The above video shows South African police slaughtering striking miners. Although the race card is being played effectively in the United States to divide us, it is not about race: it is about power and control as shown in this video.
Does anyone want to comment on the massive amounts of hollow point bullets that our government is buying? It is not for target practice and this type of ammunition is illegal to use under the Treaty of Versailles. What kind of freedom makes people pay tribute to a centralized power structure which then uses it to buy 4 rounds of ammunition for each citizen in the nation? That we know of. I do not see either political party addressing what should be our number one campaign issue. And that is why they will continue.

A Modern Day Worker Revolt in South Africa
In a stunning and shocking turn of events at Lonmin’s Marikana platinum mine in South Africa, Reuters shows this extremely graphic clip of police opening fire on striking miners. A Reuters cameraman says he saw at least seven bodies after the shooting, which occurred when police laying out barricades of barbed wire were outflanked by some of an estimated 3,000 miners massed on a rocky outcrop near the mine, northwest of Johannesburg. Marx is not dead. In fact, far from it.
