This is the 21st century.
Every country and nation on this planet, though they differ
in languages and skin colors, are aspiring for the age of advanced civilization
that promotes harmony.
However, there is only one country that pertains to its
inhuman physiology and swim against the current of the times.
That is the United
States of America.
In this country innocent black people are shot or strangled
to death in broad daylight.
Since it had proclaimed its establishment, hoisting the
Stars and Stripes on the land drenched with the blood of the massacred native
Indians, it has always been the place barren of human rights and deluged with
such misanthropy as racism and chauvinism.

policemen put

In particular, racial discrimination against the black has
gone to such extremes as of resulting in their poverty, unemployment,
deprivation of political rights, and even the loss of their lives.
Here are some evidences-an 18-year-old black man was shot
dead by a white policeman in Ferguson of Missouri in the US and another young black man, who had been
eking out his living by selling cigarettes on the street, was strangled by
police in New York
last year.
It is annoying that the police responsible for protecting
life and property of the people committed such outrages of ruthlessly killing
innocent citizens; what is more disturbing is the acquittals of the accused
policemen by the US judiciary and the patronage of the murderers by US
President Obama of African origin.
This is the situation in the US which styles itself a “human
rights judge” of the world.
Injustice can never win justice.
These human rights violations incurred public anger from
across the US.
There were demonstrations of the people in more than 170
cities including Ferguson of Missouri and New York, in protest against the
justification of the crimes by the authorities.
Enraged demonstrators conducted fierce protest actions,
shouting such slogans as “Police, put your weapons down,” “We protest against
the acquittal of the white policeman,” and “No justice and peace in the US.”
However, bare-handed demonstrators were mercilessly cracked
down by the authorities.
The Missouri
state authorities declared a state of emergency, enlisted in heavily-armed
police and even military troops, employed tear gas, smoke shell and other
repressive means, arrested hundreds of demonstrators and injured countless
people.
The US
policy of extreme racial discrimination and subsequent human rights violations
are drawing strong condemnation and denunciation from the international
community.
The
Los Angeles Times and
other media in the US
reported that the murders of black people put the US standard of human rights on the
chopping board of the world’s press.
The spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry stated
that ill-balanced antidotes the US
judiciary had taken to the large-scale eruptions of the outrages of the people
proved once again that the failure in the settlement of serious disintegration,
discrimination and inequality by the indexes of the races was a weal point in
the systematic structure of the American-style democracy.
As the situation shows the United States is the country where
all sorts of human rights, to say nothing of elementary rights of a human
being, are obliterated and the country of barbarians.
