Awww. The Washington Post is all choked up because a leader of the Black [Criminals’] Lives Matter movement chose to beat the hangman to the finish line.
The Post is too discreet to mention howMarShawn McCarrel offed himself, but NBC News says he shot himself in the head with a handgun, having come to the conclusion that his own Black Life didn’t matter. Who are we to argue with that?
Still, let’s eavesdrop on the morose miasma that’s the Post’s article about the late MarShawn.
A solemn group stood in the shadow of the statehouse in Columbus, Ohio, forming a circle on the snow-caked sidewalk. MarShawn McCarrel, 23, a well-known Black Lives Matter activist, had taken his own life on the statehouse steps. Now his friends had come together in his memory.
You would think that this would make his soi-disant friends reminisce about what was so great in MarShawn’s short life, but, ah, no. Instead, they all seem to be competing for the I Am The Next Most Depressed consolation prize, since MarShawn walked away with the I Am The Most Depressed trophy — Number One with a bullet.
As evening turned to night last week, protest organizer Rashida Davison, 25, recounted the personal toll of two years of activism: Trouble sleeping. Bouts of anxiety. Feelings of despair.
“As evening turned to night,” saints preserve us. Has anyone put that reporter on suicide watch yet?
“This is really getting to us,” Davison said. “And if MarShawn’s death does not show that… I don’t know what else we need to tell or show to say that this is really going on.”
Since he died early last week, news of McCarrel’s suicide has rocked the national police protest movement, forcing a round of introspection about a reality that predates the seminal 2014 shooting of a black teenager in Ferguson, Mo.: Some of the most prominent activists and organizers are battling not only the system, but depression.
via ‘My demons won today’: Ohio activist’s suicide spotlights depression among Black Lives Matter leaders – The Washington Post.
Raise your hands if you are surprised to find that “youth leaders” lionized in the press are “battling” mental illness. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Yep, it’s not about the Unique And Special Snowflake® who just offed himself to Show Them All some inconsequential thing or other about his inconsequential life, but about theother Unique And Special Snowflakes® left behind and their attention-seeking whinging.
In Oakland, Calif., a prominent activist posted the phone number for a suicide prevention hotline on her Facebook page.
Now, there’s bold action, 2016 style: she fearlessly posted to Facebook. Somewhere in the Afterlife, Sophie Scholl is agog at this “activist’s” courage.
You “anti-police activists” are aware, aren’t you, that what happens if you call the “suicide prevention hotline” is this: they send the police?How typical for parasites shielded by the very order the police help produce to attack the organism of that order. But she was the only one, right?
Er, no.
In Cleveland, a lead organizer confessed on Facebook that he, too, had tried to take his own life.
No more competent at that than at holding a job in the productive economy, eh, kid?
Dozens of others have shared stories of their battles with depression, anxiety and insecurity on Twitter.
Wait, we thought the black community wasunder attack from the police. (None of the black people we know are under attack from the police, but perhaps they’re exceptional eh? A lot of them are soldiers, vets and police. The rest of them just work for a living like all the other white, yellow, red, brown and “kind of a mix” folks).
Note also that this movement isn’t poor, hand-to-mouth, subsistence-working black folks. It’s 1%er, parents are professionals, full-boat-scholarship black folks.
“In the movement you’re just constantly engaging in black death, seeing the communal impact,” said Jonathan Butler, the University of Missouri graduate student whose hunger strike last fall led to the resignation of the school’s president. “You’re being faced with the reality that I’m more likely to be killed by the police, that I’m being discriminated against. You start to see all of the micro-aggressions.”
Oh, micro-aggressions. Lord love a duck. Let’s explain something. When a black kid is beating a guy’s head against a sidewalk and collects a life-ending slug, there wasn’t anything micro about what he was doing. When a black guy beats up a little Indian dude to steal from him and then attacks a police officer, his very, very macro aggression was the single biggest cause of a gizzard full of lead — and these two supposed injustices are the foundational myth of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Like many prominent activists, Butler said he has long struggled with depression.
