Another day and another story so infuriating it breaks my heart and mind.
in Kansas City, MO 16 yo Ralph Yarl (who is black)was shot when he rang a doorbell on the wrong house a block away from his destination.
The white homeowner allegedly shot him in the head through the glass door and then shot him in the back when Yarl ran away. Yark went to three houses seeking help and when someone finally helped him he was forced to lie on his stomach with his hands out.

The Police arrested and released the accused shooter saying there is a “24 hour” investigative hold on arrest.
The homeowner had an “excuse” which we have not heard yet...you can bet RW Media is looking for a way to demonize this kid who is a talented musician and top scholar at his school.

That is from Stephen Robinson on Wonkette.
This is outrageous and infuriating and sad!
Ralph is in critical condition. Pray for him if you are so inclined.
