Breonna Taylor’s Petition Has Still Not Hit Its Goal. It Takes Next To No Time At All To Sign It. So

Hey FYI the way they show CPR on TV isn't how it actually goes. They can't do proper CPR on actors because its dangerous to do it properly on someone whos heart is still beating, but that pathetic soft little gentle chest-press that you see on films and shows? And the way their shoulders move a lot? Yeah, nah.

CPR is hard work. You've got to press the persons chest down one third of the chests depth. Thats not something you can do by pressing gently on a chest. You have to have straight arms, lock your shoulders, and use your whole body weight to press down on the chest. And you have to do it fast. A great song to sing to get the pace right is Staying Alive by the Bee Gees. Easy to remember, because when you're pumping someone's chest to manually manipulate their heart you are gonna be begging that they stay alive.

I really cannot emphasise the importance of learning CPR enough. It's so important. Please learn it. Even if you dont have access to a proper course -- even if you just look some tutorials up on YouTube, and then practice the pumping action on your mattress, that would be better than nothing.

You dont even have to worry about mouth to mouth, if thats a concern for you; most CPR advice these days is to not bother with mouth to mouth unless there are two of you and you're both trained; the action of chest compressions works well enough to compress and expand the lungs that it sort of functions as a two-fer; it beats the heart and it pumps enough air through the lungs that you don't have to do the mouth to mouth part.

Please learn CPR. Please.

To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.

Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.

It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.

We cannot be silent.
