In the Hands of Evil

by Jhanay Lawson

Sir you are under arrest and you do not have the right to remain silent, YOU BETTER BE SILENT.

You cannot refuse to answer the ridiculous questions I ask you. You better answer boy!

You DO NOT have the right to consult an attorney before speaking to us because we kill now and ask questions later.

Boy I said look at me when im talking to you. Why are you looking at me put your hands up! NO I said GET ON THE GROUND!

Why are you resisting arrest!? Show me you’re ID!

*BOW* One black man died and guess what his weapon was? Guess what the police were threatened by? A 9mm wallet.

Or wait wait maybe it was a 12 gauge hairbrush. Or it was just a cellphone with a 100 round.

This generation is shortening by the month because of people who are supposed to protect us. Instead they neglect us and pay attention to the ones who don't look like us.

Dear my future son, if you are ever encountered by the dangerous species known as the racist white policeman, don't be reckless, listen to what he says.

He may just be as ruthless and can care less about your life then he does for the next.

Listen very closely for this can prepare you for the test. If you are walking home by yourself and one rolls up on you, don't run.

Because once you run he thinks its time to have fun. If you are in a car, start recording then put your hands on the dashboard. Have everything out so he doesn't have to shout.

I know its hard to abide by the rules but if not then the consequences may be lethal, please listen to me and dont leave your life in the hands of evil.
