THE BIG PAYBACK

THE BIG PAYBACK ! Our federal tax dollars from the abortive "War on Drugs,"from the 1980s forward, which supplemented those from the Omnibus Crime Bill of 1968, have brought this murderous chaos about in Ferguson, Missouri, and elsewhere. Those funds helped to further political efforts to militarize, to deputize, and to desensitize the national law enforcement regime into the vast and venal monstrosity it has developed into since its receipt of those funds to catch "the bad guys!" -- usually black guys! So, those federal taxpayer funds to local and state police must be cut off to rein-in this oppressive apparatus, that is decimating black communities and projecting America's image abroad as the racist and hypocritical police state, which it now is! We routinely seize, forfeit, impound, freeze, and garnish the funds of private persons, charities, companies, and governments, when it suits our national interests. Well, ending police brutality against black Americans certainly suits our national interests, because, not to do so, threatens our national and international interests! The cutting off the hundreds of billions of federal tax dollars to local and state police departments will bring about immediate reform and end brutishness. It will thrust a stake into Dracula's heart! And those annual billions could then be redirected to taxpaying black folks, annually, to compensate them for all the recent and past wrongs that have been done by the federal, state, and local government abuses and sufferings inflicted; indeed, for untold opportunities denied and the too many unwarranted deaths, since 1968 forward! This sublimation of federal tax dollars from the oppressors to the oppressed are those reparations wrongly withheld from blacks since the Civil War, and since the Civil Rights Movement ended in 1968, with the apotheosis of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Flipping these funds is also "the big payback!" of which James Brown sung. "That's what I like, is the big pay back!"--hey hey hey!
