Break Your Laws

when your laws
are applied and enforced
differently to people
according to their religious,
political, or sexual orientation...

when they by application
favor the rich over the poor,
the few over the many.

when they take away dignity,
and individual rights...
when they are used to abuse,
manipulate, and enslave...

when they are immoral,
unjust, and demeaning...
when they stand against freedom...

i will break your laws
with total commitment!
