Tanks, Man. Tanks a lot.


I don't who this guy was.
Or what has happened to him.
Maybe he's okay, hiding out.
Maybe he's in some black hole for the rest of his life.
Or maybe they ended his life.

There were a million protesters there, they say.
A million.
A million unarmed protesters.
And so there came the ever-predictable conclusion when there's a conflict between people who have guns and people who don't.

I look at this photo and it makes me weep in a deep aching part of myself
that mourns for us all.

Still don't know what happened to him, but there is a little more information about the story.
