For A.P.---

 

 

excuse me while I brandish

my cell phone and shoot

pictures of law enforcement

 

it is certainly loaded

and I can feel the bullets

shooting film

 

let me help this woman to her feet

Now if that is common courtesy

called terrorism, then fine

 

I am a terrorist

I carry my second ammendment

in my holster

 

a love for my fellow man

in my heart

and a final prayer on my lips.

Some cops and the like were born dangerous, others were borderline until they got the clothing and the power. I have been harassed, I have been arrested, I have suffered their abuse. With absolutely no humor intended, I can say I have never, never in 60 years, met a cop I remotely liked or respected. I was once a lab courier for a public hospital and I ran into cops constantly, on the roads, in parking lots, but most importantly in coffee shops where I could clearly hear their arrogant, mean-minded conversations. They would openly speak of wishing to do violence to people arrested. They really are swine.

No one should have to deal with that kind of treatment, my friend. To be afraid to exist for fear of constant harrassment...
They will get their just desserts one day.

Why they had to shoot him at all is beyond me. Why ten times is a mystery no one can explain. Where does ICE get these guys?

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Just a bit of Overkill!

There indeed seems to be danger in just protesting these days. The division we see is getting worse and it's spreading. Something needs to be done.

Also, being a journalist.

Don Lemon and others, yes, I saw that. Mid-term elections will be telling.

Maybe, your words are an echo of his thoughts that day... none of us truly know... but, both sides are playing a stupid game in their minds - no accountability, all are "invincible", but the guns have bullets not pepperballs. We have become angered at our own police for years now... and people got hurt. And the same people are out and about... doing the s**t to other people that they have been told to do...taught to do - until they ARE convinced - "The Feds have no power and aren't real police" - and also told they can't be hurt nor can they be held accountable for their actions. But they ARE police with their own brand of power (they don't have the states' rules) and aren't using non-lethal state riot munitions... and people get hurt.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Yes, they do have real bullets....and people are getting hurt physically, mentally and emotionally...and the combination is making people real dead.
Thanks for your words, Chris.
