The U.S. has drone struck Yemen, set Libya on fire, drone struck Pakistan, started a war in Afghanistan and why? The U.S. is bombing Syria and Iraq AGAIN. The U.S. is sending its military back into Somalia, and don’t even act like you don’t know why Vietnam would say, “Death to the West!” The U.S. AND Israel is out to make sure that Iran is ‘declawed’ or in other words, is no threat to Israel by having nukes although, it’s fine for Israel to ‘enjoy’ a nukes program. The U.S. has set up a drone base in Niger and I am certain that if Niger decided to set up a drone base in the U.S., and to say that, “That would not go over well!”, would be the goddamn understatement of the year! And what about Bill Clinton’s War in Yugoslavia? Never forget the U.S. neo-Nazi shit stirrers that have fucked up Ukraine while Russia got the blame. We all should know that U.S. help for Haiti is a fraud! And last but certainly not least, “Death to the West!” for what went down in Ferguson, MO and for what went down in Ohio and for what went down in New York and for what continues to go down every single goddamn day for people all across this shithole! “Death to the West!” Now fucking cart me off to a FEMA camp, I fucking dare ya!

The Ferguson Police ‘Feel’ Under Siege, Play The World’s Smallest Violin For Them!

A recent shooting of two pigs in Ferguson, MO has the pig force feeling under siege. Insert violin concerto here! Two pigs were standing on the outside next to their trough when bullets started whizzing past a few protesters and struck the two pigs near their trough. Both are still alive and well and asking for their daily slop bucket of donuts. And now the other pigs in blue are crying “Foul OINK!” “Oh, it’s not fair! We’re only doing our job of shooting unarmed Black people down! We are only doing our job of routinely targeting African-Americans for arrests and ticketing! Is that really SO bad? It was all sanctioned by the judge, the mayor and all other city officials that are dipped in pig pink! So, why shoot us?”

A scathing Justice Department report sheds a light on the systemic racism that is deeply embedded in the Ferguson, MO police department and court system. Black people are targeted almost exclusively and ticketed in order to raise revenue for the city’s coffers.

The Justice Department report found evidence that the mostly white police force in the two-thirds majority black community was more focused on revenue-raising than public safety. The Justice Department also said officers had a pattern of using excessive force and making illegal arrests, as well as deploying attack dogs and using Tasers on unarmed people.

And yet, the Ferguson pig department feels under siege. Really? For real? So, the Black people that are the victims of their racism; the ones that were subjected to excessive force, illegal arrests, attacked by dogs and were tasered while unarmed should not ‘feel’ under siege? Oh my bad! Racist ass pigs believe that Black people have no feelings to begin with. It all goes back to that slavery and three-fifths of a person law as pertaining to Black people that were dragged over to AmeriKKKa for the sole purpose of being worked to death and bred like animals, AGAIN, for the purpose of being worked to death.

It all becomes so clear. Whenever revenue is needed, why that’s what Black people are for. Who gives a shit about Black people anyway? We can fill our coffers with ill gotten gains from all the bogus traffic stops while judges and their colleagues fix their own tickets. Who’s to know since we run this town? Just ask Judge Ronald J. Brockmeyer, who by the way, has owed back taxes since 2007 to the tune of $170,000, but since he is no different from the pigs in pink, that’s all right!

The judge in Ferguson, Missouri, who is accused of fixing traffic tickets for himself and colleagues while inflicting a punishing regime of fines and fees on the city’s residents, also owes more than $170,000 in unpaid taxes.

Ronald J Brockmeyer, whose court allegedly jailed impoverished defendants unable to pay fines of a few hundred dollars, has a string of outstanding debts to the US government dating back to 2007, according to tax filings obtained by the Guardian from authorities in Missouri.

And there you have it folks; corruption, racism, tax evasion, racial profiling, the use of excessive force, the use of tasers on unarmed Black people, the inflicting of a punishing regime of fines and fees on the city’s majority Black population, system wide abuse of power in the city of Ferguson, MO and the pig pinks dressed in blue ‘feel’ under siege. Ain’t that a bitch? They cannot for the life of them figure out why anyone would want to shoot such fine, upstanding, impartial officers of the law that swore to protect and serve those who pay their salary. They cannot figure it out! Not even with a Justice Department report all up in their snout denoting their use of excessive force against Black people, a report all up in their snout denoting their deployment of attack dogs on unarmed Black people, a report all up in their snout denoting their use of tasers on unarmed Black people, a report all up in their snout for illegally arresting Black people, a report all up in their snout for filling their coffers with bogus traffic ticket money from the Black residents of Ferguson, MO. But let’s get out the violin and bemoan the pig pinks feelings of being under siege!

