Capitalism and Black Violence

The only way to end both cop-on-black crime and black-on-black crime is to put a complete end to capitalism. Capitalism (that dog-eat-dog/lion-eat-gazelle system) ensures that there will always be the impoverished poor among us (as they have their ideal rate of unemployment, enforcing slums in the midst of mansions). The poor, by default, will be the black folk in America - simply because when our ancestors came out of slavery, most of them walked out empty handed - perpetuating poverty generation after generation (due to lack of quality education, skill, and money - and not receiving enough help from the government that so graciously 'set us free').

The only answer is justice. Justice will end police brutality and it will end black crime. Justice can immediately come by spending a few less billion on violent wars and more on correcting the morale of people (through government-sponsored higher education and by providing money and well-kept/structured homes) and by fixing the infrastructures of other nations devastated by the violence and oppression caused by the US government (both present and past). Justice will only be long-lasting when we have democracy in the workplace, so that no one will acquire huge excesses of money (making millions of dollars each and every year). Such wealth is unnecessary and has damaged both the lives and minds of many black people in America.

To those in power: Make right what was made wrong so long ago! If you want to do good, get to the root of the problem. Stop throwing black men in jail to spare your fat wallet. Stop protecting wealth in the hands of the few - it is uncalled for and does far more harm than good. You will see this in a short while when you experience a debilitating crash and fall from which you cannot lift yourself. You will be hurled head-long, and there will be no one strong enough to help you back on your feet. Stop the bullshit and stop the lies. Tell the truth to yourselves.
