In the almost two weeks since Mike Brown was murdered in
Ferguson, Missouri we have seen what most residents would call a peaceful
community turn into a war zone. With images going viral through social media
the scenery looks like a battle between the citizens and powers that be in some
third world countries. In what seems like a case that needed no more than
common sense to see who was in the wrong and at fault, a war has begun.
Literally, with Martial Law allowing the National Guard to occupy and take
action on this community whether provoked or not.
What we are seeing before our eyes is the veil of so called
freedom being lifted to see the harsh reality of corrupt powers in control. Our
society thrives off silence, fear, and ignorance; so the relentless pursuit for
justice in Ferguson is throwing the authorities off. Where normally the crowds
would have dispersed with the next breaking news segment, the voices have only
grown in numbers and gotten larger.
