(ThyBlackMan.com) At some point in life, most of us will learn and conclude life isn’t always fair. You can be attractive, charitable, eloquent, friendly, qualified, and operate with integrity in all your dealings without being invited to dance.

Consider those billionaires now dropping bags of gold at his feet, concerned that he would use his presidential powers to hurt them.

Perhaps the fact that the culprit this time was a female, age 15 may have raised an eyebrow. It may have elicited a “wow.” But nothing more than that. Adults taking the lives of other adults has apparently not been […]
