He wrote: We are human beings. We deserve to be buried by our children not the other way around. No matter how u felt about black people look at this mother and look at this father and tell me as a human being how u cannot feel empathy for them. How can u not feel sympathy for their pain and loss. These are not ‘THOTS, niggas/niggers, hoes, Ballers, Divas.’ These two people are parents. They are humans that produced a child and loved that child and that child was slaughtered like Game and left face down as public spectacle while his blood drained down the street. Look at the pain of this mother; look into her eyes. Look at the man behind her. Look at that father made helpless and hurt that he cud not defend his seed. Don’t debate. Don’t insert your agenda. Save me the bullshit Black On Black Crime speech and look at these two Noble creatures called humans and look at what govt-sanctioned murder has done. It has robbed them of their humanity and replaced it with pain and shame, suffering and hurt. I don’t care if others rioted or why. I don’t care that ballplayers and rappers are what they shud be. I care that we as humans care as much about one another more. I care we see past Class, race and culture and honor the humanity that unites our species. Stop talking and LOOK at these PEOPLE. LOOK at these HUMANS and stand with them against a system allows a Human PIG to slaughter their child. Forgive any typos love and respect u all.
THIS SHIT IS GETTING OUTTA HAND CINCINNATI (AP) — Family members of a man fatally shot by police at a southwestern Ohio Wal-Mart believe store video will provide answers about what happened that day and vindicate him. The family’s attorney and the father of John Crawford III said Monday that they requested surveillance video and communications between police and store security from Aug. 5, when Crawford was shot in the Dayton suburb of Beavercreek. Police said Crawford, 22, waved an air rifle at customers and was fatally shot by officers when he wouldn’t drop it. Crawford’s father said in a telephone interview that his son wasn’t a bad person. “He was a good son and a good father to his two children,” John Crawford Jr., of Jackson, Tennessee, said. “I am positive he will be vindicated once the facts are known.” Family attorney Michael Wright said in a telephone interview that they haven’t heard back from authorities or Wal-Mart about their requests for the video and other material. A witness told a 911 dispatcher that a man had a rifle and appeared to be loading it. “We understand he took the BB gun from a shelf and had a phone in one hand and the gun in the other, but that’s why we need to see the video,” Wright said. Messages left for Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Beavercreek’s city attorney weren’t immediately returned Monday. A spokeswoman for the state’s Bureau of Criminal Investigation said the agency hadn’t yet seen a request. The police asked the state to take over the investigation into the shooting, but Wright said the family will ask the U.S. attorney’s office to oversee the inquiry. “We want a set of independent eyes that can take an unbiased look,” Wright said. “We don’t believe a Wal-Mart customer should be holding a BB gun they sell and get killed.” He says the family is asking everyone to withhold judgment until all the facts are known. Wright says they also wanted to express condolences to the family of 37-year-old Angela Williams, a Fairborn woman who died after suffering a medical problem during the store’s evacuation. Authorities said it could be weeks before final autopsy results are known.

Kevin Durant and Drake attend Kevin Durant’s Birthday Party at Avenue on September 22, 2013 in New York City. Johnny Nunez/WireImage When the Toronto Raptors recruited Drake as their official ambassador last September, they probably weren’t expecting the stalwart Canadian to cost them thousands of dollars in fines. Unfortunately for both parties, Drake is learning that you can get away with saying a lot more in hip-hop than you can in professional sports. During Drizzy’s OVO Fest in Toronto, the YMCMB rapper gave a shout-out to Oklahoma City Thunder player Kevin Durant, who was in the audience that night. “I just want to see what would happen if he came to play in Toronto,” Drake said to thunderous applause. Durant will become a free agent in 2016. While that’s an innocent enough comment coming from a fan, Drake is no longer just the Raptors’ most famous cheerleader: He’s their official ambassador. So the NBA saw his comments as a recruiting pitch and fined the Raptors $25,000 for violating anti-tampering rules, ESPN reports. Presumably the rapper will take care to watch his basketball-related comments during future concerts. Aside from costing the Raptors $25,000, Drake also brought out Usher, Lauryn Hill and 50 Cent during OVO Fest 2014.
