YOUNG UNARMED BLACK MAN SHOT AND PARALYZED IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD BY FAKE COP FOR TALKING TO WHITE GIRL IN HIS CAR
On February 4, sitting in his own car in his own neighborhood, talking to a female passenger, Monroe Bird was shot in the neck by a security guard, Ricky Stone, a 52-year-old white man. The bulletpierced the C3 vertebrae in his neck. Standing 6 feet, 8 inches, Bird, a gifted athlete, is now unable to move his arms or legs and relies on a ventilator to breathe.
Heres what you need to know:
The security guard who shot Bird possessed marijuana at the time of the shooting. He told the Tulsa police that he hadn’t smoked it in a few weeks, and they didn’t even give him a citation. This is the definition of white privilege. Mind you,Tulsa was quick to test Eric Harris for drugsafter they killed him and then released the results widely—even though he never acted violently toward officers.
The security guard went to the tired, age-old excuse and claimed that he saw Bird reach into his glove compartment. According to the police report, no weapons were found in or near the car, and no items that even seemed to belong in the glove compartment were found out or about in the car.
The security guard claimed he thought Monroe and his female passenger were having sex in the car and that he only approached them because of this. She’s white. Bird is black. Both denied doing anything of the sort.
The security guard has claimed that Bird, who has no criminal record, attempted to run him over and basically kill him there on the spot.
Both the female passenger and Bird denied the guard’s account and stated that they were driving away when Stone began recklessly firing his gun into the car.
The security guard who shot Bird worked for Benjy D. Smith, who owns Smith & Son Security Company. This important to know because Smith is a reserve deputy for the same Tulsa Sheriff’s Office that is currently under national scrutiny for its unethical practices with Reserve Deputy Bob Bates, who shot and killed Eric Harris earlier this year.
The insurance company is denying him coverage because they claim “it was his own fault that he got shot.”
PLEASE HELP HIM!!

Guess who doesn’t have to handle the fallout of civil war? STEVE ROGERS
Guess who doesn’t have to deal with the governments and media and people asking for answers? STEVE ROGERS
Guess who gets to hide away and wait til all this blows over? STEVE ROGERS
Guess who doesn’t have to do any work to fix the broken trust between Avengers and the people? STEVE ROGERS
So really, Steve’s letter that when Tony needs help, he’ll be there? BS
You created this problem too Steven Grant Rogers, so you show your face back into the world and you do your part to fix what you broke. You are not gonna leave Tony himself to hold the blame, not when you’re giving him a half assed apology letter claiming you will watch his back.
He doesn’t need you to watch his back, he needs you to stand with him, beside him. Your claim of being there for him means shit when you’re hiding out on another country while he has to deal with the entire fallout and face the berating crowds.
Own up to your mistakes Steve, it takes two people to start a “war”
PART 1 IS FINALLY HERE!!! This comic is from @insanitysbloomings‘ fanfic“Back To Us,” which takes place 7 years after Hawk Moth’s defeat and the heroes go their separate ways. When a new villain appears after 7 years of relative peace, they find that they don’t have as much in common as they used to… Dun dun DUUUUUUUN~!
It’s seriously an awesome story! When @insanitysbloomings got randomly chosen for my giveaway I had no idea she had such an amazing fanfic already! I’m totally hooked on it now and follow her updates religiously! （＞▽＜）
I originally wasn’t planning on making it as big as it is now. It’ll be 4 parts total, or 5 depending on whether I decide to split one up into 2 and they’re mostly drawn out, they just need to be colored now.
Anyway, this scene was literally THE perfect excuse for me to practice the 2 things I’ve been wanting to work on, 1) Drawing expressions, and 2) Coloring nighttime settings. And since it’s from a fanfic I really like, it’s been really fun! I may not color the rest of the comic quite like this, but we’ll see what happens.
Obviously, I took some liberties with Ladybug’s costume. The original isn’t as fun to draw and I like redesigning stuff. ;P
I had to look up reference pictures of the top of the Eiffel Tower to figure out where to stick these guys… there aren’t a lot of places to sit way up there, once you go past a certain height!
So I decided to have them sit on the ledge outside the top viewing area of the tower; I remembered it from the Guitar Villain episode. (I KNOW YOU ALL REALLY, REALLY CARE ABOUT THAT LITTLE DETAIL!!! MWAHAHA XD)
You are walking outside the store when you see a box of bobby pins on the ground. You pick it up, only to walk a few paces when you stumble into a second box. You turn the boxes over. On one box is a clearly written lable: “Nicola”. The other box has a label of its own: “Daniel”. Interestingly, you have two good friends by that name. You look up, and sure enough, you see Nicola and Daniel looking around the parking lot, as if they have lost something. They have looks of deep concern on their faces. Thinking you perhaps hold the key to the mystery, you shout
