Behind
those Smiling faces, ….no conscience. Somebody, somebody
please go get The Undisputed Truths 45’ ”Smiling Faces”
and play it loud, and play it a few times - it’s more than
apropos when discussing the historically dysfunctional relationship
between the police and Black Americans.
Mr.
Floyd’s blood-curdling cries for them to stop - fell upon deaf
ears. And as I listened to Chauvin’s lawyers offer-up what can
only be deemed ridiculous and trifling excuses, i.e., the gathering
crowd/mob scared the arresting police, and Floyd was “high”
and in horrible physical shape, so he wasn’t murdered... he
simply picked an “odd” and inconvenient time to die - it
became clear that they too had no shame, none, none at all. It became
clear nor does the dozen deep legal team with over a million dollars
at their disposal to defend Chauvin has a soul. Please understand
this caveman masquerading as a policeman is regarded by, stay with me
here, millions of White Americans as a hero, as a Great White Hope, a
defender of and or white America - front line warrior trying to
maintain that thin line between the unwashed little dirty people like
you and me, and pristine victimized mainstream White America.
A
hero, like the men who murdered Emmett Till, like the men who bombed
the Birmingham Baptist Church in 1960 - killing 4 little girls, like
1970’s subway Vigilante Bernhard Goetz, or like Waco Texas
Wack-o cult leader David Koresh. Like Oklahoma City Bomber Timothy
Mcvey, like the LA Cops who beat Rodney King half to death, like
Treyvon Martin’s killer, George Zimmerman, Charleston killer
Dylann Roof and the Kenosha killer Kyle Rittenhouse...each and
everyone, all of them red-blooded all-American heroes... in the eyes
and hearts of millions of WASP Americans.
Am
I lying?
Yes,
this murder underlines my relentless contention: millions upon
millions of White Americans, from all walks of life sadly struggle
with the noble, yet to them unbelievable idea Black people are human,
as human as they are. And, if they do begrudgingly accept “yes”
we are human, well then, they wrestle with the idea we are civilized
and not savages barely comfortable in shoes. Yeah, that’s the
question I believe they see themselves burden with,
The
White man’s burden - White supremacy masked as White
supremacy...
As this judicial circus continues it will
become crystal clear that
too many White
Americans will jump-in-line supporting some contrived and pathetic
company line that will attempt to rationalize, minimize and normalize
via some quasi-intellectual gibberish the tortuous murder caught on
video. May I say, this is all-so typical, historical, and “White”
of White folks to adopt the “see/hear/speak no evil or ill”
against any White man, especially if he’s obviously and
undeniably the murderer of a Black man.
No America, no
world...don’t believe you’re lying eyes and ears, no
instead believe these transparent, hollow and shallow White folks.
Are you serious? Are you serious?! Are you serious?!
I
flipped to FOX News (White supremacist propaganda) on day one and
two... they weren’t even covering the trail.
Let
me be both sharp and blunt: If George Floyd had been White...good
lord, and if Chauvin were Black… this would not even be a
“case,” no debate, about it. However, since Floyd was
Black and Chauvin is White, well, we have a complicated situation.
No, we don’t. This case is as it appears - it was stone-cold,
ice-cold Vulcan-like cold - mean, cruel, heartless, and merciless
murder o a handcuffed man. The translation was an execution in the
identical vein as a 1947 lynching of a Black man in Mississippi by a
lynch mob of back-alley “deputized” white vigilantes or
Klansmen.
Hear me: The White male power-structure
wants to put Black people not simply back in the segregated hood,
they don’t want to resurrect Sundown Laws, no they want us back
in chains, back on plantations… and millions of them have no
shame about that medieval desire, none, none at all.
Just
as Darrick Chauvin is being ridiculously portrayed as a victim, at
the mercy of a giant half-mad Black...animal, White America’s
delusional attempts to paint themselves as victims…. How can
this be? All this does is: it allows, gives them phony permission to
over-react, to play the victim and thus kill George Floyd, kill
Democracy in America by eradicating voting rights and restore White
supremacy.
Someone
enlighten me - when, over the last 400 years of American history have
white men not been oppressive, exploitative, aggressive, and hostile?
When have they not been racist, sexist, elitist supremacists? When?
Never! Why? Because they are those who have no shame, none, none at
all.
The
concept of humiliation, mortification, embarrassment, guilt, remorse,
contrition, compunction - terms and words not recognized across
Trump’s America.
