I just do not understand. Another senseless killing the very day after Alton Sterling's death. What is going on America? Why are the police doing this?

I am furious that the list of black men who died at the hands of police (who are suppose to protect us) continues to increase as well as the number of injustices (non-convictions) that come with these deaths!!

Philando Castile was murdered in cold blood in front of his 4-year-old daughter and his girlfriend. And in the video that Castile's girlfriend posted, his 4-year old daughter, despite witnessing her father's death, was able to stay strong enough to console her mother!!

Frustrated and sad does not even begin to describe what I am feeling right now. Quite frankly, such words are an understatement!! When will things change? How much more pain and suffering must be endured before a stop is put to these murders?

As I leave you all with reactions to these murders down below, all I ask is that you please keep the victims' families in your prayers and that you assist in bringing awareness and light to the madness that is happening.
