Just read a very interesting story about Alton Sterling which is scary in itself. The point I'm making is that it could be anyone of us specifically referring to a black men, not that it couldn't happen to anyone. I genuinely shed a tear right now, partly for the murders of not just sterling but all the others who have been murdered or shot by for police.

I don't even know the men that have been shot or killed but the thought that despite doing the right thing my entire life, I could easily be me vanished from my family and reduced to a RIP Hastag at any given moment.

Read this story I found earlier today about Alton Sterling, it's scary in the sense that this was just a guy, a guy, just a normal dude we see everyday when we are in the Barbershop or outside a convenience store while we pump gas, he's the guy you give the nod to when you walk by him in Publix or Walmart when you pass each other at the deli. Just a normal everyday man not just a black man who's life has ended so senseless.

Black Lives does matter, I think too It's time we take a stand.
