Killing of Black Americans by US Police - The Murderous Orgies Approaches Its Crescendo.

by Eze Eluchie,

Clearly, the United States needs international help in addressing its growing racism problem which has the potential of assuming genocidal proportions. The main difference between what transpired in apartheid South Africa and what is going on now in the US, with regards to entrenched police murder and maltreatment of Black Americans, is that in the former, there was a clear cut message as to what, where and when Blacks were tolerated or not, as opposed to in the later where there is a fatally deceptive semblance of freedom and equality, and one could easily get killed for doing whatsoever, wheresoever and at any time for merely being Black.

Yet, you will have some supposed intellectuals trying to explain away this latest murder of Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, and Phillando Castile in St. Paul, Minnesota, urging that those who have already been transformed to corpses should have prostrated on the floor on sighting persons who are supposed to be law enforcement offices and going to great lengths to stress out what truly remarkable and great sacrifices cops make to keep the society safe – keep such rationalization and bunkum for the trash-bins.

With the election of a half-white-half-black President in the United States (the greatest misnomer in modern political history has been the common reference to Barack Obama as a Black American President, he is clearly half-White, half-Black), the killings has sky-rocketed in a palpable show of hatred expressing the muted phrase that: “whilst you can have the White House, we still gonna kill you”. With rising ultra-nationalism bothering on extremist bigotry being raised to the pedestal of electioneering issues, there is bound to be increased violence against identifiable peoples by the system.

The systematic and routine killing of Black Americans by White law enforcement officials in the US are developing a pattern and is assuming the status of a crime against humanity as envisioned under the Rome Statute and a proper case for adjudication at the international arena.

As with the murderers of Travon Martins, Eric Garner and several others and the over 100 unarmed Black Americans killed by police men in the US in year 2015, the murderers of Alton Sterling, Phillando Castile and others to follow, will walk home, ‘free’ and ‘innocent’, and probably make a few millions auctioning the murder weapons, talking of how they committed murder or just writing a book on ‘how to murder and walk free’.

NB: After this piece was written, it was confirmed that 5 police officers in Dallas were murdered by snipers, apparently in retaliation against the too frequent murders of Black Americans by police officers - this is a most unfortunate descent down a path the United States can least afford to thread at this time, or any other time for that matter. The murders must simply stop, lest full anarchy erupts.
