Cool R.A.T.M quote from concert

So how many people joined us outside the democratic national convention?
I never seen so many fuckinÍ cops in my life.
ItÍs like everybody knows that everyone went out there.
Only thing we were out there to do was to express how much we hate both the Democrats and the Republicans cos they sold this fuckinÍ country out. And by expressin our right to resist what do they do? They open fire on the crowd. I donÍt care what Fucking television stations said that violence was caused by people at the concert, those motherfuckers unloaded on this crowd. And I think its ridiculous considering, you know, none of us had rubber bulletsƒ none of us had m-16Ís, none of us had billy clubs, none of us had face shields all we had was our fists, our voices, our microphones, our guitars, our drums, our timbales and whatnot.
And any time we get beaten in the sreets for protestinÍ, we take it to the court system, and the court system donÍt wanna hear it. Look at what happened to Amidale Dialo in New York. They shot that brother 41 times and let all four officers go. Its time for some new type of action in this countryƒ This song is called, Killing in the Nameƒ

Yea, that story about Amadou Diallo just shows how fucked the world has become. Shot 19 times, 41 fires, for pulling out his wallet.. Then to justify there murder, interrogating all his friends.. searching his apartment.. NOTHING on him. That story was crazy.

 

Thats right. Man that sucks