My Black ass and every other Black person in AmeriKKKa has been under siege since day one in this shithole. Walk a goddamn mile in our shoes and then talk about ‘feeling’ under siege. You worthless motherfuckers are one of the main reasons why we are always under siege and yet, you want to bellyache when someone busts a cap all up in YOUR ass when you goddamn worthless motherfuckers should not be able to get anywhere near a damn cop uniform, gun and badge. You sons-of-bitches terrorize Black people every single goddamn day and YOU’RE under siege??!! Get the fuck outta here with that bullshit! You get no motherfucking sympathy from me, you racist ass bitches!

Obama, You Hypocritical Bastard….!

…how the hell can you stand there with a straight face and declare that Venezuela is a national security threat? A national security threat? Venezuela? Are you shitting me? For fucks sake, this shit gets more ludicrous by the goddamn second! The goddamn White House had this to say,

“Venezuelan officials past and present who violate the human rights of Venezuelan citizens and engage in acts of public corruption will not be welcome here, and we now have the tools to block their assets and their use of U.S. financial systems,” the White House said in a statement.”

Venezuela is violating the human rights of THEIR citizens???!!! …AND the Venezuelan government is corrupt? Oh really??!! For real??!! The United States is violating the human rights of its citizens and you, you piece of filthy ass shit ain’t doing a goddamn thing about it or even posturing over the fact that human rights abuses abound in this shithole called America. And what government body could be more corrupt than the shits that take bribes and kickbacks from the ‘corporations are people’ corporations? Here is a list of American state and local politicians convicted of crimes, but this piece of shit is pointing the finger at Venezuela? For the love of ……!!!

And speaking of human rights abuses, my Black ass cannot even stand on a goddamn street in New York city and sell some loose, untaxed cigarettes without getting choked to death! That is not only a human rights abuse, that is motherfucking outright murder! And the fucks that committed that murder, walk around, free as a goddamn bird.

A 12-year old child by the name of Tamir Rice was gunned down in a park by filth in blue for playing with a toy gun and he is to blame for his own death and THAT is not a human rights abuse, not to mention, once again, goddamn out and out murder.

A mentally ill Black woman got her faced bashed in and beaten all about the body in California for having the goddamn gall to walk down the highway and what happened to her is not considered, a human rights abuse?

Let me set the record straight. What are human rights? Human rights are rights which you are entitled by virtue of being human but apparently, many of us who are American citizens are not considered, human and for that matter, neither are many other people that are held in secret U.S. prisons all across this planet, be they American citizens or otherwise.

Also this article states that the U.N. holds U.S. Accountable for Human Rights Violations At Home and Abroad but what I would like to know is, how so? Because in the article:

“The committee condemned the United States’ lack of accountability for disappearance, torture, and unlawful killings of terrorism suspects, and its failure to apply the ICCPR to international operations. In addition, the committee denounced racial disparities in law enforcement that have led to the incarceration of a disproportionate number of minorities (particularly Blacks and Latinos), effectively denying them basic human rights throughout the criminal justice process. This includes severe sentencing such as the death penalty and life without parole for juveniles; improper use of solitary confinement; and denial of civil rights following incarceration (most notably, the right to vote).”

Again, how is the U.N. holding the U.S. accountable for its human rights abuses since not a goddamn thing has changed? The U.S. is busily abusing our human right to privacy at this very minute by recording my motherfucking key strokes and listening in on my phone calls and having the ability, if they don’t like what they see or hear, to have my ass drone struck at any given moment without benefit of counsel or trial. So what the fuck difference did it make for the U.N. to even bother condemning this shithole for human rights abuses when this shithole is GOD to the goddamn world by virtue of its military?

This GOD called America can determine that Venezuela is abusing human rights when this shithole has not one goddamn human rights leg to stand on because they’ve all collapsed in a heap and been shoveled into a goddamn hot ass furnace, burned the fuck up and the ashes as was the case with Osama bin Laden was thrown into the goddamn Ocean, never to be seen or heard from again! Damn it all to hell! The blatant, outrageous hypocrisy of the shits at the helm of this lopsided, sinking, stinking shithole barge, knows no bounds! How the hell do they come off looking askance at another country’s perceived human rights abuses when this shithole is mired in human rights abuses and is damn fucking proud of it? Just ask Dick Cheney who is so fucking proud of the fact that innocent people were tortured to death, so proud to the point that he would do it all again in someone else’s heartbeat! Now if that don’t beat all? Why that heart that he stole from someone that was most likely cooling their heels in a U.S. prison, refuses to beat in his filthy ass chest is a mystery to me! Because if it was my heart that they had given to that depraved, blood thirsty, demonic bastard, it would have leaped up off the goddamn table and fled the goddamn building and thrown itself in front of a motherfucking bus so as not to get set inside that filthy bastard’s nasty ass chest! Meanwhile, Chelsea Manning is rotting in prison for exposing torture, war crimes, lies and hypocrisy, otherwise known as human rights abuses while Edward Snowden is in exile for exposing human rights abuses in the form of the U.S. government spying on us all as if we are all, enemies of the State. If that don’t take the goddamn cake!

