Immortal Technique is a good friend of mine, an emcee, a thinker and an activist. Click the link to read his recent blog entry regarding the police state in response to the injustice of the Sean Bell verdict.

U know how I dooo! lol. *daps
Very enlightening post.
Thats whats up!
damn after reading his blog i have so many
stories about growing up east L.A. about the Pigs. at least i have my life...R.I.P. Sean Bell, my younger brother 18 years old at time of death and to anyone else, killed for no reason.
" i can't ponder on the image to long, it brings me nothing but depressing thoughts, a frame of mind i care not to enter on a regular base, it enters into my dreams on many night without warning interrupts,
peaceful memories... wishing to hear my brother's crazy laughter or even a dumb argument we had, anything is better than nothingness...
thats why i always, say...
don't sweat the small stuff.
Deev, peep this by Brother Adisa

Deep, oh so deep, very heart felt.
my comment was for you to Rico :)
The reason why i messes with Immortal Technique..I messes with Tech!
Lol - but seriously, I can imagine the Bell family's pain - I live in London (UK), and there have been numerous cases of police pushing it too far, but I must say its nowhere near the level of behaviour that police from the States are on, so I cant even compare the two.
It defintely is a universal thing and we need to tackle it - I'm sick of hearing about my people(from all over the world) being slaughtered by these so called "protectors of society" -- these crooked-police and abusors of power need to get put in their place -- I bet if these guys were stripped of their badges and back in ordinary office-wear, they would soon begin to regret everything wrong they did, simply cause they would realise they no-longer have that badge to stop people from kicking their ass on a daily.....
p.s Revolutionary Vol.2 changed my view of the world - Tech is serious!
Aaron, I hear you on the LDN front. Remember that "terror raid" last summer (or the summer before, I've forgotten)?
Great blog Immortal Tech addressing, this is the only way change come.
Yeah that Terror raid thing was uncalled for on so many levels - Im not sure but i think that wasn't long after the police fucked-up and killed innocent Brazilian Jean Charles De Menezes (R.I.P) at Stockwell tube station -- that vexed me to the highest level; the way the police tried to cover it up.....how the fuck can you cover-up the fact that you shot an innocent man from Brazil, who was working to support his family back home, just because(in your stereotypical/racist mind) you thought he looked Arab, wtf?!?!
sorry, i get worked up about injustice..especially when its cultural/racial....
