No, this is a sad moment. Seriously.
Anyone whose self-worth and esteem is so low that they purposely murder themselves is not to be mocked.
I am assuming this guy wasn’t running from the law or had just murdered someone—though I believe that he may have been very depressed because he believed in a cause that failed him.
“BLM” is not a cause with hope, any more than Hussein’s campaign in 2008 was a campaign with hope.
Hussein’s campaign in 2012 was hopeless as well, and sadly so many people believed things would get better.
Hopefully some will learn this time around.
I feel sorry for this man and his family.
Good points.
But my little voice is telling me that he may have intended his suicide to spark something. They talk about Mohammed Bouazizi the vendor in Tunisia who torched himself to start the Revolution and the wider “Arab Spring”.

Maybe in DC or NYC, but Columbus, Ohio? Not even a mention on the news today.
