Somewhere in Canada

Somewhere in Canada

A young brown man and a couple of friends drove into a white man's yard.
The white man pulled a handgun and shot the young brown man dead.

Pointing a handgun is threatening death.
He threatened death.
He delivered death.

In the court room he pleaded innocence.
He was not responsible.

The white man said
the gun malfunctioned.
The white man's son said
he was just trying to scare them.

What is the basic responsibility given to any child who uses a toy gun?
Never point it at another person.

The Justice system says "he is not responsible."

A jury of peers indicts the society.

A killer walks among you and lives within you.

Behold the killer as he pumps his gas.

Behold the killer as he drinks his Timmies.

A killer lives among you and lives within you.

Stuff

This is my stuff.
I have the right to protect my stuff.
I earned all my stuff.

There is insurance paid on all that stuff.
No one will take my stuff.

I will kill for my stuff.

The jury will say
It was not murder
He was just protecting his stuff.

How much did you pay for your stuff?
How much do we pay for your stuff?

How much must we give up?
For your stuff.

How much stuff is enough?
