But it was what I wanted to adress the arrogance of a system which feel itself
as above any judgement and carry on making people unhappy and frustrated. Why
is the US endemic violent? Again compare Isis beheadings with Columbine killed
or with the lynched blacks I wrote about showed in the postcards of "Without
sanctuary".
The idea you are arrogant and nobody can judge your acts give you a feeling of
total impunity.
The impunity is a cardinal sin is the Nazis in Europe or the Serbs in the
Balcony and Israel settlers torching olives or the Israeli army bombing schools
in Gaza or it's the white police in Ferguson and my own torturers walking some
streets I walk, unjudged, uncontested.

I agree with you but I don't think the grand jury was arrogant; the
deliberation went on for two days and I think everyone is scared as hell.
That said, the police are out of control here, there are so many goddamn
guns on the street - there was an unarmed black shot just three days ago
in NYC in a stairwell! You know who's arrogant? All of us who look at
these symbols and say - they're out there, they're not us. But at least in
the U.S. it's all us, we're all arrogant, and racism is so embedded in
this society that it's a wonder war hasn't broken out here yet. And it
will I think.
