No Justice No Peace

A universal truth, for every action, there is a reaction.

If there is no reaction, then the action never happened.

You overdraft your bank account.

The bank fines you for your error.

You drive through a stop sign.

The police give you a ticket.

You forgot to buy bread.

You're eating cold cuts with no bread.

For every action, there is a reaction.

Justice delayed is justice denied.

What does that mean?

It means cause and effect.

It means the poor, the minority, the old, the forgotten, the people on the margins who live this universal truth.

When crimes, inhumanity, intolerance, bigotry, racism are poured out on these groups, nothing traditionally happens.

A black man is shot and killed in the street, and seven years later, the officer who shot them is let go.

Nothing happened.

The black man is still dead.

The man who shot him doesn't lose his job; he's moved to another town.

Justice delayed is justice denied.

We have all seen the videos of the insurrection enacted against our capitol, our congress, our senate, and it's employees.

They not only destroyed property through smashing and breaking, but they also filmed their crimes as they ransacked, urinated, and defecated.

They did this in the people's house.

So you're telling me if a group of people broke into your house, smashed up the place, urinated and defecated everywhere, and left a note saying die bitch, you're okay not arresting the culprits?

You're okay with doing nothing?

As if nothing happened…

No.

No justice, no peace.

Bullies do not respond to time outs.

Bullies do not care about your feelings.

Bullies only think about themselves.

Bullies respond only to one thing and one thing only.

Consequences.

Without a response to their actions, bullies will do their bullying again, and next time it will be worse.

No matter how hard it is, the bully must be faced and stopped.

Just ask those that appeased bullies in the past what monsters were unleashed when nothing was done?

It's strange how the evil side of mankind believes it can get its way until it can't.

Then the darker angels of humanity howl like spanked children declaring you punished me.

You stopped me.

You angered me.

The bully is only stopped when we seek justice over me.

Justice comes right quick.

Let it come.

Let us bring it for the right purpose.

Justice renews hope in those that despair.

Justice lifts the minds and hearts of the lost.

Justice now, justice now.

Justice now.

Peace
