Rape Is Ok.. Buying Candy Calls For Death.

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. -John 4:7

Rape Is Ok.. Buying Candy Calls For Death.

Brock Turner, David Becker, John Enochs, Austin James Wilkerson. What do all these names have in common ? They are white males who raped young women and got away with it. They got away with little or no jail time.

Then we have Briseira Torres, female, a United State citizen in Arizona who did not have her papers handy and was thrown in jail for 4 months. Kelley Williams-Bolar a woman who was sent to jail for 10 days because she did not send her children to the correct school district. Eric Garner, male, killed by police for selling loose cigarettes. Dante Parker, male, after being stunned by a taser multiple times was still shot and killed. Eric Harris ,male, officer who was taking him in custody “mistook” his gun for a taser. What do all these people have in common ? They are colored people who lost their lives or spent more time in jail than the men above.

Explain to me why the men who damaged those young ladies are out in the world living their life because they got away with it. Please tell me why these families have to mourn their loved ones because they “looked suspicious.” This is ridiculous and is getting out of hand. Everyday we see more and more injustice to our colored people and it is not right. It needs to STOP. Why did the white men above get to go on with their lives and get it taken off their record, but the women who sent her children to another school system now has that on her record? Every year we hear the same thing and i’m sick of it. The officers and judges are supposed to have discretion. They are suppose to be able to tell right from wrong. SO tell me, how is it right to rape a girl and only get away with probation but wrong to have your papers on you at all times and get 4 months of jail time.

But then again the judge always ends up saying it is not fair that the white males’ futures are going to be messed up. But it is fair for 5 children to lose their father even though he was tased multiple times.


This is wrong and we know it yet we do not do anything. Instead of helping our nation we put a racist to run our country.

Ask yourself how you would feel if that was your daughter, your sister, your wife. How would it feel that those men go away with it. Then put yourself in the shoes of the 5 children who lost their dad. Even after they already had control over him they felt the need to kill him.

This is not just a rant. These are facts our system is broken and we need to help fix it.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
