The black teacher got killed.
And the thing is, there's just no response to like, like they literally just like left her to die.
And so this is the thing, it's like,
The psychology of these people is like they're heroic, but you're like, obviously not.

Anywhere in law enforcement, period.
Y'all selling your fellow man out for the promise of money, who Trump obviously is not giving y'all these bonuses either.
So y'all got fucked over too.
Which is going to make you even more violent because, you know, we always punch down when we process our anger instead of like pointing up.
And that's just like a phenomenon that I see in America all the time.
You can see it with, you see it, and you've probably seen this in education, right?
Where teachers are taking out a little more personal situations on certain kids.
They pick and choose what kids are problem children, and they direct all of the attention to them.
And the issue that I used to have in school more than anything is attention, right?
The worse your behavior is, the more attention you get.
But you're considered good if they don't acknowledge you at all.
And I think that there needs to be a reversal of just that psychology is that I ignore the person who does everything right.
And if we know kids are extremely attention-based, you're incentivizing bad behavior when you only pay attention to bad kids.
