College Freshman Stabbed to Death After Seeing Three Young Women Being Groped and Stepping in to Help

With final exams on the horizon, Donnell Marcus Phelps was all set to finish his freshman year at Fort Valley State University in Georgia.

The 19-year-old from Marshallville had been studying agricultural engineering technology but also found time to manage the university’s tennis team.

 And help those in need. 

Late Tuesday afternoon he witnessed a man harassing three young ladies. The man was touching these girls in a very inappropriate way, so he decided to step in. However, he was forced to bring fists to a knife fight.

An autopsy showed Phelps was stabbed four times in the upper torso with a pocket knife with a 3.5-inch blade.

“Words cannot describe the pain that we all feel in the Fort Valley State community,” university President Paul Jones said at news conference, offering condolences to Phelps’ family, friends, students and the entire community.

Johnson described Phelps as selfless: “He always gave us hugs, and he’d always check up on us,” she added to the Telegraph.

Donnell Phelps died a hero. His Mom did an incredible job raising an amazing person. God bless this young man for his sacrificial act of bravery. His life matters.

 RIP Donnell Phelps.

Only 19 years old and died protecting women in a day and age when people will literally be bystanders & shut an eye to someone else being harmed. Beyond brave and this is so heart breaking.

My therapist and I decided that from now on, when I’m thinking something negative about myself, I’m going to imagine that Donald Trump is saying it, because it’s really easy for me to just tell him to fuck off.

Example:

Trump: “Your thighs are fat.” Me: “Fuck you and your fucking wall.”

I think we’re onto something here.

Why I didn't reblog your "missing person" post

There’s no date on it.

There’s no number to call if we actually do see that person.

It’s just a random picture and I have to take your word for it that the person’s name, age, and last known location are all accurate.

Therefore:

For all I know that kid was found two years ago.

Or was never missing.

[charleythehouseplant]

We don’t know if they’re actually missing or if the post was made by an abuser looking for their victim.

Last week a post circulated on Swedish facebook about a missing person. Turns out the woman had changed her identity to get away from her abusive (ex-)husband. Now she has to go through it all again. The police went out and told people to fucking stop spreading posts like these without thinking, and to call the police if you see the person, not some random you’ve never met.

This is what the Iowa Democratic race looks like Tuesday morning. Hillary Clinton’s campaign is claiming victory, while Bernie Sanders’ says it’s still too close to call. 

[theshameimarureport]

All! This is the reason why we all need to TURN THE FUCK UP. TURN. UP. Register! 

Look at the Entrance Polls stating who is coming in (Squeezed together for visibility)

VOTERS 17-29 (18% of voters) = BERNIE SANDERS BY 84% v. CLINTON’S 14% 

VOTERS 30-44 (19% of voters) = BERNIE SANDERS BY 58% v. CLINTON’S 37%

37% of voters ARE UNDER 45.

64% of voters ARE OVER 45.

–

THIS PROVES RIGHT HERE, YOUR VOTE MATTERS.

Register the FUCK to vote. And TURN UP. Just a few more waking up and getting over to the caucuses would have turned a TIE into a WIN. Just think on how the primaries would go! Register! Party affiliate! And don’t stop at voting just for President, but get yourselves heard by picking reps so Congress AND STATE REPS AND GOVERNORS realizes that they can’t “just listen to the old generation” anymore.

Change that voter percentage so all of you all’s voices can be heard. Up that percentage! Do whatever it takes to show up! We have truly the ability to change things if we JUST SHOW UP.

[alibuttons]

PLEASE VOTE, EVERYONE. THIS IS IMPORTANT!

[heathens-and-kings]

I need y'all to promise me that you’ll vote for Bernie Sanders in the primaries. That you’ll put the effort in. He almost won yesterday y'all. We can do this. We HAVE to do this. We can’t rely on the older generations to have our best interests in mind anymore, they’ve already proven they don’t.

Please vote in the primaries. Show Hillary and everyone else that we aren’t going down without a fight.

friendly reminder that the human race currently has the technological capacity to eradicate poverty and secure a safe existence for every person but that doesn’t happen because capitalists limit production so they can make money and live in comparative luxury to the rest of us
