Abide


They cannot silence the voice of many. Nor will we sit back and abide and watch the killings of any. Should we be afraid or should we speak or as Patrick Henry Said "give me death or give me liberty ". We will not sit back and watch the cops abuse a nation so here is my devoted act and proclamation. We will be heard because words have a deeper connotation then rage, they can try and terrorize us with their guns and AKs. Abhorrent acts causing mothers to grieve for their only son has been shot down by the police. Our legal system has left havoc and dismay, but the cowardly acts of some police officers silencing us from words we want to say. They may jail us and kick us and brutalize thy, but they haven't done any worse than kill and get away from a plead. Evidence can be at the world’s hands and the taunting words of the dead cannot ever be said. So this is my affidavit to you be the voice to make the ascendancy lose!
