friendsofbrian get on with it
One week ago today I heard your name for the first time. I didn’t know you any better than I knew anyone I’d run into at the grocery store, but you and your story touched me: I saw a lot of myself in you. I told myself that when they found you I’d fly to wherever you were JUST to give you a hug. My heart broke the day they did.
So many of us wanted to be able to talk to you through the screen and tell you that it wasn't your fault. That the OCD, or the stress, or the anxiety wasn't your fault. You were so upset, while he was laughing and chuckling and seemingly fine with the policemen. His behavior did not match the circumstances. That was not okay, not normal or even appropriate. You had real emotions. And that was okay. He was clearly not right for you, but it was so easy to miss. The policemen missed it too. So many of them missed it. He was good at convincing them that everything was okay. I'm sure he was good at convincing you as well.
We share nothing more than a name and a history of domestic violence, but your magnetic smile captivated me and thousands of strangers from around the globe. I'm so sorry that the last hands you held were violent ones and that we could not save you from them.
Only times moves on to the next scene, memory remains a part of the heart forever. May Gabby have eternal peace, and her love and light shine on through her family. I pray for anyone who is experiencing this same pain. #restingodsglorygabby
Gabby, I hope you know with your whole heart that your blogs weren’t “little”, that your dreams mattered, that your emotions were valid. I hope you know that it’s not okay for someone to grab your jaw and shake it so hard that it hurts. It’s not okay for someone to lock you out of your home. I hope you know that your anxiety is not a reason for someone to be so frustrated with you that they treat you as “less than.” I hope you know it’s okay that you found yourself needing someone who couldn’t provide mutual care and respect. I hope you know that the failure to repair after an argument wasn’t all your fault. I hope you know that punching someone’s arm who is beginning to accelerate while the cops are putting their lights on makes sense. You wanted to abide by the law, not evade it. You admitted to this and took the full weight of blame. I’m so sorry that happened. I hope you know your death was not your fault. You did not deserve to die. I hope your family and friends find rest and comfort in the light you shone on the world. You’ve inspired me to embrace the abundance of life and you’ve shown me and so many what’s important. You’ve inspired me to get back into counseling and volunteering for DV victims. Your death will not be in vain.
At a Zumba class?
This case and Gabby's death have really hit me hard. I do not know Gabby, but she is only 2 years older than my son. So, so young and full of life. Her death is such a loss for the world and the people close to her. Last night, I was at the gym dancing to a Zumba class, I was smiling and having fun and I thought about the fact that Gabby will never smile like that or get to enjoy her zest for life. She was too young to lose that opportunity. I dedicated the rest of my self care last night in meditation and prayer to Gabby Petito. May her soul rest in peace. And may her story change the world.

Out of the loop but is this true? Are disgusting libertarians and alt right incels coopting the #Black lives matter hashtag into #boys love men? Disgusting.
