Crazy World - Green Lantern Avery Storm and Uncle Murda

Aight, I'm posting this in protest to the BART officer that murdered Oscar Grant in Oakland, California. I ask that the Oakland communities let due process run its course and that the judge and jury realize that this officer needs to be prosecuted and found guilty of 2nd degree murder or manslaughter in the first degree. This is getting crazy and the police must be held accountable when they break the law. I understand that some black communities do not make an officers job easy, but there is no excuse for the senseless murders dealt by the hands of police officers. You are placed in the position of authority in order to maintain peace and lawful order. This does not give u the right to take justice into your own hands. The actions of this officer were despicable and should result in him being punished to the fullest extent of the law.



Residents of Oakland, I ask that you maintain peace, in order to prevent more senseless injuries and deaths from occurring. I know that your first instinct is to retaliate, but the difference between humans and animals is that we can resist that first instinct and think before we act irresponsibly. Maintain order in your communities and peacefully voice your outrage over this incident. Do not harm that officer in any way so that due process can take place. This is an opportunity for the judicial system to prove that it works. Show the people that everyone is held accountable for unlawful behavior, no matter if your the President, Police or poor on the street. No one is above the law. To the officer that took this young man away from his daughter, you should be ashamed of your actions.

Shout out to Uncle Murda and Avery Storm for lending there voices to this cause and shout out to Green Lantern for making this collab happen. I'm grateful to be a part of what took place in the studio that night.

Peace and Love,

Phlaymz is Good Money
