"How many Blacks have to have their homes, children, neighborhood, or lives stolen without recourse before someone acts out his rage? How much Israeli-styled occupation policing and graphic videos of police murders is enough for a person to feel hatred for those that do these things?"

"When a Black man violates the taboo of using violence against whites to express rage or hatred, he pushes a psychic panic button where white fear and (often feigned) Black empathy conflate. Many clamor to denounce Johnson as a crazed lone gunman, but others, holding a minority opinion, view his acts as a necessary evil to shake-up and sober-up White America and their compromised, quisling Black leaders. Johnson’s violent actions articulated the rage of millions of oppressed people wholly who are tired of being killed, jailed, poisoned and blamed for their plight created by an indifferent elite." -- Dr. Randy Short in Made in America, A failed Human Rights State

The USA is a broken, rogue empire and should be renamed as the the CEC America (Corporate Empire Central America) as it attempts to preside over the eminent destruction of the planet Earth and the enslavement or destruction of the world's population.

It appears in factual article after factual article in pieces separated by increasingly smaller time spans. Things like approving 1500 fracking wells in the Gulf of Mexico, juxtaposed with massive fires in the tar sands and the dying of mangroves in Australia...mixed with the inevitable murder by police of another unarmed black person, occupation of whole cities by goon squads dressed as and trained by the Israel Occupation Force, and genocide of middle easterner using the lame excuse that "ISIS" or "Assad" or the "Russians" are behind the now everyday mass murders by individuals whose motives are everything from hating oneself for being gay to, well, we don't know.

“Johnson’s violent actions articulated the rage of millions of oppressed people wholly who are tired of being killed, jailed, poisoned and blamed for their plight created by an indifferent elite.”

Running over, blowing up or otherwise maiming children is beyond my understanding just as treating a white girl or boy different in school than a black girl or boy is beyond my understanding... extending that to actual segregation into underfunded schools for the poor and people of color and rich schools with art and science programs for the white elite. I absolutely do not understand it. I not only don't understand it but feel powerless to do anything about it.

If the CEC America wants to destroy our economy in Dominica or Bolivia, which it has done many times in the past, it will just do it. Every mixed economy socialist government in Latin America is under attack by American vultures. The propaganda machine mows us down so I am having arguments with people who should, based on their political sophistication, color and poverty level, should know better.

I was glad when #BlackLivesMatter and their white allies shut down the interstates in various cities. I was happy that there was no state or protester violence in Dallas and later Memphis. I sat and watched the protests live and posted the feeds on facebook. I was enraged by the police goon squads in Minneapolis, Oakland, Baton Rouge and elsewhere. And I was "shocked (well I knew it was coming, so maybe not shocked) that the leaders of the CEC America spent so much time pandering to #BlueLivesMatter and #AllLivesMatter and spewing out platitudes designed to put everyone to sleep.

"The same militaristic USA that taught Johnson and millions of others to kill in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and the world over has long covered up the relationship between discharged servicemen and violence throughout the society. Why should Micah Johnson be portrayed as an anomaly? Neglected, sin-sick, mentally challenged, and guilty conscience-afflicted ex-killers for Uncle Sam—often homeless and disabled—are time bombs and a pathological inheritance to a society addicted to war. Furthermore, Micah is just a raindrop in the storm cloud of a new generation that came of age during the Great Recession with no prospects for the future. This cohort fears nothing and has little to live for, and their anger at being targeted for prison, addiction, senseless wars and early death represents a clear and present danger to the bigoted oligarchs in power."

This is exactly what I am seeing in all the recent terrorist attacks. Attacks created by institutionalized state corporate racism, bigotry, economic injustice and training for perpetual war.
