We won’t reform the gestapo

Spare us your talk of body cams.

No actually we are good.

We don’t want more money for the gestapo.

We don’t want increased funding for the paramilitary fascists.

We don’t want our tax dollars to pay for them to gather with other fascists in catered training retreats where they learn more about what it means to be a gestapo.

We don’t want to scrimp on groceries so hokey training videos can be made for the gestapo.

We don’t want our wages to pay for their new, still lethal weapons.

We don’t want to pay for them to learn to control us when we protest their killings and kidnappings of our friends and neighbors.

We don’t want the gestapo, but enlightened.

We don’t want the gestapo to learn more about the communities they choose to terrorize.

We don’t want the gestapo to have higher definition cameras on when they kill us.

We don’t want the gestapo to have additional hires who can focus on legal, on PR.

We don’t care about the gestapo’s “working conditions.”

We don’t want to help them deal with their “fear” which is actually impunity.

We don’t want a commission to investigate whether their killings of us are legitimate.

We don’t want the FBI to investigate.

We don’t want a flourishing of court cases due to a flourishing of killings.

We want them gone. Not just from Minneapolis, Chicago, LA, New Orleans, Charlotte, but gone.

We want them disbanded.

We want them to be a distant memory.

We want them and all their murders and kidnappings to remain prominent in our public education curricula so that they can never again re-form as an entity.

We accept no compromise.

We want a world without borders on which the gestapo could never exist.

We banish them.

To all those taken by the gestapo:

We love you, we miss you, we fight in your memory.
