Looting

When I was
Young in the
1940s the looters
In a riot were shot on
Sight irregardless of color
Religion class or anything else
Breaking the laws protecting life
Liberty and property but now
We seem to have put our
Premium on human life
Over property a trade
Strange to one who
Grew up to respect
Authority but to
Question and
Audit police
Politicians
Brass or
NCOs
By lawful
Investigation
Rather than riot
Looting burning of
Private property
Hurting most
Those who
Riot for
Loot
Or fun.
How long
Until shoot
On sight will
Be used again to
Stop rioting looting.
