Looters Is Such a Judgmental Term

By Elton Camp Oh my, supplies are running low On another “shopping” trip they go Give the front windows a smash Then it’s snatch, grab and dash The store owner’s a man they know It’s a place where they regularly go His means of living to destroy They act like they much enjoy Employee jobs may well disappear The store won’t reopen, they hear Yet, they’re doing what they should Destroying their own neighborhood Getting due revenge on a rogue cop To unjustified violence, putting a stop This is the very way to do it So they will hop right to it Who dares to call it greed Just to take what they need Thus, these “undocumented shoppers” Serve warning to those racist coppers
