this situation of oh Thomas is giving get out. It was a small boat. It was not a Titanic. And don't tell me I don't see color. I see color. I can see your brown. I can see your white. I can see your this. I I can see it with my eyes. I don't judge you because of your skin color. I can see what you are. Just like if you are a transgender pretending to be a a woman or a a man. I can see what you are and I will move accordingly because I don't have a mental illness. So I can't say to you guys I don't see color. I I don't I'm not color blind. I do see color. I can see that's a Caucasian person. I can see that's black. That's Indian. That's colored. Blah blah blah.
I can see. What do you mean I don't see color? Those are the people that you should be wary of. Right. But my marinated brothers and sisters, this is just a warning and this is something that I live by. You cannot be around a group where your race, especially when it comes to meat people. There's no way you can be around Caucasian people and you're just surrounded basically. Where's the boat? Where's that [ __ ] boat now? I say those BOATS ALWAYS THERE BY THAT BOAT. Where did IT GO? I WANT THAT BOAT. I'm not pointing it at anyone specific cuz I don't know who the killer is. I know for damn sure it was me, but I know somebody there did it. It's giving. I know what you did last summer.
Yeah, I know what you did last summer. Help me understand this because it's not making sense. A 17year-old boy, Thomas, goes on a boat cruise with his friends friends on the Val River. He's alive, lovey. They're sitting right next to each other. It's goingiandi. This was not like a big big boat. It was a small boat. Eight to 10 people max. They all shoulderto-shoulder. Somehow Thomas disappears. And every single person on that boat says the same thing. We didn't see anything. We don't know what happened. How do you not notice a human being vanish when you're sitting next to them? Make it make sense.
And later on, guess what? The body was found later in the Val River drowning. and they call it mysterious. Why was the family only informed the next day?
So, we were informed by um Victoria, who's Thomas's sister, on Saturday. The incident happened on Friday. He went missing since probably like 5 6:00 p.m. Friday. And apparently the guys um had been trying to look for him and only tried to reach out to the parents say about 10:00 at night around that time. So my thing is that someone's child is lost in a boat in the river. You are searching. Are you not trying to find the parents? Are you not trying to contact the police to make sure that you find the the people who can come here and actually account for this child?
You know, we were only told about this incident, like I said, the Saturday morning and we had to quickly come here. And when we got here, we were met by we were not even met by anyone. And we literally just found the police here who did not even give us a time of day.
These police officers did not even speak to us. We don't know who they are. Well, we have names. There is um a message from one of um from Francois who's um apparently the the
the owner the owner of the boat who's also the parent of one of the boys who was on that boat and he was driving this boat.
So if there's an adult, why is this adult not going to the police immediately? They are not able to retrieve a child in the water. Why did they decide to not do anything?
I mean the child was in a boat in the river with other people. But they all decided that they don't want to say anything until the next day.
I think it was irresponsible of the the other parents rather the the the the person who was driving the parents where the child was visiting. It was really responsible for them and we want the the police to investigate this thing. Okay. So, were you showing the boat that they were traveling on?
We haven't seen the boat. We haven't seen the boat, but one of the boys showed me a picture of what the boat looks like, and unfortunately, I did not ask for that picture, but yes, we we
No, no, no. The the phone was found with one of the boys. They had the phone, the the phone and his his belongings. So, we went to his house to retrieve the belongings.
Okay. So the boat was it something that they usually did with his friends Thomas and friends on the boat?
Yes, it was something that they and from from what we hear is that they would literally jump into the river and swim and he was also capable of doing that and if the boys got tired they would call a the boat to come and pick them up. So what happened this time around? What is that different thing that no one is saying happened? We want to know that.
Mhm. That is all we want to know. That little piece of information, that glimmer of hope, that's all we want to know.
No one hated my brother. No one had a problem with my brother. Something is very fishy. The incident happened on Friday I think around 5:00 to something to 6:00 and I only received a call uh Saturday around half told us that the the case has been opened at Fabil Park but when we went there there was nothing like that. biggest question I was I've been asking is where is this boat because we are not seeing any boat that the other children that were there decided to go on camping is is is quite telling
now you in your silliness are so forgiving you know white folk ain't even ask for forgiveness I want you to hear White folk haven't even acknowledged that they did you wrong.
