Hooligans

Armed to kill with their guns and batons, How can we defend ourselves against them, Hooligans in uniforms with weapons, Police preaching peace and protection, Yet proving themselves a constant contradiction, As they beat up defenseless innocence, And are feared by the mayority of the nation. Who protects the people from the police? Why are violent thugs given authority? We give them the power, we let them be, Turn a blind eye when your friend leaves the cells, Battered, bruised, black and blue, No questioning the law, too scared to sue, There would be less danger on the streets, If we unarmed the police, If we took back our own authority, of our lives, Realise that its our choice, To continue believing the hype, Why should we live in fear and lose our independence? I refuse to abide when I dont agree, I refuse to conform, How can it be a crime to disobey, This means that we are slaves? Freewill is inexistent nowadays, I wouldnt want to bring a child to this world, Where infants are anulled to become consumers, Slaves who keep the cog turning... Its sad, but we are born into a prison.

Who protects the police? Not the judiciary! Our streets are filled with felons with dozens of convictions yet consistently set free within hours of being arrested! Our government is controlled by old men who could care less about the wants and needs of young people! Aloha!

Like the mafia, they have a strict code to deal with those who do not support one another! Aloha!

It's a shame that the coppers are not convicted for the countless times they have committed crimes. Police brutality, abuse of authority, torture, rapes, murder, corruption. Crimes that are being commited by the cops constantly. Yet they are not convicted because they have a uniform and it's part of their job to push fear into the community. They are psychopaths on a.power rush, who hurt people for fun. I've seen it many a times and I've been the victim of police torture. They have no souls ...no conscience ...they don't feel empathy. They are sadists who enjoy having the power to harm others and be above the law. They do whatever they want and never get convicted because a coppers word is more true than a victims video. recordings.of them beating an innocent person..they enforce a law that they don't follow themselves. They have no law .
