The news media wants to portray the man killed in the NYC subway system as someone who was violent, while withholding the name of the man who killed him.

This article gets it right.

If you really want to learn what type of person Jordan Kneely was, read this.

She also was strangled. That kind of stopped my brain, for a minute.

Strangled, and then cut into pieces and thrown into a suitcase. 😳 No child would know how to process that.

Me too. We need get back our humanity and treat everyone respectfully and with empathy. We have a long way to go in this country.

I don't know what it will take - or even if its possible - to change how we treat others. Some of us are wired to naturally be empathetic human beings, and others are not. Just as there are givers and there are takers.

I believe it starts in our formative years. What are we doing wrong?

I know, that is shocking.

We as a society have failed this young man his entire life. He never received the support he needed to deal with his trauma. Nor have we sufficiently dealt with the homeless crisis.

He was asking for help, and he was murdered instead.