They have not repented. Now Chad, be careful of your friends and be careful of your friends parents cuz tell me why a young gentleman by the name of Thomas to went on a boat trip with his friends and the parents. You understand? And that resulted in his passing. His lifeless body was found in a river, bro. Time everybody said they knew nothing. You understand? Majority. Okay, let me not say that part. Everyone say they knew nothing. And look, bro, majority of those people that went on a boat trip, we're not people of color, bro. You understand?
Dazzling Diamond, welcome to the vault. Dazzling Diamonds. Did you guys hear about the story? I got Thomas to a 17-year-old boy, right? Who drowned in the in the at the be or the V a river or lake there? A river. Yeah, lake. I'm thinking of Florida lake, right? and he was out and about with his um schoolmates and one chaperon I think there was one adult parent. Now when you look at the picture of who's in that picture majority of the people in that picture were Caucasian and then it was him and another um melanated brother right and apparently allegedly they were riding on this boat riding on this boat having a great time. They're all friends. And then they didn't realize that Thomas fell off the boat to the point where his family only found out the next day that Thomas was missing when everybody is being questioned.
It was a small boat. It was not a Titanic. Right. They only informed the parents the next day your son is missing. and him and the other melonated boy are the only two meated people there. No shade, no harm, no foul. It's not a race thing that I'm trying to say. But what I am trying to say to you is my marinated brothers and sisters, you cannot and don't tell me I don't see color. I see color. I can see your brown. I can see your white. I can see your this. I I can see it with my eyes. I don't judge you because of your skin color. I can see what you are. Just like if you are a transgender pretending to be a a woman or a a man. I can see what you are and I will move accordingly because I don't have a mental illness. So I can't say to you guys, I don't see color. I I I'm not color blind. I do see color. I can see that's a Caucasian person. I can see that's black, that's Indian, that's colored, blah blah blah. I can see. What
do you mean? I don't see color. Those are the people that you should be wary of, right? But my marinated brothers and sisters, this is just a warning and this is something that I live by. You cannot be around a group where your race, especially when it comes to melaninated people. There's no way you can be around Caucasian people and you're just surrounded basically. It for me it doesn't really feel safe. The ratio of Caucasian to melaninated people has to balance in some way. There has to be someone that will tell the truth when [ __ ] goes when [ __ ] hits the fan.
There has to be someone that's going to call it out when there's a problem, when the races clash, because these things do happen. Let's stop living ignorantly and saying, "I don't see color. People see color." It doesn't mean that you are racist because your eyes are working. You can see a brown person and a white person. That's it. It's that simple. You can see a transgender and a person that is not transgender. That is it. You don't have to be a racist or be a what's this? Homophobe. But the fact that you can see it for what it is, that's a normal thing. That means you're functioning. But to lie to yourself and other people, that's weird to me. When somebody starts to say, especially if they're Caucasian, and they say to me, "I don't see color."
You're done. I'm not We're not even going to talk anymore. I'm not engaging with you. You're lying. Even when black people say, "I don't see color." We're done. What do you mean? Cuz I can see it. I'm not blind. Only a blind person cannot see the color. What do you mean? cuz you want to sound like I'm I'm I'm a good person. If you're a good person, we will know that by your actions. Actions speak louder than words. But don't lie about I don't see color cuz everybody does. Who can see? So if you are in Caucasian people, make sure that your people and me people the ratio matches or at least you in a comfortable situation. Yeah, it goes for um me lazy people to Caucasian people.
There has to be a balance because now they're saying that this guy, he fell off. Nobody saw. How could you not hear a splash a sound and in the picture he's wearing a life jacket? He was the only one there, I think. But he's very visible that he's wearing a life jacket. How did he drown? How did nobody hear the splash? something happened to that boy that is worse than what we think. There's no way. I'm not stupid. And then some of the other kids when they when the um news crew is interviewing, okay, you were there. What happened? And they're like, I don't know. I don't know what um where are the other kids? They are still camping. How are you still camping when this tragedy has just happened?
