Protest and Riot

Writer: Brittany BenkoBrittany Benko

Shuffling feet on a crowded street

Voices yelling in the crowd

Breaking and entering into a shop

Showing violence while proud and loud

Creating justice is what you say?

Crime and hatred is not the way

Only love can show remorse

Instead, people choose to use brutal force

One blue brother does not speak for all

They protect and serve

They will not let ignorance evolve

I do not commend the man who murdered your friend

I do, however, support passivity

Know that the innocent will not back down to your threats

We stand united until the end