The United States reigns supreme in human rights abuses and that is why China has told this shithole to “Fuck off!” when chastising them over their human rights abuses and so have other countries over this ‘pot calling the kettle, black’!

Is the U.N. going to recommend that the U.S. sanction its damn self over its human rights abuses? Fuck no because everybody is goddamn terrified of the U.S. and with good reason, with the exception of Russia’s Vladimir Putin who even condemned this shithole for the human rights abuses perpetrated on the Ferguson protesters when they protested the murder of Michael Brown by a racist ass cop. China had this to say, “It’s ironic that the U.S., with its brutal manner of assimilating minorities, never ceases to accuse China and countries like it of violating the rights of minorities,” and Russia had this to say, “Russia’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement last week that the United States needs to clean its own house if it wants to call itself a “bastion of human rights” that “declares its own ‘exceptionalism.’ ”

“I would like to advise the American leaders to pay more attention to restoring order in their country before imposing its dubious experience on other states,” the Foreign Ministry said.”

But now the shits that run this shithole are pointing the human rights abuse finger at Venezuela and getting out the “SIGH”….sanctions book AGAIN! Who the fuck hasn’t been, is being or will be sanctioned by this hypocritical shithole? Cuba has been sanctioned as has Iran, Iraq, Russia, Burma, North Korea, Côte d’Ivoire and now, Venezuela.

AGAIN, I say, “WORLD!!!” Get your act together! Get up off your ass and blow this shithole to hell! Send your goddamn secret messages by carrier pigeon if you have to in order to elude the goddamn NSA, CIA, FBI and all the rest of the spying eyes over here and carry this thing through to end the reign of this shithole and blow Great Britain’s ass to kingdom come along with it because the two go hand in hand. Cut your losses already and get with the program that this shit is never going to let up off your ass and the hypocrisy is overwhelmingly all up in your face. It is undeniable and they lie and don’t even blink!

WORLD, you’ve got three choices! Expect to kneel and continue to kowtow to this sick ass twisted shit here in America and in Great Britain or get sanctioned to pieces and then have drones and other missiles raining down on your heads or plot together and destroy this shit, once and for all! My continued hope is for the latter! Do yourselves and US, a goddamn favor! Blow it the hell up!!

Malcolm X, How We Need You!

Malcolm X, how we need you.
The movement now is dead,
and the slaves are in the pen.
Black power has all but fled.

What’s left are Uncle Toms,
and coons that play the fool.
They bow down before ole Massa,
and for his scraps, they all but drool.

There is none throughout this land
that can spit your fire and truth.
And the sad fact of the matter is,
we refuse to protect our youth.

With a half and half in the White House,
the movement is tagged and bagged.
And with bootlicking in the halls of justice,
the Black man’s voice is bound and gagged.

They all stand idly by,
and watch their numbers dwindle.
There is no man among these men,
that could a movement, kindle.

They look around and wait,
for a savior to light the way.
And when they’re shot or sent to jail,
they just stare in mute dismay.

Oh Malcolm X, we know you’re gone,
and we will never see your like.
Today, our men tremble in fear,
while the militants are out on strike.

“Any time Uncle Sam, with all his machinery for warfare, is held to a draw by some rice eaters, he’s lost the battle. He had to sign a truce. America’s not supposed to sign a truce. She’s supposed to be bad. But she’s not bad any more. She’s bad as long as she can use her hydrogen bomb, but she can’t use hers for fear Russia might use hers. Russia can’t use hers, for fear that Sam might use his. So, both of them are weapon-less. They can’t use the weapon because each [country’s] weapon nullifies the other’s. So the only place where action can take place is on the ground. And the white man can’t win another war fighting on the ground. Those days are over. The black man knows it, the brown man knows it, the red man knows it, and the yellow man knows it. So they engage him in guerrilla warfare. That’s not his style. You’ve got to have heart to be a guerrilla warrior, and he hasn’t got any heart.”

“It takes heart to be a guerrilla warrior because you’re on your own. In conventional warfare you have tanks and a whole lot of other people with you to back you up—planes over your head and all that kind of stuff. But a guerrilla is on his own. All you have is a rifle, some sneakers and a bowl of rice, and that’s all you need—and a lot of heart.”

– Malcolm X

And ‘heart’ is exactly what we are losing even though we know that America ain’t about shit when it comes to hand-to-hand combat and that is why drones were invented because whites can’t fight up close and personal and win. And even with using drones, ISIS is still kicking ass and will continue to do so while Black bodies pile up at the morgue in America and Black women will continue to moan and wail over the demise of their sons and daughters. We don’t have what it takes and now, we never will. We should be fucking shit up over here but all we do is raise our hands in the air and march down the goddamn street begging some white motherfucker to give us the same goddamn rights that are afforded to the whites by the Constitution. So, do you still think that the Constitution and the Bill of Rights pertain to you, Black man and Black woman? And since they don’t apply to you, they sure as hell don’t apply to your children. But go ahead! Sign up to go and fuck with ISIS or fuck up the Iraqi people some more and continue to disturb the goddamn peace in Afghanistan and if they send your ass to Libya, you’re in for it ’cause it’s off the goddamn chain, thanks to the good ole red, white and blue and bully NATO.

