assasination attempt in Charlottesville VA

The white supremacist who drove his Dodge Challenger into a crowd of antiracist demonstrators in Charlottsville VA injuring 19 people and killing one probably thought he was a patriot. Worse still there are more where he came from.

Patriot Act…

by BAR poet in residence Raymond Nat Turner

Surreal screams, and
Confusion reigns supreme!
Blood, mostly O+,
puddles ankle-deep,
Everywhere—
As if crimson rained
from rag dolls strewn
about the street

a 40mph wakeup call
from fat, flabby high
fructose corn syrup
Hope and change sleep;
Yes, we can
Kill children whose parents were stupid
enough to name them Collateral Damage
and Civilian Casualty

Infatuated with the Fuhrer,
the neo-Nazi
sliced his silver-grey Challenger
Through marchers like Robert E. Lee
slicing the south on Traveler —
then backed that thing up
Get’n the hell outta there

He’s a hero; it’ll
take an all white
Jury all 30min.
To see alternative
Facts in this matter:
Negroz and handlers,
Seeking to “get paid,”
Played the race card,
blame game—and lost—
Hurling themselves on the
Hood of his muscle car!

Adding insult to injury,
now they’re spoutin’ the T-word—
Boy’s traumatized enough without
Nappy-headed fools talkin’
Terror!

Damn fools know no
Terrorists come
From the Buckeye State,
Keystone State, Lone Star State,
or Land of Lincoln—
Rag heads, diaper heads,
sand niggers, camel jockeys
come from a Stan:
Afghanistan, Pakistan,
Jus’ Name a Stan…
