Everyone else must receive the maximum sentence required by law.

One day for taking an innocent woman’s life. In Kentucky, if a Black man kills a white person, his life is over. He will automatically receive the death penalty, although no one has been executed since 2009, or life imprisonment without parole.

Does anyone other than me remember the “Pledge of Allegiance,” which ends with the promise of “liberty and justice for all?”

No laws, no justice, no equality, no country.
