America…
the beautiful?

For what reason do people call this land the beautiful?  I personally do not understand it.  This country has done a lot of wrong to a lot of different people. Should I be thanking America for the millions of Native Americans that they committed genocide upon? Or, should we be thankful for the African slave trade; where the numbers have climbed over the hundred million mark that were lost in the passage from Africa to America. The Ku Klux Klan now there's a group I know we all enjoy! How about a hand for the Justice Department doing their jobs by locking up all the Black people they can. Lynching, now that should bring a smile to your faces. Now I'm sure our ancestors didn't mind slavery one bit, sure looked like fun; yes sir worked 200 years for free. Hell we don't need no repatriation like they gave the Japanese; remember your only considered 3/5 human by this country.  They even re-instituted slavery for us, its called prison. The fastest growing business in America today is the Private Prison Industry. Back in the "old days" we knew this by another name, and that was Plantation! In 1996 the prison industry made approximately 9 billion dollars, and they have only just begun. Sure we need penal institutions for criminals but everyone they have locked up is not a criminal. Why is it that Blacks are more severely punished by the law than Whites? Is this what they mean by "justice and liberty for all"? Or have we been duped again by those who speak with a forked tongue. Never can I find in the history of this wicked country, where they were fair to any other race other than there own. The ruling powers of this world today are all evil! From the Pope to the President totally in opposition to every law the almighty JAH has commanded. Therefore everything is now off its course. The Serpent (The United Snakes of America) has injected us with its poison and its effects are

certainly causing death! Did you know that there were no black people in the jails of America in the beginning. It wasn't until the so-called Emancipation Proclamation came into being that we find large amounts of Blacks being imprisoned. The reason is a  Vagrancy law  that was designed just to trap us again. This law stated that every newly freed slave must pay a fine to the state or be locked up and forced to work, of course you know that work was mainly on a plantation. How can people who were forced to work without pay come up with 200 dollars per person in 1865? They have never dealt fairly with us and they never will! There has been a hidden hand if you will trying, and most times succeeding, to keep us down. We are at war with these devils and most of us are too ignorant to even notice. War comes in many different forms, psychological, chemical, spiritual, economical as well as the actual physical combat. It is time for you to understand and open your eyes to the fact that these people use us as prey and guinea pigs. Do you remember the Tuskeegee experiment? Did you know that our voting rights are voted on by them and that next vote will be between 2002 and 2004? How is it that all the suffering and blood we put into this country and they still get to decide if we can vote. All other races can become citizens and their voting rites are the same as the Whites, but not the Black American (I understand some of you have a problem with being called Afrikan-you simply do not understand yourselves). If a cat has kittens in an oven do you call them biscuits? Of course not, so if Afrikans start having babies in America does that make them Black Americans or Afrikans- I know its hard to remember where you came from after 200 years of abuse, but you are from Afrika like it or not. As for me I'm proud of my heritage you see the first man came from Afrika, and if you believe that God made man; then my ancestor is none other than the Almighty GOD Himself and who would not be proud of that fact!  Until next time, wake up and be counted among

the Sons of the Living God- JAH RASTAFARI.
PEACE & BLESSINGS

America the Great
The greatest country in the world has a problem. It doesn't seem to care either. The problem I am speaking about is the loss of morality in America. Don't get me wrong I love America, but I am no patriot. I know too much about the history of this country to be patriotic and it pains me. At one time it tried to live up to certain morals and ideas. Now everything is about money. Some people do anything to attain it. The violence and crime in this country is overwhelming. The prison system is overcrowded with poor people. The death rate is such that it seems like we are at war. We no longer are able to control our children. The education system is a disgrace; it makes our children into robots for this system. What I mean is they only teach them what they want them to know. It is evident, right now that they don't what them to know anything judging by the cuts in school budgets. Hundreds of thousands are homeless in the richest country in the world. Homosexuality, which is a sin in most religious text, is accepted as a normal lifestyle. I know a lot of people believe this is a personal choice, or that this is a genetic thing, but you better check yourself before you wreck yourself. America is heading down the same road that Sodom, Gomorrah, and Babylon. Everyone who reads the Bible, Torah, or Koran knows of these places. The immoral behavior of people in this country influences people in other countries. America is the leader of the world. It can not save it self, it is prophecy being fulfilled. This place has truly become a modern day Babylon as described in the Bible. To those that say I should leave if I don't like it, I am. I am only completing my task for JAH RASTAFARI. We can only save ourselves by turning to God without delay. They legalized murder and call it abortion, what is wrong with you people. Don't you know you will pay for the things you do in this life? Listen people I am a voice of reason trying to warn you of the consequences if we don't change our ways. We need to begin to love others and ourselves as
