I do disagree with this misleading, white-hating Tweet from a District Attorney, particularly because I have written and blogged about serious crime being perpetrated against the most vulnerable of the most vulnerable in Massachusetts for years, and nobody has tried to stop those crimes.
Christian Cooper does not belong in that list; he isn't dead, was never in any serious danger, and antagonized Amy Cooper until she had the reaction that he was looking for. Amy Cooper is not a threat to anyone. Her life has been ruined for no reason.
I'm not going to start lecturing that black people should try not to hate white people, because I'm sure that it's very difficult to be a black American and not hate white people.
After everything that has happened to me for a decade and that continues to happen to me 24 hours a day, I hate all people. I try not to, but I do. I hate humanity.
I try not to allow too much of my hatred of humanity to influence what I publish, especially if doing so might endanger people the way that DA Rollins' Tweet is endangering Amy Cooper and all white people.
Now that I think of it, I don't know how the majority of black, homeless people whom I have known have been perfectly nice to me. You'd think that people who have the least would be the most vengeful and unreasonable, but DA Rollins is proving that's not true.
There is no question that the Amy Cooper story that is being perpetuated is making things worse among regular people. I'm sure that I'm not the only white woman who has been saying "Hi, how's it going" to black people all over the place to show friendliness. Some people don't answer me, which is understandable because they have no idea who I am. Some black men and women have been very nice back. A response that I have never had before, which is occurring repeatedly now, is a glare of absolute hatred from black men, directed somewhere above me.
What do you think they're thinking? I think I know. I think that they're thinking "Bitch, I know you're Amy Cooper. Take that fake shit somewhere else. You can't fool me with that racist 'Hi, how's it going?'"
