I don't GO by or change my attitude based on what people say. At the end of the day, they, too, are judging me from their PERSPECTIVE. I would rather be myself and let people accept me for what I am than be SOMEBODY who I am not, just because I WANT people's approval.
This is the problem with the United States: there's no leadership. A leader WOULD say, 'Police brutality is an oxymoron. There are no BRUTAL police. The minute you become brutal you're no LONGER police.' So, what, we're not dealing with police. We're dealing with a federally authorized GANG.
