Sometimes I wonder do I think to much, Nah Anyway today and yesterday. I have been on the militant (hardcore) for awhile however I have calmed down some, as I know that there is a purpose for all things. I may not know what it was, but rest assured there is a purpose for all things. So now to the point, as I cruise and walk in our communities (black) I see constant police activity. 2, 3, 4 cars in a matter of 2 blocks. Always in the community, well I am somewhat of a realist. and our communities are high crime areas to a degree. But have ya noticed, the police do not prevent crime. there is no reduction in drug sales robberies, shootings etc. so whats the point of seeing them so much, why are we satuated with their presence. It's not like they come when you call, trust me I know call 911 see if they come at all, this I know from experience not hear say. I several occasions. so whats the point. Intimidation?, Fear? fear of what fear of commiting a crime I really think not. Bullying is more like what they do. Now go to a different community, (ie white) you will not see the same satuation as you do in ours, why don't they have crime of course they do they have burgularies, domestic disputes etc. but why not the intense patrolling? kinda makes you wonder. However again my point is not that we don't have crime. my point is they are not a deterrent or remedy to crime. crime continues. We have police cameras on corners still buisness as usual, so whats up.
Ok second thought. To al my American Indian Brothers and Sisters I salute you. I know we black folk have went through some stuff (horrendous) but so have you. I believe we are kindred in spirit if not more. I cannot watch documetaries as the west talks about how the American Indian was reated without being moved. I watched a movie tonight about Geronimo, all I can say is wow, wow at the greed and gaul of the new european govt. and wow at the things you have suffered. knowing that everywhere the oyinbo go they mess up or ruin, why I don't have the knowledge yet to understan, also I do not yet have the understanding of why they are allowed to continue in what they do. However I do know that as is said payday is coming afterwhile
Peace, Love, & Much Respect
