A very powerful read.

Airmen deserve the right to the freedoms they fight for. This senseless murder could have been avoided. 📢 A mother is grieving the unimaginable loss of her son, Air Force Senior Airman Roger Fortson, who was tragically murdered in his own home by those sworn to protect him. This heartbreaking incident hits close to home, especially on Mother's Day weekend. ✅ It is essential to address the many wrongs that occurred in this case and reflect on some key thoughts: 1️⃣ It is deeply disturbing that an American Airman was murdered in his own home by those who were supposed to ensure his safety. The second amendment protects this Airman and after viewing the bodycam, his firearm was pointed downward with no resistance. The officer reacted in fear instead of responding. 2️⃣ It is important for everyone, especially white individuals, to understand that calling the police on a Black person, even for assistance, can have fatal consequences. 3️⃣ "Karen's" or individuals who make biased or discriminatory calls should be held partially responsible for any harm caused. Perhaps we should consider involving multiple citizens in qualifying a "welfare check." 4️⃣ Police officers must receive proper support for PTSD, Trauma counseling and undergo bias training. Experiencing regular violent situations can have significant physical and psychological effects that need professional attention. 5️⃣ Officers should be trained in effective de-escalation techniques that are equitable and applicable to all situations. 6️⃣ The lack of accountability for law enforcement officers involved in cases concerning Black individuals is unacceptable. We need systemic changes in law enforcement training and accountability to address this issue. We must demand better accountability and systemic change. Airman Fortson deserves justice, and his grieving mother deserves answers. As a mother of a Black and Hispanic Army Warrant Officer around the same age, this incident deeply concerns me. 📰 Read more about this tragic incident: [Link to the news article](https://lnkd.in/g-vWQ5hP) #JusticeForAirmanFortson #SystemicChange #Accountability

What Preneed plans can do for individuals and families At the loss of a loved one, the last thing their family needs to worry about is the cost and stress of a funeral. That’s why preneed programs exist. By taking care of typical end-of-life expenses, a preneed policy allows families to properly grieve and focus on the legacy of their loved one.

Please pre-plan your funeral. What I remember most clearly about my father's funeral was standing in the funeral home trying to make decisions about all of the details. Let your family know at least some basics of how you'd like them to celebrate your life. Where will the service be held? Do you want to be buried - where? Cremated - where do the cremains go? None of the above? Having at least some direction is better than none. #powerofpartnership #getyourhouseinorder #funeralplanning #endoflifeplanning #powerofpartnership
