They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye.

They said I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic all throughout my eye and behind my eye and in my skull.

And they also said that I had a piece of shrapnel metal about a few millimeters away from my corroded artery.

Yeah.

You see nothing out of the eye?

Like I said, I'm like 5'1".

I weigh 102 pounds.

Just a push would have done enough to get me back.

It was completely unnecessary to shoot me point blank in the face and my eye only a few feet away from me.

I think he was trying to kill me.

I fully believe he was trying to kill me.

No, I won't let it.

I won't let them silence my voice.

They advocate for social justice.
