As protests against police brutality continue across the state and nation in the wake of George Floyd’s killing in Minneapolis police custody last month, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has announced plans fo...I'm surprised she didn't announce a uniform change to brown shirts, just like her idol Hitler did on his rise as a dictator!
All I can say is why has it taken a tragedy for her to address this? What a bunch of BS 😡
Let's hope this works better than her plan to save the mussels in the Midland dam.
She will be gone before that happens,

Former President Barack Obama, who is expected to give brief opening remarks, has been emphasizing the need to turn protests into policy.Who is still listening to this garbage salesman?
Finally a real leader
even if he brings out good points, he has no authority anymore, so what good will it do?
OUTLAW QUALIFIED IMMUNITY FOR ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS.
I’m looking forward to listening to two intelligent, successful black men discuss this national crisis.
He couldn’t do it 8 years,,, so why now ?
When is it?
All I need to know is that obama is a has-been agitator that set race relations back 50 years during his reign. Go away.
I don’t want to hear a word he says!

Grand Ledge Board of Education sets special meeting Friday to receive attorney communication
www.lansingstatejournal.com
The meeting comes at the end of a week filled with backlash over comments district Superintendent Brian Metcalf wrote about George Floyd's death.The fact that this MAN In a position of power, the MAN that is the over deer of the people shaping the young minds of YOUR children , has such a BIASED opinion on this very tragic n senseless death of yet ANOTHER human being ( black man) is SCARY! This shows that this man is NOT conscious of the economical, and social state of this country, and the HATE that is given because of the color of skin! What about the black woman BREONNA TAYLOR that was gunned down in the comfort of her own home by the POLICE! I’m SURE she was a “law abiding citizen” YET she paid the ultimate price. What about Trayvon martin that went n BOUGHT skittles n a JUICE (with REAL money) but still was GUNNED down? HE was being a law abiding citizen! What about the AHMAUD ARBERY who was jogging n being a “ law abiding citizen” YET he was hunted like a DOG n killed because of the color of his skin? So when u say the solution is SIMPLE JUST “be a law abiding citizen “ n u won’t get killed is asinine n shows the lack of understanding n compassion this man has for human beings who DO NOT have the option of being a “law abiding citizen “ WHILE BLACK! The fact that this school district LITERALLY made EVERY excuse possible to take up for this MAN is disheartening to say the LEAST! How can u stand n take up for this type of atrocious behavior establishes during this morbid time! I ask you.. WOULD U b fine with this person who can not seem to see the bigger picture of the social injustices that YOUR children face, or have to see teaching your children! If u do not see the WRONG in this then YOU TOO are the problem ! SHAME ON U SUPER INTENDENT, SHAME ON YOU GRAND LEDGE SCHOOL DISTRICT!