You just got to go on with your life because I mean we did see two years ago when that other guy fed the black ladies to the pigs. Not to say that this was a race thing. All I'm saying is your color Caucasian and melaninated it has to balance in some way or another. But have you ever noticed that when Caucasian people, there can be one Caucasian person amongst um marinated people, marinated people are more welcoming and they want to teach you about their culture and show you this that and the other. Nine times out of 10, you're safer. But when it comes to the ratio of a male person to Caucasian people, it becomes really tricky. It's giving it get out. The movie Get Out. this situation of oh Thomas is giving get out because nobody knows what happened. He is the only one and he was wearing a life jacket that drown nobody heard the splash. Nobody saw anything. He didn't say help or splatter or something.
Nobody saw anything and there were so many people on that boat. That's because that's not what happened. He didn't fall off that boat. When he was on that boat he was safer. something else happened where maybe the other kids didn't see but they felt a vibe. Those kids know. Go and ask those kids what happened. Go and ask where the tension was, where the beef was, and you will find the person that murdered that boy because that's exactly what happened to Thomas. And you cannot sugarcoat it. It doesn't make any freaking sense. It doesn't.
And there was one adult who's Caucasian. I'm not saying that the the adult is the one that did anything or his child or anything like that. I'm just saying it's weird, is it not? I can't point any fingers. I wasn't there. But I'm telling you this is foul play. That boy didn't just fall off wearing a life jacket and drown. He wouldn't have drowned with a life jacket on. Something happened to him. And if the other kids are being earnest and honest about not seeing or hearing anything, that means that child was killed somewhere there at the campsite, wherever, wherever, and then dumped.
That's why they wouldn't know. But who did it? I've watched too much of the crime channel. Who did it? It's going to come out. It always does. It always does. Your money can't save you, whoever you might be. And then why are those other kids still camping after your friend has died? You're still camping. You're not even scared of the water at this point. I'd give it, you know, a month or so, but I'd be like very weary, but you're still camping because you know exactly what happened. Maybe you're enjoying your last days out. freedom cuz you're going to get caught.
Examine that boy's body. He probably has bruises. There's a struggle. They are going to find my opinion. This is just my thinking. This is how like this is how I see it. And in my mind, I'm seeing something bad. There was a struggle. Check underneath his nails. Check his body for bruising. I feel like if he fell and just drowned, he wouldn't have defensive marks or something like that or what have you. And apparently alle apparently allegedly they can't find the boat that was used that day. Where's the boat? Where's that [ __ ] boat now?
Those boats ALWAYS THERE. FIND THAT BOAT. Where did IT GO? I WANT THAT BOAT. And I need you to go and examine that boy's body. Go and examine his body. I don't know if because he was in water cuz the family only found out the next day. I don't know how the water has compromised, but you're going to find evidence on that child. Hopefully the water didn't didn't soak it all away. Somebody did something to that boy. Question is who? Cuz now even some of the Caucasian girls are posting and saying, "Oh, my friend lost. What what what what you guys know who had beef with them?"
Cuz apparently he was like a hyper boy likes to dance. Somebody was jealous cuz there's a girl there in that group that wanted him and he wanted her but he's black, right? So somebody was like, "Why would you want him? I got money. I got everything." But he had aura. That's just my thinking. That's how I'm seeing this thing, man. This doesn't it feel like that when you look at that picture and then you see his videos of him on TikTok where he was dancing and all the girls liked him. And that's what I'm feeling. Something it's something like that, isn't it? Yeah. They need to look at this now.
That's how they have to investigate this thing. With that in mind and then go check that body autopsy, baby. I hope the water didn't compromise the evidence because it's going to come out. This is weird. There's no There's no way. Y'all ain't getting away with this. Never. There's no way. You're not. You're not. You kill us. Whoever you might be, cuz I don't know who the killer is, I might be pointing my finger, but I'm not pointing it at anyone specific cuz I don't know who the killer is. I know for damn sure it was me, but I know somebody there did it.
It's giving. I know what you did last summer. Yeah, I know what you did last summer. You have a problem. Clink clink.
