Dallas cops who were murdered were brave. I mourn them just like I mourn black folk murdered by police. But civilians swear no oaths.

May Love & light surround all the families who have lost loved 1s within these past few long days.

We are all human beings. We all hurt.

These Dallas shootings are horrific. Killing these officers is morally reprehensible and completely counterproductive to keeping us safe.

Being against cops killing is not equal to being for killing cops. We need peace in our streets.
