White lives matter more

By José M. López Sierra – Puerto Rico

The way the police handled the white supremacist insurrection at the Capitol Building in Washington DC on January 6, 2021 is more evidence that white lives matter more in the United States (US).

US nonwhites who have peacefully protested to have their civil rights respected by their own government have been historically beaten, arrested and jailed. The entire world can now contrast that with the police’s handling of a white supremacist insurrection allegedly, because President Trump had the elections stolen from him.

The evidence is clear. The US government (USG) is not a democracy. The USG is not governed by the rule of law. The USG is an outlaw state. The USG is governed for only the 1% of its citizens. The USG has historically committed crimes against humanity with impunity. And, that is why the world is justifiably even more convinced that the USG is the biggest threat to world peace.

President Biden will not make the systemic changes needed in the USG, so that it could govern for 100% of its citizens. The answer is not to defund the police. It is incumbent on the people to make sure that racists are never put in positions of power. If the people in power are not racists, then they will have non racists people under them.

We need a trickle down elimination of systematic US government racism.

Nací en NYC. Me mudé a Puerto Rico en el 1980 donde eventualmente me convertí en independentista al ver que PR no se administra para los boricuas. Me retiré tempranamente de la pedagogía para luchar 24/7 por la descolonización de Puerto Rico a través de marchas pacíficas anuales y empujar a la ONU hacer su trabajo. Necesitaremos un tsunami de gente protestando permanentemente para obligar a USA a cumplir con la ley internacional que prohíbe el coloniaje.
