Non-Lethal Weapons

With the United States and other first world powers

stepping up their efforts at globalization

One of their biggest obstacles has proven to be

the conscience resistance from the civilian population

Governments are closely working together with industry

utilizing the latest in "non-lethal" weaponry

Cracking down on dissent with domestic policing

"Learning from the riots of the 1990's"

Identifying these so-called threats with political profiling

Targeting the organizers of political movements

under the guise of protecting the civilian populace

Public relations propaganda fuels these political witch-hunts

Demonizing protesters as violent terrorists

Allowing more repression and torture of the non-combatant

The lie that protesters causing violence is the actual threat

is beat into the heads of the American public

Neutralize the threat

Eliminate the threat

Neutralize the threat

Eliminate

The pentagon and the D.O.D. are using "non-lethal" munitions

for social control and American corporate global domination

Inciting violence with riot control agents

Civilizing the brutality that protesting now warrants

but where's the civility in unrestrained brutality

Those killed by "non-lethal" weapons aren't any less dead

and the murderers who are responsible aren't any less accountable

be it politicians, businessmen or the soldiers in their stead

Neutralize the threat

Eliminate the threat

Neutralize the threat

Eliminate

If they don't ever have to answer for what they do

then they're free to make an example out of you

with their chemicals agents, vortex weapons

hallucinogens, pulse lasers, optical munitions

Weapons that induce confusion, stupor and coma

or debilitate your central nervous system

Cause nausea, bowel spasms, paralysis, seizure

heat your skin to an unbearable temperature

Burning, crippling, deforming, killing

immobilizing, disabling, incapacitating,

All committed over a safety net of legality

but masking the language to conceal the lethality
