A Short Poem on Long term Issues



Outbreak. Uprising. Overcoming?

Our call.

Elites can't and won't save the day.

Will we?

Who Will Cops Call for Help?

Image
It's time to get real about police reform. Despite being an old school safety advocate, officers and police executives deserve my sympathy for enduring perpetual portrayals as a 21st century Waffen SS, whose detectives are a Gestapo upgrade, none of whom violent anti law enforcement protestors trust or respect. Policing as an institution is bending over backward to appease zealots who hate them and it's a sad sight. That said, I must ask, who will cops call for help after a high profile shooting or other use of force upon a Black man- violent anti law enforcement protesters or the law abiding public? If ever there was a moment for police to call upon supportive stakeholders, it is now! After calls are made to lawyers, union reps, clergy and family members, not getting word to police supporters is a major error. In cities under elite liberal "leadership," officers and police executives are politically pressured into catering to police and prison aboliti...

My Kind of Black Nationalism

Image
My kind of Black nationalism isn't the variety where I'm chasing random White people down the street because they're White.  As a Black Nationalist Conservative, I work with like minds of all colors while also building up institutions the community should control. I'm also not advocating repatriation to another country, within or outside the current United States. If that ever becomes doable, more power to those taking that option. Clearly there's no one way out of the mess we're in. I am advocating control of community institutions and politics currently under elite liberals manicured thumbs. Their niche market is profiteering off of Black misery. Any inquiries about why I'm not challenging elite conservative control over Black community institutions and politics is met with this response: there is none. Unlike elite liberals, elite conservatives haven't embedded themselves within Black infrastructure. Theirs is a different, distant dynam...

Gun Rights aren't White Rights.

Image
Let me cut to the chase, gun rights aren't White rights! Many in the Black community think Second Amendment advocacy is only for White conservatives. These same Black critics often own firearms themselves and seem unaware of this direct contradiction. My grassroots security consulting began in midtown Savannah, GA., during the Crack Cocaine Era, where self defense concerns were challenged by a new, very violent set of circumstances. Black elected officials preaching gun control for law abiding citizens overlook the fact law abiding citizens aren't making inner cities unsafe. A logical policy direction would be harsher penalties for gun crime and enhancing self defense statutes. It appears politicians for Black areas prioritize pleasing distant elite liberals more than nearby  victims they represent. I recently read a friend's Facebook post about gun rights issues in my home town. Savannah's mayor is a long standing gun control proponent, despite previously se...
