To Senator Jim Banks: Having read your comments on the death of Renee Nicole Good, I simply wanted you to read this: you are a vile man. You are a little, despised, disingenuous, cowardly man. You do not represent your constituents who also revile you as much as you transparently revile them, to constantly sell them out and lie to their faces at every turn.  You know exactly what you saw in that video but are too small and cowardly to acknowledge it, as if doing so will prevent this administration from stamping you out underfoot - or perhaps this level of sickness and hatred is inherent to your soul. But the truth is known to anyone with eyes, and both God and the citizens of Indiana will remember this, and they will remember what you said and they will not forgive you.  Understand this if you are capable. Yesterday a woman, a wife, a mother, a private citizen was unequivocally murdered. The agent did not attempt to subdue or arrest her, he shot her in the face three times. He walked away from the scene and was laughing. This is beyond debate what is depicted in the video. If you actually thought she committed any wrongdoing, would you not want her to be arrested, taken to trial? You know in your bones that would not happen because there's nothing to prosecute, and you know exactly why she was killed.  I mourn the day the Republicans in Indiana push their faces down in kowtowing when the ICE brigade marches into our town. Who will stop them from murdering our mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers? Will you continue to ignore the evidence of your eyes and ears in service of Big Brother? And when your time comes will you still have the temerity to feel sorry for yourself? Know this: an election is coming. Hoosiers are as a group more empathetic, Godlier and deeply humane than you have apparently ever been, and they will not forget what happened or what you have said. They will not forget your repeated failure to act. They will not forget your naked cowardice.
