Let Us Legislate For Justice-



You cannot make this stuff up-and Insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting the circumstances to change and they will not. It was only in 1991, when Rodney King was beat relentlessly by uniform Policemen and the entire beating was recorded and broadcast on every media outlet-and still these men walked-Travon Martin’s killer was told by the Police to abort his trailing of the “suspect” and wait for the professionals to intercede and he did not-shot and killed the young brother and was set free of all charges-and now Brother Michael Jones, he is actually the sixteenth young black man killed by uniform police, just since Trayvon- http://hiphopandpolitics.com/2012/04/06/29-black-people-have-been-killed-by-policesecurity-since-jan-2012-16-since-trayvon/ without cause (because we will never know their stories). We were not given the opportunity to hear from this brother (Mike Brown) about what happened. We are not allowed to understand his point of view and weigh the options based on Due Process. His parents were not given the courtesy of visiting him in jail or the hospital but instead the morgue. A Jury of his peers were not called by legal document to bear witness of all the pertinent testimony and using the law predicate his guilt or innocence.


Our community has suffered for decades from Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a type of anxiety disorder. It can occur after you have gone through an extreme emotional trauma that involved the threat of injury or death-Just like in Slavery times when a person tried to extract themselves from the strongholds of the oppressor and was returned. There was a way of punishment that was applied that didn’t even involve touching the other enslaved persons. That tool is still being used today they are leaving bodies lying in wait, for all to see and grieve and build hatred because of, their actions. They are posturing by taking huge amount of time to prepare the community for violence that they would be responsible for causing. This is being done on the backs of people who have lived and died in those very same communities.



Predominantly black neighborhood being patrolled by those who could care less about the neighborhood or the people living in it. There was a word used when this was done back in slavery times and that word was “overseer”. Their job was to make certain the workers were productive and profits were maximized. Much like now-reality is we are in tough times and they require tough decisions-We need legislation put into place to curtail this mentality and these types of actions- When a black man dies, it isn’t only him that suffers, it is a generation that suffers. Emmitt Tills mother did not have another son to replace the one that was taken from her in 1955. Trayvon Martins parents will never have another Trayvon and Michael Browns parents will not ever have another Michael Brown or his children to carry the Brown name forward. Black men are systematically being discarded at the whim of its oppressors and this has to cease for the future of our race. We have no downtime and every issue is important. Let’s not get caught sleeping ever again. This struggle is real. And the people are too!

Same Old Con Artist/Same Old Conclusions





Same Old Con Artist/Same Old Conclusions

Now that the elections are over and it looks like the smoke has cleared, nothing could be further from the truth. Those people who decided that this election was no big deal and therefore did not vote on 11/4/14, only perpetuated the general consensus that there was nothing more to fight for. From the very beginning there were those in the Republican Party that never had any intentions of doing anything that would forward our nation. McConnell is directly quoted saying "The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president"  There was never any thought of what was best for this country. In these most difficult economic times, when we the people should be able to depend on our issues being working on and possibly resolved by congress, they have been on a personal vindictive manhunt for our President. He (McConnell) also stated at that same time “Republicans had a plan to take back the government” Take back the government from who is the question. Thanks to us… (The people) they have been successful in their plight. In 2010 they won back the House, in 2014 they were able to win back the Senate and in their final blow they have 2016 in focus to win back the White House. Those in the positions that were effective used one of the oldest tricks in the book, and why change any of the tricks if they still work. The crux of the plan is the same routine used by terrorist around the world, divide and conquer. Once the Republicans took the legislative process and held it hostage, they refused to pass anything. Whether that thing was helpful to the people (they were sent to represent) such as health care, minimum wage increases, economic developments, infrastructure improvements or foreign policy,nothing ever had a chance of resolution. 


Those Republicans in the Senate used obstruction tactics in regards to legislation no matter what the issue or solution was and stayed focused on causing Americans to become frustrated and dissatisfied with government. This allowed them to get the constant word out that the government is broken and they are the only ones to “fix” it, but only if they were given control of the Senate. These types of bullying tactics have been running prevalent since the inception of the United States. Instead of representing the people who sent them to Congress and to the House of Representatives they became a gang within a party, against the people. They said that the British colonials were wrong, but they adapted their policies and then broke away and declared its independence against them. They said that the Indians land was useless, but then they took it over by force, pillaged its resources and parceled it out among themselves. They said that African Americans were whole people but were torn as to whether or not to count them in the constitution. Counting them as whole person would mean that the state that had the most enslaved people would therefor have more representation in how the government was run. Counting them as less would mean they were alive but not dealt with except by those who owned them. Either way, regardless of how many, it was impossible to have so many enslaved humans without representation but yet..it occurred (and still does) At the time enslaved people made up about 1/5th of the entire population. During this time in 12 of the first 16 presidential elections, a Southern Slave owner was elected. Fast forward to 2014 and they are still at it-Never did Republicans admit that they were the reason Washington was “broken.” Instead, they blamed the people who were trying to get things done. Republicans blamed Sen. Harry Reid and President Obama. 





The GOP ran a con on the American people. They created the problem then promised to solve it. Unfortunately, this scam proved true once again, Republicans are now two-thirds of the way towards their focused goal of taking the government back. Back to the ways of low income being the only income, back to the ways of lobbying for profit and kickbacks for services that should be afforded every American. They were the ones who created the gridlock in Washington and of course can be the only ones to lift that gridlock as well. Now the Democrats have the reverse position of playing defense. They can now point out the non-action from the Republicans. They can now watch and wait as those who are in positions of authority today, may not be come 2016. They won’t have President Obama to blame anymore. They will only have themselves and the Hoods they hang on the door as they close their offices and reflect on how history will judge them and their actions during this momentous period of time. Given these factors, it will surprise no one if the Senate confidence men and women meet their 2016 demise at the hands of their own con.
