In case anyone wanted some insight into how good causes, turn violent, and how blacks feel sometimes, here are a trio of posts I made in the off-topic forum over a 3 day stretch in early July where events led to me having a bit of a breakdown.

My crime? Picking up drunk friends to get them home safely.
With everything going on I was scared out of my ####ing mind. Got home and cried out of relief. #### the police, #### anyone who has the nerve to defend then.
As an aside, my wife is amazing. Somehow she still makes me feel lucky at times like this.

I started off fairly level headed. But as more and more happens, I get more and more upset by what I see. I feel like people coming in and defending the police in blatant acts of unjust violence are telling me I don't ####ing matter, that if it happened to me they would be saying the same ####ing thing. Then I get pulled over, have my rights violated for no other reason than being responsible and protecting the safety of my friends and anyone they could have hurt if they drove drunk. Now someone is defending police for hiding their villainous actions?
I am a peaceful man, I am against physical conflict. But I'm at the point where if someone said to me the #### Azure and Yoho have said in person, I'm putting a mother####ing brick through their window.

What do I do? Being a good person for my entire life doesn't seem to matter. Getting an education and being the first person in my family to go to college doesn't matter. Working hard and keeping my head down doesn't seem to matter. Hell, I got ####ing stabbed protecting a white co-worker.
What do we have to do to be treated like human ####ing beings. What? Please tell us. because we would love to know.
