rampant white rage claims casualties like a plague
school shootings display the worst of our sociocultural disarray
young miscreants armed to the teeth haunt their schools and haunt the streets
mothers and father are left in disbelief and are caught in toxic webs of grief
imagining comprehensive solutions requires vision and insight
we must transform our society to eradicate this rancid blight
the munition and ammunition arming the guardians of this oppressive system
will resist ever being conquered by our nascent armies of liberation
we must build our battalions of resistance to break through this matrix of cognitive dissonance
the statistics surrounding our national obsession with the right to weaponry are damning of any positive social good for our nation’s citizens
the most likely outcome of one’s possession of a firearm is that the owner takes his own life or that a child does the same
to break the cycles of senseless violence we need transformative karma—we need to transcend the endless cycles of blame, guilt, and shame
oppressed and exploited communities must have means of resisting their condition
police must be disarmed and must be thoroughly reconditioned
we need to end our cultural obsession with the right to ammunition
as if owning guns protects us from the brutality of this system
we must rise for liberation through a thoroughgoing revolution
building power to transcend capitalism’s ideological pollution
the omnipresent slaves to white supremacy are packing assault rifles to defend their place
drunk on tidal waves of privilege they insist that their caucasian tribe is the master race
little do they realize that they are mindless tools for those with real wealth
the oligarchs who rule our polity care for nothing but capital invested in enriching themselves
our ammunition is our social power: the fact that we produce what makes them rich
we must build an insurgency in this pivotal hour: transforming psychosocial angst into the ideological armor that will allow our tribe to resist
