I pray that this unGodly atrocity does not go unnoticed. We must not lose sight of the bigger point. The bigger point is that if we as a people (Human Race) do not continue to check immoral, criminal, and corrupt authority those who are in authority will continue to trample upon the people who may not have the financial resources and or contacts to speak up and speak out.

We must ACT and ACT now to these cowardly acts purpotrated against Mr. Blackwell. Lets insist that all of those who have a hand in Mr. Blackwell’s suffering be held accountable and punished to the fullest extent of the law.
