“People say I make strange choices, but they’re not strange for me. My sickness is that I’m fascinated by human behavior, by what’s underneath the surface, by the worlds inside people.” - Johnny Depp

Instead of saying “I don’t have time” try saying “it’s not a priority,” and see how that feels. Often, that’s a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just don’t want to. But other things are harder. Try it: “I’m not going to edit your résumé, sweetie, because it’s not a priority.” “I don’t go to the doctor because my health is not a priority.” If these phrases don’t sit well, that’s the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we don’t like how we’re spending an hour, we can choose differently.

The twin brothers above were victims of a hate crime in which they were viciously attacked by 11 men. But instead of collecting evidence from the scene, investigating the crime, and doing their JOB, the NYPD closed the case.
The NYPD is notorious for this type of behavior; they never let us forget what being Black means to them. But they need to understand that “to Protect and to Serve” applies to ALL citizens!
So please reblog and sign the petition below to hold the NYPD Internal Affairs Bureau liable for extreme negligence and police misconduct.