You are marching because some white motherfucker shot and killed your son or daughter because the whites are afraid of you. That is why they don’t bother to get up close and personal, they just shoot you from 300 yards away. That is why police departments all across this shithole have requested and received militarized weaponry from warzones because they want to launch a grenade all up your ass from miles away. Next, they’re going to be drone striking your ass because that’s what the whites are doing to every other Black and Brown body all across this planet. Malcolm X warned you in ways too numerous to count and when he died, all of his fire and spirit and truth and action died and was buried with him and now, we just quote him and protest and march against the next murder of one of our own by racist ass cops. That’ll show ’em!

Time To Celebrate Black History Month…AGAIN!

They cannot celebrate Black History Month because they are history!

Where shall we begin? Let us celebrate the 11% unemployment rate for Black men even though the national unemployment aka jobless rate stands at 5.9% and if your head’s not stuck up your ass, then you know that even that is a damn lie! Break out the champagne Black folks for those of you who can afford a bottle of say, Andre Cold Duck! Clink those plastic cups together and then piss in the wind because it’s all blowing back your way anyway; the shit that keeps hitting the fan, that is.

Next on our celebration list is the shit that is going down in our public education system better known as the ‘school-to-prison pipeline’ if you’re a student of color in these here United States of America where we celebrate Black History Month each and every February. This month is dedicated to showcasing the achievements of Black people in America. We are celebrating each and every single achievement that has not yet occurred but will eventually occur and we are real sure of this happening any day now.

To continue the celebrations, let us look at the child poverty statistics that are sure to impress us during these celebrations of future achievements that we are hell bent on celebrating this month. We are celebrating the fact that ‘child poverty in America is at its highest point in 20 years, putting millions of children at increased risk of injuries, infant mortality, and premature death’. And if that isn’t bad enough, ‘7 million kids still don’t have health insurance’. This is just so worth celebrating, what an achievement! What a dream as opposed to a nightmare. I wonder what that famous man who had a dream, would think of this. I seriously wonder.

But wait! There is more to celebrate this Black History Month! The good news just keeps on coming. ‘Incarceration rate for African-Americans now six times the national average’ is still making headlines among Black prisoners and their mostly white guards and the white slave patrol that arrested them for say, selling loose, untaxed cigarettes, selling marijuana or crack while completely ignoring the white man that was buying said crack and marijuana from the guilty by birth African-American other wise known as Colored otherwise known as Black otherwise known as felon or prisoner no.1,000,034. White folks, why don’t you just lock up every single Black person at birth? It’ll save you the trouble of doing so later on since many of us will know what it feels like to be shackled just as those we are descended from knew what it felt like. And the beat goes on and we celebrate it.

And ‘here’s the Data That Shows Cops Kill Black People at a Higher Rate Than White People’, now ain’t that a bitch?! Unfortunately, Michael Brown is not here to celebrate this Black History Month with us because he was shot and killed by a cop. Twelve year old Tamir Rice is also not here this year to help us celebrate because he was shot and killed by a cop while playing with a toy gun in a park. John Crawford, likewise, is not here to celebrate because he was shot and killed by a cop in Wal-Mart while holding a toy gun.  Eric Garner, unfortunately, for him, was selling loose, untaxed cigarettes and that cost him his life and so he will not be joining in the celebrations. Terrance Franklin was shot and killed by cops following a traffic stop and he will not be celebrating ether. Seven year-old Aiyana Stanley-Jones was shot  and killed by a cop while she slept and the charge of manslaughter against the cop that shot and killed her was dropped and so, she is not just ‘under-the-weather’, she is underground and therefore, is not able to celebrate this historic month. Let us celebrate on her behalf.

Fortunately, I have found yet another statistic that gives us even more of a reason to celebrate Black history month. Black families are seven times more likely to be homeless. We have come so far this February in the year of our Lord 2015, have we not? Blacks make up half of the U.S. homeless population. Doesn’t that just give you a warm and comfortable, cozy feeling that those homeless people lack? These are achievements that we have here folks! Time to celebrate and to keep the momentum going. Our ancestors would be so proud of where we are today. Don’t you think? Does this not make you aware that BLACK LIVES DO NOT MATTER?!

Now, on the other hand, Tyler Perry will dress up in drag and put some Black folks to work on another Madea movie and Beyoncé will croon about a Halo for Jay-Z and Jay-Z will rap about niggas while DMX will head back to prison for drug possession, get out on probation again and then go right back in for drug possession. Viola Davis will have no problem getting cast as yet another maid after her role in ‘The Help’ and Forest Whitaker is probably all set to play yet another version of someone’s Butler since every one is well aware that us Black folks are so good at bowing and scraping and being subservient to our ‘betters’.

