Not for nothing

I am not downplaying what is going on in Iran. I don't want to make light of such a serious situation. I don't want to take lightly the young woman being shot in the streets of Tehran. But hell if that was any young Black kid in the streets of damn near any major city in the US, would the outrage be as loud? Would the news media be asking when is enough? Would John McCain and Lindsey Graham be as outraged? I think not. Even with a Black President young Black kids lives still aren't as valuable as one Iranian woman who might indeed be the martyr for a whole nation.


My 2 cents.
