Murder At The G-8 Summit

Shots fired by hired thugs

Public servants don't murder and maim

Hiding behind their double standards

targeting the victim with bullets and blame

Providing a wall of defense for dictators and tyrants

Shielding them from accountability, concern and complaints

Showing zero tolerance and lacking restraint

Combating defiance with violence

All while they decide our fates

Create a story from an 'impartial' and 'reliable' source

One that sanctions and justifies force

And allows those responsible to parade their remorse

While the corpse is further desecrated

Another terror tactic the police implement

Resentment shown to those who oppose and hold this whole charade in contempt

When police over reaction is caught by the cameras

The world watches to see what happens next

The politicians protect and defend those responsible

For needlessly gunning down or beating a person to death

This gross abuse of power sets the example for violence

And rejects the ideals of tolerance and respect

So will their continuing assaults result in more violence?

What else could they possibly expect?

Now that they've set the precedence

For brutality towards activists and excusing police actions

All other cities can increase their efforts

To stifle the message and stamp out reaction

What happened to our right to assemble?

This resembles the tactics the fascists enacted

To insure that no one listens while they lock us in prisons

And everyone's civil and human rights are retracted
