«I hope for peace and justice for Jacob, his family, and the entire Kenosha community. I reaffirm my commitment to action to build a more just, more equitable state for every Wisconsinite,» Evers
LeBron James does not appear happy about the decision made regarding Rusten Sheskey, the Kenosha, Wisconsin officer who shot Jacob Blake. The officer shot Blake seven times in August after responding to a call regarding a domestic incident, leaving Blake paralyzed. Sheskey will not be charged for his actions, which completely altered the lives of Blake and those close to him. «It is my decision now that no Kenosha law enforcement officer will be charged with any criminal offense based on the facts and laws,» Kenosha County District Attorney Michael Graveley said Tuesday, via CNN. The other two officers will not face charges for the incident as well. James took to Twitter on Tuesday after the news broke. «AT ALL!!!» the basketball star simply tweeted with angry emojis in response to Common’s tweet, which included the Martin Luther King Jr. quote «An unjust law is no law at all.» Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers shared a series of tweets which spoke about how what happened today is evidence that «our work is not done.» «We must work each day in earnest toward a more just, more fair, and more equitable state and country, and to combat the racism experienced by Black Wisconsinites,» Evers wrote. «I hope for peace and justice for Jacob, his family, and the entire Kenosha community.
