The story of singer-songwriter Mon Rovîa, who takes his stage name from the Liberian capital, is one that shares some overlap with that of "Sinners" protagonist Sammie ... albeit featuring a ukulele, not a guitar, and minus any garlic-fearing bloodthirsty monsters. https://cnn.it/3MmQtEE

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold.

Why is there always such an emphasis on the offended people to be”understanding”and “forgiving” to their offender, rather than the offender to hold themselves accountable? MAYBE GETTING CALLED A RACIAL SLUR, IN FRONT OF MY PEERS, AND ON WORLWIDE TV, SHOULDN’T WARRANT THAT.
