Interesting how your resort to tone policing, calling me angry and accusing me of muttering rather than responding to the actual issues involved.

Well you know what, black people are angry as fuck about this issue. Transgender LGBTQ people are angry as fuck about this issue. They are so angry that some of them stormed out of a recent HOP meeting in tears when it looked like HOP was about to backtrack.

So you know what? I’ll stay angry. I’ll stay on the side of the angels. I’ll stay on the side of the oppressed.

While you make excuses for representatives of the brutal racist New York City Police Department.

Being angry is absolutely the right thing to be here. Being angry at people like you is good and proper and appropriate.
