Itโ€™s the cops and guards inciting the violence and rioting and the hose meant to hold the constitution are in fact now cruel and dangerous. Heady with power. Weโ€™re watching the noose tightening around you and itโ€™s surreal. Anyone who is paying attention can see the signs of dictatorship. Those of you who think itโ€™ll never be your turn, learn from history. The writing is on the wall; LA is just the testing ground. Listen to wiser folks than me and please donโ€™t wait until whatโ€™s coming for your safety, peace and freedom actually arrives nationwide.
