7.7.16



another black man lynched by a bullet

shot to death by a cop

absolved  telling his superiors I feared for my life  his crime Whitewashed

the subtext: his life is worth more than the citizens hes paid to protect and serve


he is part of an Occupying Force bristling with military armament

bearing stars boasting a license to kill

to kill if you do not do exactly what they tell you to do
what they Command you do
like fresh-minted Mosess down from Mount Cyanide(Sinai)   


power corrupts – absolute power corrupts absolutely
if you do not do exactly as they say
                             Exactly!


otherwise  you challenge their authority  thoroughly brainwashed they cannot suffer any challenge or breach                                                       
either misconstrued  
because either demeans their authority

your willfulness implies that they do not have complete control of the situation

everything isnt stuffed into a box of their making

they cannot suffer any loose-ends

they have to be cut away
eliminated
          Exactly! 
 

your abject submission is demanded


that is the only Right you have



(therefore how can one not wonder if a Police State doesnt already exist in our Exceptional Indispensable Nation waiting to break out fully emerge on the order of a fascist or authoritarian leader)

Jon Dalberg-Acton:  “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority; still more when you superadd the tendency of the certainty of corruption by authority.”
