What Happened To Elijah Al-Amin?

American teen was killed by white extremist. The white extremist's defense says he was mentally ill. The family and social media say he is a terrorist. They blame Arizona for the death.

Thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers will not bring back the dead or heal the wounded. Hashtag activism, lowering of the flags, moments of silence, naming of roads and property, praying and saying "Your heart goes out to...." are meaningless platitudes. You don't know the victim. Only the family knows the victims.

A 17-year old teen was stabbed to death in Peoria, Arizona, on Thursday by a terrorist who told people he did it because the victim's rap music made him feel "unsafe."

At a local Circle K in the Phoenix area, this white terrorist lunged at the teen and allegedly stabbed him in the back and then slit his throat.

The terrorist told the law that he stabbed the teen because he heard him listening to hip-hop music in his car before entering the store and the music made the terrorist feel "unsafe."He also claimed that he was "attacked by people.....who listened rap music," who he claimed were people of color.

He believed that people listening to rap music were considered a threat to him and the community.

The terrorist was charged with first-degree murder. He was given a $1 million "get out free" card by direct cash payment. He will face a judge on July 15.

Just two days before the attack, the terrorist was released from the iron college. He was facing numerous charges, including aggravated assault of a correctional officer, assault of a correctional officer, assault with a weapon, marijuana violation and theft.

The terrorist was homeless and his lawyer said that he was "mentally ill" and he was a "set up for failure."

The lawyer, Jacie Cotterell got slammed by social media for claiming this incident was sparked by mental illness and not clear cut racism.

It is an old meme of white criminals being coddled with sympathy. Like white privilege seems to allow people to get away with murder, rape and theft. It also helps them win elections and events.

One wrote on social media, "If a Black man killed a 17-year old white boy for listening to country music, they wouldn't say the black man is mentally ill. Stop using mental illness as an excuse for racism! And you're painting an awful picture of people who actually have mental illness."

Another wrote, "Young black teens are being murdered in the U.S. for wearing hoodies, playing with toys, listening to rap music, standing outside a store [and you don't consider it] a racial issue. [This is] not a mental health issue. These people are white supremacists and terrorist. Tired of this shit. #JusticeforElijah

White terrorist eligible for the death card.

The Arizona Department of Corrections said the terrorist wasn't mentally ill. He was just a homeless man who had no remorse for his actions.

The charges will face murder charges. The charges will get him the DEATH card in Arizona. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

In observations of the latest murders of unarmed teens, we had Jordan Davis, the incident in which a white terrorist shot and killed the teen outside a Jacksonsville gas station because of rap music. The terrorist was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to the iron college.

His mother Lucy McBath would become an advocate for MomsDemandAction and later Democratic U.S. Representative for Georgia.

It also made us think about Tamir Rice, the Cleveland teen who shot within a few seconds at a park by an untrained cop.

It also made us think about other people of color who were killed by white extremists.

His grieving parents are telling the junk food media that their son Elijah was dreaming big. He was a good student and wanted to head to college to study. His girlfriend was the last person to see him before his death.

All he wanted to do was get a soda and some snacks.

Rahim Al-Amin and Serina Rides are now preparing to bury their son. Angry over the fact that Arizona allowed this terrorist to roam streets. Angry that the junk food media is giving sympathy towards a cold-hearted callous murderer.

He was working two jobs to pay for a vehicle. He was working getting out of Arizona and moving to Seattle and work in hotel management. He would have celebrated his birthday in a few weeks.

This is the latest of many incidents that social media covers. You never hear this on the news.

It will never be mentioned by white extremists like Colin Flaherty. This terrorist will be a martyr among white extremists who hide from federal authorities or trolls who find humor in the death.