Finally, I’ve given you many reasons to celebrate this month. The reasons are endless and our achievements that we will watch for some time in the future are making life much better for so many of us and that is why we must enjoy this Black History Month. We have no need to march and protest like those Black people in the 1960s did. We are so past that in this here post-racial America. I mean, what we have here is a post-racial America, is it not? But nevertheless, Dr. King would be so proud as would his stalwart, fellow marchers-in-arms at the progress that we have made since his infamous, I Have A Dream speech. We shall overcome! Uh…what I meant to say is that, “We did overcome!” Now like the good little sheep you are, start celebrating all of this shit!! And look ahead to when the REAL achievements will come because surely they must come!

 

No One Gives A Damn About His Dream!

Yes, let us celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Day when we don’t give a damn about his dream. His children don’t even give a damn about his dream since they are too busy fighting over his Bible and his Nobel Peace Prize. So when did they ever listen to any one of their father’s speeches? When did they ever take just one to heart? It is quite obvious that they never did and neither do we. Oh we dutifully put his image up for all to see as if we are actually doing something and the truth is, we’re not doing a damn thing about realizing the dream that this man had. And quite frankly, he is not the only one to have a dream. Many, many Black people have been dreaming of a society where they will not be “judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character” and is that the case? If you are Black, you will forever be judged by the color of your skin because as far as whites are concerned, you have no ‘content of character’.

Just recently we marched and protested that #BlackLivesMatter and for all I know, some are still protesting, but do Black lives matter? Answer this. How many world leaders came to America and stood front and center in front of a million people to say “#Je suis Black?” How many world leaders went to Nigeria when Boko Haram killed over 2,000 Nigerians and said “#Je suis Nigeria?” Did Netanyahu? Did Angela Merkel? Did Francois Hollande? Of course they didn’t.

“French President Francois Hollande is surrounded by Heads of state including (LtoR) Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mali’s President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel, European Council President Donald Tusk, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Italy’s Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and Switzerland’s President Simonetta Sommaruga” ‘to protest the murders of Charlie Hebdo employees, employees of a piece of filth rag claimed as a satirical political weekly that produced racist and blasphemous filth. But still, some white folks got killed over their ‘freedom of expression’ and so solidarity was called for’.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/01/11/us-france-shooting-idUSKBN0KK05S20150111

To those people, Black and Brown lives don’t matter. White lives do. It doesn’t matter how vile whites are and how much corruption they spread and how greedy they are. Their lives are the only lives that matter. It has always been this way and it will always be this way. These are the ‘people’ that you march and protest to and who you want to correct wrongs. Think about it. Why should they? They don’t care about you. Michael Jackson told you that but you believed all the lies put out on him by the whites. They tore that man’s reputation to shreds because he had a message and through his talent, he spoke. But he got silenced. Whitney Houston had the most beautiful voice that I have ever heard and yet, where is she? Dead and buried and some filthy slut named Beyoncé is strutting around in nothing, sounding like shit. And if it’s not her crooning to her piece of filth pimp, it’s Nicki Minaj doing much of the same. And what are the Black men of today doing besides rapping about bling and hoes or getting their bodies mucked up playing sports? Yes, we are realizing the dream, aren’t we?

Today we commemorate Dr. Martin Luther King’s accomplishments; the success of the Civil Rights Movement when in fact, the movement was not a success. It was an unmitigated failure. What has changed since Martin Luther King marched along with all the others who peacefully gathered to have their grievances heard? Not a goddamn thing. The same issues and problems that Dr. King’s marchers faced, we face today; only our tormenters have upped the ante. We’re now shot with rubber bullets and tear gassed, but we are still jailed. That’s a given and never will it be any different. And why are we still marching? We were marching in the 1960s and here we are in 2015, still marching for the same damn things. What’s the point? Who needs to become aware of what we are marching for? They already know. It’s not going to change, that’s what those of you who are still marching need to know. If you haven’t figured out that since the same shit is stil in play 50 years after the Selma to Montgomery march, then your marching ain’t gonna change a damn thing because since when have Black lives mattered?

The people that you want to change things are not going to change them. They like things just the way they are and that is why the police force has been militarized, that is why Black bodies are lying in morgues all across this shithole called America, that is why inner city schools have become a pipeline to prison for little Black children, that is why slavery in the form of the prison industrial complex is necessary, to house the slaves who ‘slave’ away for corporations, producing goods at a fraction of the cost. And those of us on the outside, head right inside a store and purchase what slaves have made. We are slaving away at stupid jobs to purchase what other slaves have produced. But we will continue to march and we will continue to protest and dream and hope and wish and pray and maybe someday, someday, someday, those who we want to see our marches will realize that this is all so wrong and they will then right the wrongs. Stop lying to yourself and stop dreaming. Dreams are for people who are asleep and don’t want to wake up because reality sucks. It stinks. No one is going to realize your dream for you but you.

