Cut the jibber jabber, This ain't for smiles and giggles. People dying, people lying, And people playing victim. People not standing, Some people not sitting; But what's the freaking difference? Look at the big picture. America still killing black folks off, And they want us to NOT protest? My hat goes off! To Colin kaepernick and anybody taking a stand, or a seat to show America that we're not playing. That's my stance. Talking changes to be made and black lives matter. You can argue that all lives matter, But, BLACK LIVES MATTER. Cops is out here killing black men and getting PTO, being acquitted for some shit that if the skin color was switched they would get life fo'. I know you hear the difference, I know you see it too. Trump wanna make the states great? That only makes me blue. Cause he don't even see the struggles, or know what "equal" means; he only sees the money, you know that pasture green. Make us great again? Make us great again? Only way to make us great is if we bleach our skin. Make us white, then we equal - that's what they really want. I bet I got trump supporters shaking their heads like "you said it. Well done ..." Cause what you voting for? If you voting for him. I mean Hilary's a stretch too but at least she feels more empathy and is more supportive than him. That's the difference: Who be in it for power and the checks, Verse the ones who be in it for the love and respect.... -Lij
