Reasoning with Madness
"This is a barbaric yawp, and it will be sounded over the roofs of the world."
-Walt Whitman

And those citizens were primarily black. It has been clear since well before the election that this monster has been racist to the core. Now he is acting on his racism.
This is not Iran. This is not Colombia. This is America. I fully understand the rage of wanting to burn this motherfucker to the ground. I really do. So many of us have been abandoned, hurt, killed and ruined by the corruption, unbridled hate and staggering injustices of the motherfuckers in power. And just in the last couple months alone, we've watched the brutal death count of a pandemic out of control, many of us and our own families and friends killed. On top of that the loss of so many jobs, while the rich STILL get richer! The ugly darkness that has taken over our lives moving at lightning speed, when all of a sudden, the last straw of watching ANOTHER black man murdered by a cop in broad daylight on camera as he begged for his mother, his life and pissed himself before his life slipped away. I am sickened. I am crippled with rage. I get the fury. I want to scream and break everything too. I've had enough of all this bullshit. It is everything in my power not to go join the people in the streets and burn it all to the ground. But I must remember this will not fix what's wrong. Violence begets violence. It is not the means to peace. And I know from experience, change comes from within. Change comes from organizing and unifying. There is a glimmer of hope that some are embracing this mindset, this approach, this goal. To those people, I salute you and I stand with you and as I have always done, I will do my part to create that change we so badly need now. For those of you reading these words, especially those of you who are praising the violence, I simply ask you to think about what comes next. It's not what you destroy that defines you, it's what you create. And finally, if you're willing to set shit on fire, I hope you are willing to take a few minutes to vote. The fastest way to destroy this hateful mob boss wannabe dictator motherfucker in the White House is to fire his ass. Please for the love of God. VOTE THIS MOTHERFUCKER OUT IN NOVEMBER.
