The
Happening
Let
me tell you a story that happens
quite frequently on the streets of America.
A black police officer murders a white
teenager for no reason, emptying almost
a full pistol clip into the kid even as
he stood
with his
hands up,
and then leaves the body to lay
in
the street
in a pool of blood for
four hours.
There is no
call for an ambulance nor questioning of
witnesses. The shooting isn't reported
to headquarters.
When the majority-white community shows
complete disinterest in the slaying
a massive contingent of militarized, black
police
officers will arrive,
complete
with armored
vehicles, and begin terrorizing
the community with sniper rifles,
tear gas and rubber bullets.
Roving bands of heavily-armed white men
and women will begin to appear, joined
by similarly-equipped groups of African-Americans.
The two groups will join peacefully together
and proceed to employ their Second Amendment
rights to defy the
authority of the police
with
no fear
for their own safety.
The media, of course, is given unfettered
access to every facet of the story, their
journalistic freedoms never,
ever compromised by the police.
Never, ever.
For the sake of transparency the identity
of the officer who shot the white
kid
is
made
public as soon as possible, at which point
the enforcement
community will join as one and begin publicly
castigating the officer, demanding
his removal from
his
position of public service.
Most importantly, the police department
will take special care to protect the
identity and reputation of the dead child
before a complete police
report is issued.
Yup, every day.
It's good to be an American.
