Hand in Hand, Arms in Arm


But I do recall when my unarmed self,
flying solo, was campaigning for Obama
in 2008 and two ignorant local coppers
pulled their handguns on me in a feat
of intimidation and insanity.

As fate would have it, both those
inbred bastards are in the ground now
after less-than-stellar final days.

Sometimes shit does come back
around, after all, eh?

Keep firearms away from the
matter of protest and campaigns.

It's not a coincidence that the
people with the wrong party politics also
have the presumption to use physical
violence and intimidation to try and foist
their crazy views on others.

The New Pendulum Swing

 
"Pretty pleases" and well-written speeches aren't
going to change jack in this world where greed and
business and money and power rule.

There is no moral compass to appeal to within
the hearts of the governing 1-to-2%.


There is no equality within the courts; justice and
public opinion are for sale to the highest bidder.

We the impoverished or powerless have no standing;
the corporations and the elite own the judges, the
lawyers, the courts, the police, the media,
the military, the money.


This is war.
There is only survive or fail, live or die.

Destroying what they own is the only thing that
reaches them...the one thing that they understand.


Violent take-down of the Powers-That-Be is the
only recourse remaining.

Can we mobilize and commit before it's too late?