The powerful that control all of us are not going to loosen their grip. They are not going to stop being corrupt, greedy, deceitful and instead are going to recognize that they should share in the wealth that they have acquired by the fact of your making it possible by your willingness to work for peanuts, by your willingness to indebt yourselves to them to purchase what slaves are producing, including you. We are all slaves. We are all enclosed in our own little cages. We have the illusion of freedom, some of us, but not many. We pretend that we have rights and freedom and that our lives are lived how we choose. No, it’s not. What you do with your life has been chosen for you. You are doing exactly what the powerful choose for you to do, no more and no less. Step out of line and see how fast you find your ass handed to you. You don’t think that all of this surveillance is for your own good, do you? It is to keep tabs on you. You need a passport to go anywhere. You need an ID to show everybody. You need a number assigned to you. You have a FICO score. Your medical records are digital. That means that every government agency knows where you shop, what you drive, where you go, who you talk to, what your medical conditions are and how much money you make, where you spend it and on what. Does that sound like freedom to you? Are you marching against that? If so, why? What do you hope to accomplish? I’ll tell you what you are going to accomplish by marching. Not a damn thing. You are owned. We all are. This is all an illusion. We are in the matrix, but the matrix that we are in, there is no Oracle and no savior. You’re on your own, just as all the rest of us are. We are here until we’re dead. Accept it.

So, remember Dr. King today. Thank him for all his sacrifices because you are where you are today because of Dr. King and all the others who marched and protested to get you where you are. And where would that be? You’ve just finished college and started a job. Good! Now, pay back that student loan. You are flipping burgers and you are sick and tired of it. Too bad! What else are you going to do? You are filing endless forms in an office and thinking about a vacation you’ll probably never get to take because you’ve got mouths to feed. I’m sorry. Keep dreaming. Dream on, fellow matrix dwellers, dream on!

Oh and Je suis Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.! Je suis Charlie got pretend solidarity from the world’s leaders in France, but damn it if they even bothered to pretend solidarity with the murdered Nigerians or the murdered young Black men in America, murdered by racist ass cops, or the drone-struck and bombed in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, Pakistan, Ukraine, Gaza ……” Never forget, it’s white bodies that matter and Dr. King’s dream will never be realized because Dr. King could not say “Je suis white!”

….And Missouri Is In The Headlines, Again!

Another police-involved shooting death of black teen sparks tensions in St. Louis

Last night another young Black teenager, Antonio Martin, 18 was gunned down by a cop in Berkley, MO. It has been alleged that he pointed a gun at a cop. And although, the cop that shot and killed Antonio Martin had a body camera, it wasn’t on him. Why not? Nor was his police cruiser’s dashboard camera turned on. Why not? Was that not Barack Obama’s and Eric Holder’s solution to the killing of young Black men by white cops? It is SO working isn’t it? Well, isn’t it? Quite obviously, they can put the body camera on the cops, but they just can’t seem to get the cops to use them and if the cops have nothing to hide, why not turn the body camera and dashboard camera on? Eh? If I had not a goddamn thing to hide, I’d get to recording every motherfucking move I made. But you see, cops got everything to hide because they’re dirty. They’re on the take, BIG TIME! And they’re on some “Kill as many Black men as you can,” time. How else could they get away with all the shit that they do if it’s coming from their own goddamn body cams?

Is anybody so delusional that they actually think that all the money and drugs that cops confiscate from raids and stings actually end up in the evidence room? I know goodness goddamn well, that there ain’t a cop out there that’s pissing and moaning about their paltry salary because they get their hands on all that non-taxable money they steal from raids and arrests and stings. Oh, they got it SO good. Who wouldn’t want to be a cop? And it ain’t even like they got one of the most dangerous jobs in America. Being a cop didn’t even make the list. It is more dangerous for you to work in the construction field. Ask a cop to trade jobs with a window washer, he’d shoot you on the spot for conjuring up the image of losing out on all that extra money he gets from crime scenes. I remember reading an article about a cop stealing thousands of dollars from an accident victim. Seriously??! Yep, protect and serve is what they do, protect their private stash that they serve to themselves all the while screaming about how they’re the ‘good’ guys. Indeed, signs of that shit are all over the place. There are signs in Ferguson, MO, New York, NY, Cleveland, OH, Berkeley, MO, Beavercreek, OH, and the list goes on and on and on.

But wait! It gets better or worse depending on who you are. We all remember Michael Brown, right? Well, at a retirement party for a cop, they hired a singer and they all got to singing,

“Michael Brown learned a lesson about a messin’ with a badass policeman,” “Michael looked like some old Swiss cheese” … his brain “splattered on the floor.”

