Fuck The War (Part I)

In case you hadn’t noticed, I haven’t said much about the war, our President or anything in the political realm. It’s not because I haven’t had anything to say. I just haven’t formulated it all yet, but there are a lot of other people that have. Here’s one of my favorites from today. It comes from Jim Brown of Bluebird fame.

Subject: I need to know i'm with you

Buckle your shoes, cause that mother fucker is coming after you too. Sick the way they make you watch em' take their way. Make their decisions long ago, before we even knew there was a choice they told us to go sit back down, nothing for you to do over here or anywhere we decide to go. Yeah, they are the ones that built the railroad, cut your town in two, run those tribes down into the ground. You got no choice so they say, but they spread themselves thin and the day will come when something will give. Yeah, something is gonna give. we’re building an under ground army, Are you enlisted. You know you can sign even through your mind. Every time you say, “Fuck You,” there is a formless force that is being built. But if you give in to the helplessness and complacency they advance and take more ground. You are not alone, we are here, we can take back what has been taken, each person is a sovereign nation. Retaliate through your chosen means, we have the power, we can impeach, we can defeat the guns through a non violent means, of coarse people will die, but we will all be at the finish line some day. Before you go don’t you want to make a change? Because changes are a comin' which way do you want them to go, speak up !! Let us know !! your family is in Baghdad, your life is being pawned. Decide in your mind where you drawn the line, don’t be afraid, there’s a new day comin' our way. enlist in the peoples army, The war has always been here, now it is just a little more clear, a little more near. Know who your friends are, who are your allies? Write me back , stay in contact, speak to me I need all of you, we will move while we are learning what to do. We don’t take orders, but we have a mission. We will decide as we go. We are making the road as we go, help me help you. Liberation declaration, land and life are sacred.

We Are Building An Underground Army
