It's your season!

From my facebook page

"Appalled at the vitriol spewed at the child who got into the gorilla habitat. I have even read that the child deserved to die because he had no business in there. Not to mention the hate spewed at the mother. I knew the race of the child before I even saw the video. And you wonder why the need to remind you that black lives matter. Too many people devalue the lives of black people, young and old. You pay $90000+ dollars for the weapon used to murder Treyvon Martin and you celebrate George Zimmerman, but you try to take away Michael Vick's livelihood over the treatment of dogs by his associates. The sad thing is that too few of you who claim not to feel this way bother to speak out against this obvious disdain but when a black person steps out and says "Hey I matter" You are quick to minimize the assertion by stating "all lives matter". Do you truly believe and understand that black lives matter as well?"

Sad to say that the only words from that entire paragraph that registered with some people was "black lives matter".