They’re ALL heart, aren’t they? But when somebody gets fed up and busts a cap all up in them, why it’s time to break out the violins and stop the protests of cops killing Black men for no apparent reason, other than the fact that it’s always been ‘open season’ on Black people.

Oh, but how I digress. Now, about this latest police killing of another Black man.

The Berkeley officer was responding to a call about a larceny when he encountered the two men in the parking lot. As the officer spoke with one of the men, the other walked several steps away and produced a weapon that he pointed at the officer, Belmar said.

At that point, the officer drew his weapon and stepped backward, firing three shots – one of which struck the suspect.

Now, what this man had to say was right on point.

“Mr. Martin either had a gun or didn’t, but by morning he will have morphed into a gun wielding ‘super negro’, firing from bushes with at least two different handguns with his DNA-less hands, displaying his “demon” strength, and “bulking up” before running towards armed police,” Sekou said. “What’s more, we’ll soon know if he ever smoked marijuana, got good grades at school and if he ever took a selfie with a bottle of liquor.”

There it is! Proof positive that there will be a report out about the criminal activities of the Black teenager that got himself murdered and voila, it’s right on time!

“Martin had a criminal record that included three assault charges and others for armed robbery, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon.”

“See, this Martin guy wasn’t no Sunday school teacher, let alone a preacher man. He was just a criminal! Case closed! Nothing to see here folks! No reason to protest, move it along! We’ve got some real hero cops to mourn! Clear the streets! And New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, don’t you dare start in on how you instruct your bi-racial son on how to behave when coming into contact with New York’s finest! We’re all the finest! That’s what you get for messing around with what should be ‘The Help’! Keep ‘em in their place and don’t give ’em no ideas!”

And tomorrow, we ‘celebrate’ Christmas and again, someone, ANYONE, tell me just what the hell is there to celebrate with nothing but killing, killing, killing and torturing going on? Huh? What’s that??!!! Yeah! That’s what I thought! Ain’t a goddamn thing to celebrate! If I had a goddamn Christmas tree up, it’d be in a million fucking pieces by now!

Now, read this shit!

“Connecticut trooper pleads guilty to stealing dying motorcycle crash victim’s jewelry, money

State trooper AJ Huntsman was accused of lifting more than $8,000 in cash and jewelry from a dying man at a motorcycle crash site in 2012. He later lied to supervisors and the dead man’s family about it, authorities said.

A crooked Connecticut cop caught by his dash cam stealing more than $8,000 in cash and jewelry off a mangled motorcycle crash victim.”

Now, how vile is that! Protect and Serve? Right?!!! The man was DYING and the state trooper was stealing from a DYING ACCIDENT VICTIM!!! This is why the cops that are outfitted with bodycams don’t turn them on. This one just forgot that his dashcam was on or who would have known about his crime? But they’re the GOOD guys, remember?! Yeah, fucking ‘good’ guys, my motherfucking ass!

Maybe In Another Life

The banshee screams in the dark of night.
So many souls fly towards the light.

It is a place where no human can go.
They’ll not have to reap what they did not sow.

The troubles of this world will be left behind.
Maybe in another life they will find,
the meaning to why they were ever here,
and why from their loved ones, they must disappear.

Only the lost and the lonely are welcome there,
where they will never carry more than they can bear.

Don’t Come Here With No Shit! I’m Not ‘The Help’ Or Your ‘Mammy’!

The silent protests speak
as lips are sealed with tape.
Hands reach ever skyward,
in search of the great escape.

Where is our savior today?
Is there a hero that stands for good?
Have we lost all faith and hope?
If there is something to be done, we should.

Must we forever protest in silence,
or pluck a hero from a film?
Someone save us from ourselves,
and from those that will become them.

Will the bad ever get what’s coming?
And of the damsels that do get saved,
why are they always white,
while we play the damsel’s maid.

Shall we put a mob cap on,
and pop our eyes and shriek,
and moan and croon over whites,
when our death is what they seek?

I am told that I am too harsh,
and judgmental in my own way.
They tell me I’m mean and nasty,
but I don’t shoot little kids at play.

Polite is what I’m not,
and never shall I be.
I live in a danger zone.
What the fuck do you expect from me?

If what I write you just don’t like,
then move the hell along,
but don’t come here with no shit,
when you are part of what is wrong.

What follows is for the piece of shit that typed a search for “how many nigers killed other nigers in 2014.”

So motherfucker, you want to know “how many nigers killed other nigers in 2014.” First of all you stupid fuck, you couldn’t even learn how to use spellcheck? But you want to know about ‘niger’s killing other ‘nigers’ because if it’s found that ‘nigers’ are killing other ‘nigers’ at a higher rate than at the rate that cops are killing ‘nigers’ then what’s the goddamn problem, eh? That about right, motherfucker?

