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
