What is this country coming to when citizens die under the custody of authoritative figures?
How is it that we are living in this place where crime is happening everywhere and being reported more frequently while nothing is seen to resolve them effectively. Now and then they talk about busting or crippling gangs and syndicates but they never ever have convincing coverage reinforcing these statements that are put in the news. This in turn leaves people plenty of room to speculate and assume the worst of the so called law enforcers.
All that is going on here make me feel like a second rate citizen in the country I was born in, in the country where I grew up with fellows of all ethnicity. Why are we being treated this way? What sin did we commit to deserve such treatment? Most of all, why do the "powers that be" just watch on and allow it to happen?
To some, human lives mean so little. However it would be a different story when it comes to their own and their loved ones. How can a man treat another person lesser than himself, when God created us all in His image? Remember, the person you harm and kill is somebody's child. Somebody's sibling, parent, nephew/niece, aunt/uncle, friend, spouse.

I look at what is happening to this country, I feel sad and angry for its state. I often ask God, what is the point to innocent people suffering and dying, without a chance to ever do good in their lives.
Idealistically I know the reason. However being only a mere human, with weaknesses and limitations, especially great awareness of my own limitations... I cannot see why. All I can do is wait, though as annoying as it is to continue suffer and watch other suffer worse, I fear that my turn might be near. It is come to the point where I do not even want get into any situation where it would involve the authority, even if I am in the right. The trust has been long gone, it started when word spreads about them accepting bribes.
We can only pray for our own safety and pray that the good that would come out of this makes the death of innocents, justifiable. Let not their deaths be in vain. Let our suffering not merely be a passing.

An innocent man that was led to his death, was a father. He was a woman's husband. He was a couple's son. A son that dedicated his life in helping a cause which he believed as I do, would make it a better place for us all. A son of the nation, who's life has been ended by the those that seek to oppress the people.
These people who died, did not fight back, being outnumbered and driven to their deaths. Are those responsible for their deaths, void of any conscience? Do the pleas of mercy from the victims not mean anything? What is the use of the judiciary and prison, when law is taken into their own hands. Why are they allowed to get away with such acts when the citizens cannot even protest peacefully!? To silence them is to be found guilty. The voices in the hearts and minds of the killers will not go away. For they are marked with the blood of the people whose lives they took.
Here is one small voice wishing condolences to the departed. Praying that justice would at least be done in their lifetime. Hoping to encourage others to strengthen their resolve. Hoping this will fuel others to persevere in doing their part in getting rid of the upholders of a faulty and corrupted system. Let not their deaths be in vain, for they are more reasons for us to soldier, together as one united nation irregardless of color and beliefs. For the greater good and equality for all. For all.
Spread the word, encourage people you know to do their part. Let the world be known of what is going on in the country today and that we have the power to change it.
