I lost over 100 followers this week standing up for WOC being attacked by white women.
I'm sorry to have lost them because it means those folks missed the point.
White people have an obligation to POC in America because of the damage #racism inflicts even if we aren't #racist.

The hardest words in any language are "I'm sorry."
Acknowledging our flaws goes against ego.
But it's essential.
I know I am a strong person with strong Socialist politics.
I know I can be intense.
But I am a fiundamentally kind person who doesn't want to hurt people.
2/
At times I know I <have> hurt people--we all have.
And that is my point: If people tell you you have hurt them, listen.
I don't mean casual snark, but hurt.
Listen.
Say you are sorry.
Repentance is under-utilized and under-valued, and that's not just my Catholicism talking.

IMO: we need MUCH TOUGHER laws on illegal-drug financing, manufacturing & whole-sale level distribution along with RICO enforcement. Retail level distribution & use consequences MUST BE DEFINITIVE and EQUITABLE in application across US.
.@ChuckGrassley @realDonaldTrump @POTUS

DEFINITIVE and EQUITABLE means that you can not throw the poor, the black, & other minorities in JAIL and the rich-white-kid gets help thanks to lawyers & parents.

Statistics suggest Lady Justice is NOT blind; that's a problem.
.@ChuckGrassley @realDonaldTrump @POTUS

Illegal-Drugs are harmful & deadly (like alcohol & cigarettes); some limited medical or recreational use.

Re-classify drugs as: NO-Medical-Approval-Drugs (NOMAD) for ATF sale (COMPETE, TAX, REGISTER, TRACK, EDUCATE, CONTROL & REDUCE USE).

Today is #FridayThoughts January 12, 2018.
1) Donald J Trump has not been in office one year & The only countries he is welcome in are run by dictators.
2) The convo today is Trump denies he said “shitholes” like Haiti, El Salvador & Niger.
3) Republicans are in hiding
2) The world we are now living in.
Trump spent last night phoning allies and friends, asking them how they thought the “shithole” remark was playing out in the press.
3) Silence is complicity, and Republican leaders are silent on Trump's racist 'shithole' comments dailykos.com/story/2018/1/1…
