pigs

i don't even really have the right words for the outcome of the sean bell case or his tragic death.

it's one of them things ... you either believe some cops are racist or you don't. you either know they dirty or you don't.

you can believe in your fairytales and nothing i write here can change your mind.

or you can believe the truth. the truth will stand.

when me and you are dead and buried the dna evidence might reveal the truth. or two generations from now we might find a cop's secret diary. or five generations from now we might actually clean up the police and the justice system and admit that many cops have been dirty.

yeah, maybe. and maybe barack obama will be president. maybe.

but for now ... justice and truth ... are as hard to find as a boyfriend.

and they wonder why WE bitter? and they wonder why we stopped snitching? and they wonder why we act like we can't get a fair shake in america? and they wonder why we hate cops? and they wonder why we hate america?

well, i don't hate america (anymore) cuz i won't let her take my soul the way she has with countless others (including cops).

but this ... this sean bell verdict ... this ... is one reason why.
