Americans Who Have Stood By Gadhafi In His Struggle For African Independence AND Protested Against Police Brutality In America Have A Mandate To Speak Out About What Is Happening In Libya Today

A week ago today I listened to the closing comments of a group of individuals who I credit for having a high amount of community consciousness to their agenda - despite my ideological differences with them.  

One of the priorities that they listed in these remarks made to the audience, summoning us to stay focused upon the "Struggle" was to "Fight Police Brutality".

At times when my priority list does not match up with that of others I chalk it up to differences in location and life's circumstances.

The events in Libya provide these people an opportunity to stand true to their calling.

There is no doubt about it that a large segment of the Black Nationalist movement in America has supported the efforts of Libya's Gadhafi to stand up against the "American Imperialists" who sought to under cut him.  When the American President Reagan bombed Libya they were grieving for Libya as it suffered from a "terrorist attack" from America rather than buying what the "Man Who Trekked Through Philadelphia Mississippi" told the public about his justifications for the bombing.

Today in Libya  Gadhafi has procured journeymen and missionaries to fire live rounds into the crowds of his fellow countrymen who are protesting for democracy.  This is "police/state brutality" by any measure.

I am looking toward those who have defended Gadhafi in his struggle to go on record to impart their views of the current events.