Let me break this shit down for you, you little white prick! First and foremost, did ya look up that 83% of whites are murdered by other whites or is it not considered ‘murder’ or a crime when whites kill other whites. So, let’s not focus on the fact that whites are killing other whites; it’s all about ‘nigers’ killing other ‘nigers’.

Crime in Black communities all across this shithole called, America is fueled by systemic racism and poverty, a school-to-prison pipeline that makes it even easier for Black children to head straight from a classroom into a prison cell. “Go to jail. Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.” We don’t get to ‘buy up’ property, we WAS property and we still are. Don’t even fucking act like you don’t know the sordid ass history of this shithole. I’m not about to give yet another history lesson that got, conveniently, left out of the history books. But know this, you nasty white prick; here, whites don’t get a goddamn pass for being white assed and questioning some shit that should already be fucking known.

You fucking know why every goddamn body is screaming and yelling about crime in Black communities. But you ain’t got to worry about that see? ‘Cause the Blacks ain’t coming into your hood, shooting the fuck outta you. They’re shooting each other, just as whites are busy shooting and murdering other whites. Crime, in the form of murder ain’t limited to Black people and what’s going down in Black communities all across this shithole ain’t a concern of yours. You’re on some shit about police murdering Black people like they’re hunting and killing game and if Black people are murdering each other, what’s the big goddamn deal?

The deal is that Black people have been on lockdown from the word ‘go’ in this shithole. Not a goddamn thing has changed. Black people start out at a disadvantage because how the hell can an entire group of people that came from slaves own a goddamn thing to begin with? We can’t even fucking start from scratch. We’ve got to scratch and claw our way out from underneath the boot of some foul ass shit like you. And you want to search about “how many nigers killed other nigers in 2014???” It would serve your white ass better to search for how many crackers have killed other crackers in YOUR motherfucking hood! Then motherfucker, lock and load ‘cause your white ‘homies’ might be aiming for your skank ass next!

And one last thing, here’s the deal; try educating yourself, you worthless punk ass bitch! Never fucking think that I’m a goddamn ‘mammy’ or the motherfucking ‘Help’! Now, kiss my ass, but only from a goddamn distance!

This here ends the goddamn Sunday sermon! Afuckingmen!

http://www.freep.com/story/opinion/contributors/2014/12/01/black-crime-leonard-pitts-ferguson-guiliani/19742677/

Don’t it just fucking always ‘pay’ to be nice??!!! Yeah! Like that shit’s gonna keep happening all up in here! Fucking deal with this shit like I do or fucking leave it the hell alone. You got a choice, I SO fucking don’t!

The Flag Has Been Replaced!

The flag has been replaced,

and freedom has been displaced,

to a cold and lonely grave,

along with another slave.

The flag’s new color scheme,

does not share in Dr. King’s dream,

that he dreamt in days long gone,

when he marched for a brighter dawn,

and for our basic human rights,

rights enjoyed by all the whites.

The flag is black and blue,

and red is its color too.

It stands for all Black men,

confined in the new slave pen.

Red is the color they bleed,

because of supremacy’s creed.

Blue is the color of woe,

it’s long been the Black man’s foe.

Wherever there’s a cop in blue,

you WILL bid a Black man, “Adieu!”

Yes Black is under attack,

so please watch each other’s back.

They know we have no place to go,

because they stole us so long ago!

The Amerikkkan flag don’t mean shit to me because it was never meant FOR me. So, I’ll never salute it or claim to fight for it! To hell with it and fuck it!

Fuck The Fake Media!

Fuck the fake media and fuck their lies.
They’ve an agenda that’s against our very lives.

Their fake ass shit is smoke and mirrors.
They hide the true faces of our killers.

We’re to forget about the war we fight in Syria,
and not think about the shit we stirred in Libya.

Have you forgotten the invasion of Iraq?
Why isn’t the media focusing on that?

They distract us with their instigating shit,
and have us listen to a lie that Holder spit!

We all know that Obama is a puppet.
And Henson’s got himself another Muppet.

Obama never stood for hope and change,
and Muppet Holder loves the New York Stock Exchange.

Now let’s all turn our backs on CNN.
They’re owned by the shadow bogeymen.

When we fight amongst ourselves, it’s what they want,
and that is why they make up shit to taunt,
the people of all races into hate.
Don’t listen and do not take the bait.

If we all march together and as one,
and maintain the momentum, they will run.

Their aim is to divide us into groups.
If we fall for that shit, then we are dupes.

Never trust the media; they are whores,
for the elites that will destroy us with their wars.

The fake ass mainstream media is designed to distract, divide and conquer us. If we are fighting each other, the oligarchy win and they are who the media whores whore themselves out for. If we can learn to come together to fight against those who are behind the scenes of this shit stirring, they lose and that is why they have upped the ante, so to speak. It’s no holds barred. Wake up! Fight, but let’s not fight each other. We need each other and that IS the truth.
