No Justice, No Peace

Brittany Wilson 1988 (Milwaukee, WI)

Houses getting shot at
Children dying from stray bullets
Cops are shooting their guns off & they abuse their authoritative power
No Justice, No Peace

People are robbed at gunpoint & killed
Murder cases turning cold
Storefronts being robbed at gunpoint & shot at
No Justice, No Peace

If you value the lives of your family & their safety along with your own life & safety, Please put the guns down. It's never worth losing your life or your freedom. #NoJusticeNoPeace
