Its sad that i live in a world
where a man can be killed becouase
He's black,the PAPD showed me this.
as they arested mumia,for being black
and there.
god,i thaught we were over this whole,
im better then you,becouse im a cop.
but i guess it never ends.
Mumia is an amazing person,
was wounded in the vicinity of  a crime seen
..oh no i understand..
A bleeding black man,who was beeten to an extent where he couldnt speak is on death row for admiting to killing a cop,though as i said the doctor on call that night recalls he couldnt speak,at the time of the man supposedly admitted to killing a cop.
