So, as I suspected… Mayor Bowser doesn’t really give a rat’s ass about the MPDC terrorizing and murdering Black citizens of DC, or about protesters being tear-gassed and run off the street so Trump can do his foto op at St. John’s Church, or our city being invaded by the goddamn 82nd Airborne — she just wanted to own Trump and nab some TV time.

Not even a week after painting “Black Lives Matter” in huge-ass letters taking up two blocks of 16th Street between K Street and Lafayette Park, she was browbeating the city council to “slow down” on police “reform” (clipping from Washington Post, June 11 2020).

New York City mayor De Blasio, not to be outdone, decided to name one street in each borough “Black Lives Matter Street” — after allowing the NYPD to also terrorize, beat, torture and murder New Yorkers for the better part of a week.

Still, there was no topping Bowser. All De Blasio did was put up a bunch of crummy street signs; Bowser’s hypocrisy is visible from orbit.

Has anyone else here noticed that almost all the major cities where horrific police atrocities are taking place are run by Democratic Party mayors?

Mind you, this is also the same party whose presumptive nominee wrote the draconian 1994 Crime Bill which imprisoned a generation of black youth, militarized the police, and which is the main reason this country is where it is today?

And I’m also still waiting for Noam Chomsky to take another whack at convincing me that I should “swallow hard” and support Joe Biden. Well, c’mon, bring it, ya doddering old fossil, ‘cos I’m standing here, man.

Bringing up the coffee and morning paper last Sunday morning, I caught about 15 seconds of MSNBC on the bedroom TV. Some “contributing analyst” on the morning show was discussing the nationwide uprising against police terrorism and yammering about how we needed to unite “street politics” with electoral politics — which made me want to bring up my coffee again, if you know what I mean.

Cripes, what a stupid twunt. Didn’t she realize that the reason we’re in the streets right now is because electoral politics is a failure? I and millions of others in this country have realized that electoralism is a big, hot sloppy bucket of fail, and that it’s time to get our yellow vests on and vote in the streets.

Never mind how many times I’ve heard rag-chewing Liberal talking heads on cable TV news flapping their cakeholes about “peaceful” protest — jeezus, I could play a drinking game with the number of times I’ve heard some knob on TV talking about being “peaceful”. F’crissake, man — I can’t think of a single time in my life when any meaningful change was brought about by people being “peaceful”. Hell, the State and Capital aren’t being peaceful right now; why should the People feel obligated to be peaceful? Screw “peaceful”.

It wasn’t just one cop who murdered George Floyd; it was America — the same America whose knee is crushing the throat of Iran, Venezuela, and dozens of other nations around the world.
