Sat May 30 23:53:26 UTC 2020

Yes I was just with my sister two years older than me. And we were talking about the cop that was kneeling on the young black man throat for nine minutes until he died even when he called out for his mama. I said to my sister and she agreed that this is going on between white cops and black man white cops and black women is racist. I say that because my whole entire family is black. And it makes me sick and very angry at these white cops. And then with the black woman is mad At the cup for investing her brother. Because he was planning on coming to the Tampa Bay area and doing a lot of shooting killing. And she claims she needed help getting out the car and when a cop trying to help her she launched at the cop with a huge huge butcher knife. So the cop came from running out the building to see what was the matter and they had to shoot the lady because she was trying to stab the car. And that was over by where my sister lives in Temple Terrace. I told my sister that this country is going to hell in a hand basket

I didn’t join the meeting today because one I was getting back in from walking Frisco and two I knew I was going to be with my sister two years older than me for a couple hours she she is more in Porten right now or she’s just more important in my life. Because I am the youngest one in the family and all my family it worries about me at this time so she comes and get me and take me to so I could see my nephews my brother and the rest of the family so they can know how I’m doing. Me and Frisco is not Like the people here in Tampa at the Tampa Bay chapter were they say they stay in the house. I knew when I was no longer for right now going to be at the VA on March 1 and right before they did the shut down the VA did a shut down on March 1 to protect our patients I said to my sisters this coronavirus that’s coming to Tampa is not want to keep me locked in my house. Me and Frisco does not stay in the house like a lot of people at the Tampa beach after we go out walking every day we go everywhere we don’t sit in the house. Because a lot of myDoctors and nurses said it’s not good just a set up in the house like that. It’s good to get out and just walk around your neighborhood and S with me in Frisco do twice a day we walk around our neighborhood working on street crossing so he can keep that up. The only days I did not go out walking is on the weekends because it’s not as busy out here on the weekend but I do it through the week where it’s a lot more cars.