Aw, little spoiled scholarship kid. Every blue collar American would play the violin for you, if he had ever had time off from work to learn the freakin’ violin.
His involvement with the protest movement at times has worsened his mental health…
Yeah, we’ve been observing that about these “protesters” for a while. Most of them seem to be a few credits short of a Grievance Studies degree.
….not only because of the emotional strain of a single-minded focus on racism….
Wait, wait, wait. Who’s focusing single-mindedly on that particularly toxic “ism”? Would the answer to that question be, “You and your professors,” by any chance?
…but also because of more mundane stresses, such as media scrutiny and infighting among allies.
Oh, media scrutiny. Jesus H. Christ. These loopy protesters have had the media in their pocket for two years now. Media scrutiny is when they go through your trash for your financial statements and rent the house next door so they can set up telephoto lenses into your bathroom.
Dante Barry, executive director of Million Hoodies Movement for Justice, a New York-based activist group, [said] “Organizing saves people’s lives. But we also don’t do a good job of saving the lives of the people who are organizing.”
Frankly, apart from the meaningless distinction of skin color, how are all these would-be organizers and activist “executive directors” different from the filthy trustafarian hippies of the Occupy movement?
And how is the world better off for their existence, or worse off for their passing?
If they all kept threatening to, and did MarShawn themselves, would anybody miss them?
“It’s really tough in the black community because we’re going uphill trying to fight all of these negative stereotypes about us, and the last thing a lot of black people want to do is give people one more reason to look down on us,” said Monnica Williams, director of the Center for Mental Health Disparities….
We’re not making this up: Misspelled “Monnica” is the head of something at a university that studies how blacks are crazier than other folks, and how it’s all whitey’s fault. And she’s trying to fight the negative stereotypes that provide her meal ticket.
Monnnnnica, dear, we don’t “look down on … black people.” We look down on you and the other Black Criminals’ Lives Matter activists. And “we” includes a lot of black non-activist, non-criminals, non-Unique And Special Snowflakes™.
So if you won’t kill yourself, just get over yourself.
Can you say Federal Disabled status for thousands now "depressed by inaction on the governments part" claims.
If i had a suicide hotline child he'd look like.
Not taking away from the seriousness of depression or other issues one faces in their daily life.
However some folks game the system every chance they get.
3 corners of NEED HELP OUT OF WORK AND HOMELESS signs. While on corner #4 stands a 20 something twirling a sign for Horton Homes. To the tune of $9-12 per.

I saw somewhere that there are actually very few black suicides. Most of the deaths that look like suicides were actually murders by white people made to look like a suicide. Especially hanging deaths. No black man has ever hung himself. Any black man found hanging from a rope was lynched.
"Raise your hands if you are surprised to find that “youth leaders” lionized in the press are “battling” mental illness. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Stopped reading after they trashed the guy for the fifth or sixth time. A guy disagrees with you politically, so you openly mock his suicide and life? Whoever wrote this is a bigger pile of shit than any of the "activists" I've seen so far. While writing this reply, I can see a tidbit that says, "We're not making this up: Misseplled "Monnica" (a name can't be misspelled, you ass) is the head of something at a university that studies how blacks (who talks like that?) are crazier than other folks, and how it's all whitey's fault....we don't look down on black people. We look down yon you and other Black Criminals' Lives Matter activists. And "we" includes a lot of black non-activist, non-criminals, non Unique and Special Snowflakes."
Now the article has a picture of some black dude at the top looking smug. So I'm not sure if that's the author, and he's just some self-hating type that's happy to give racists pacification, or if this is a white author that really doesn't give a shit about having common decency, since clearly the only negro that doesn't tow his line worth anything is a dead one.
So a Black Lives Matter criminal died...by his own hand instead of being killed during the commission of a crime? Good riddance.
