自由世界领袖的堕落
今早读新闻，看见最新美国ICE执法人员近距离射杀公民的影片，心情久久不能平伏。死者是37岁的男护理师Alex Pretti。一个星期内，两位美国公民在公共场所无辜被执法人员枪杀。
还没经过仔细调查，政府第一时间跳出来摸黑死者，称他为国内恐怖份子，美国这个自由世界的领袖堕落成这样。
A Poem by Michael F. DuBois
IF THEY CALL ME A DOMESTIC TERRORIST
If they gun me down
in my own street someday
may my crime be compassion.
May the record show
from every angle
that I was helping a woman up
after they pushed her to the ground.
that not even their weapons
could stop me from extending
my hand to those in need,
that I was a walking example
of the best my elders taught me---
that everyone is equal
and worthy of defending.
If they tell the nation,
from the highest podium,
that I was a domestic terrorist,
let it be known that my radical act
was believing the best in people
when wanted nothing more
than to divide us.
