Chapter 350: The Most Direct Entry Point

"I know that people are concerned about the assault on the police on Wood Street in Oran County, which is indeed distressing, but based on the latest information I have received, the motive of the perpetrator is the most important thing for us to reflect on, because his motive is racism. ”

"I don't know if you remember the fire that happened yesterday on Garden Street, not far from Orlando, but it was not an accident, but a man-made vicious case, someone deliberately set the fire and caused a woman named Margaret to be burned alive in the house, this Margaret is the wife of the suspect in this police attack. ”

"Later, I don't know what kind of pressure the police were forced to, or if there were some unspoken rules in the case, in short, the police did not arrest any murderers, and because justice could not be served, the suspects could only choose the most extreme revenge methods. ”

"I believe that he didn't want to confront the police, let alone kill the police, he just wanted to kill the criminals, but unfortunately our police are doing their best to protect the criminals, just because the arson and murderer is a white man, so our suspects have no choice but to shoot with the police, so there is the current result. ”

"I am very sad about such an incident, because it should not have happened in the first place, and if there was no racial discrimination, if our white friends could put aside their prejudices and not hate and kill their black compatriots, if the white police could put aside their prejudices and enforce the law fairly, instead of treating blacks as second-class citizens lower than whites, I don't think such a tragedy would have happened. ”

"In conclusion, I want to say that may all those who have passed away go all the way, and may there be no more tragedy of racial discrimination in heaven!"

After making this speech, the mayor of Itley, Martin, ended the reporter's interview and went back to his villa, and his speech immediately shocked the whole United States as the media spread it: What happened? Is this attack on the police racist?

After Martin's speech, the major newspapers urgently revised the headlines of the latest editions, including headlines such as "Bloodshed Caused by Racial Discrimination" and "Seven White Police Officers Fall Victim of Racial Discrimination", and some newspapers even ran headlines such as "Desperate Black Violent Resistance Against Racial Discrimination" and "The Last Cry of the Black Community."

Although later, the Itley police stressed in an interview with the media that they have not yet found out the suspect's motive, and they do not know where Mayor Martin got the information, they also denied that the attack on the police had any connection with the fire that broke out in the evening, and stressed that these are two separate cases, and the police are doing their best to solve them.

However, with Mayor Martin's previous statement, it is clear that the words of the Itley police do not have any credibility for ordinary people.

Just an hour after Mayor Martin's speech, black groups in Eitley surrounded the police station to protest the department's racial discrimination.

This was clearly organized behind this, and when the black group surrounded the police station, Mayor Martin happily reported the situation to Zhou Ming.

"Mr. Zhou Ming, according to your statement, it really has a lot of influence, after I spoke, I didn't even contact those black groups, they took the initiative to start demonstrations and protests, and now they have surrounded the police station, and I have also contacted black groups in other cities, and they have also said that they will organize demonstrations in solidarity with Itley's anti-racism march. Martin said happily to Zhou Ming.

Compared with Martin's happiness, Zhou Ming was much calmer: "This is just the beginning, and then we can send some more cases of racial discrimination to various media, whether it is white to black, or white police to black, I believe there must be many such cases, right?"

Martin nodded and said, "There are a lot, in Itley, almost every three or four days, a black man dies at the hands of the police, and many of them are shot by the police for no reason, and sometimes the black people don't put their hands in the first place where they can see, the police will shoot, and such things will not be dealt with afterwards." I used to be a member of a black group, and I've seen a lot of similar records. ”

Zhou Ming is not surprised by this, because more than 20 years later, there will be a black man in the United States who is mistaken by the police for being dangerous because he helped an autistic person, so the police shoot and shoot this kind of unbelievable thing, not to mention in the 90s, when law enforcement is more violent, maybe as long as you don't put your hand in time where the police can see, the police will pull out their guns.

"Then let's get all this out there, we need to have a torture of police accountability. Zhou Ming said.

So then under Martin's arrangement, the major media and black groups across the country received information about racial discrimination causing blacks to be shot and killed by white police officers for no reason, and as these news were revealed, blacks all over the United States were outraged, and only a few hours later, large-scale black demonstrations broke out in many cities, including New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New Orleans and Chicago, to protest against the racism of the police.

In New York, thousands of blacks took to the streets to march, occupying Union Square, unfurling signs such as "No to Racism" and "Black Lives Matter" and confronting police officers.

During the confrontation, a photo of a black woman holding a sign aloft and calmly facing the arrest of five heavily armed police officers became popular all over the United States, and countless people couldn't help but exclaim after seeing this photo: "Look! This is the hero of the new century, she is standing in the center of the storm, calmly facing everything; I seem to see the Lady of Liberty holding a torch in her hand!"

Of course, there are also people who point the finger at the other party's police: "Look at how obscene and unbearable those policemen are, obviously facing an unarmed thin woman, but they still have to hold guns, wear body armor, and five people dare to step forward, I can't imagine how cowardly these policemen are, how can I believe that such a cowardly policeman can protect our safety?"

Compared to New York, black demonstrations in places like Chicago and New Orleans were less peaceful, with violent clashes, black people throwing rocks and other things at the police, and the police shooting rubber bullets and tear gas at black people, and many of the clashes resulted in injuries to black people and police.

......

"This damn Martin! He must have deliberately said this to the media, just to expand the matter and become a contradiction of racial discrimination in the United States, this must be Zhou Ming's idea, it's really disgusting!"

In the room of Big Wood Manor, Wood cursed loudly in front of his father George, and he also said: "I knew that this Zhou Ming would join forces with that from Martin, we shouldn't have let that become the mayor of Eitley in the first place, he just listened to us on the surface, but in fact he will always be a and will not be with us!"

Compared to Wood's scolding, George was still calm, he waved his hand and said, "My child, as a nobleman, you should behave elegantly and not so manicly, and besides, what is happening now is just a group of making trouble, what does it have to do with us? This was proven thirteen years ago, didn't it?"

Listening to George's explanation, Wood calmed down, it is true that these black marches are nothing now, you must know that thirteen years ago, the black marches have evolved into a large-scale riot that has affected almost half of the city of Eitley.

But even so, in the end, when the Union troops entered the town, no matter how badly the damage of those blacks was, no matter how many houses were destroyed in a few blocks, it still had no effect on the Great Wood family.

"I don't deny that Martin will join forces with that Chinese, but I obviously overestimate their abilities, and they are still racist, do they still naively think that as long as those black people walk the streets, they can cause trouble for us Big Wood? George said dismissively.

......

At the same time, in the villa on the other side, Martin also asked Zhou Ming the same question.

"Mr. Zhou Ming, now that the black people are facing racial discrimination, I think we should take the next step, otherwise no matter how we march, we will not be able to hurt the Big Wood family. Martin said.

Zhou Ming said: "In fact, if you can't get hurt, it's not just about talking, the key depends on how we do it." ”

Martin nodded: "I understand what you mean, Mr. Zhou Ming, in fact, we have all tried in the past parades against the Big Wood family, and we deliberately selected the real estate area of the Big Wood family for the parade, but it was also ineffective." ”

"George Square, have you been to this place in particular?" Zhou Ming asked.

Martin was stunned for a moment and asked, "Isn't George Square a relatively prosperous business district? Whether it is the city council or the state council, there are many people with industries there, wouldn't it be nice to rush to march there?"

"What's not so good? The march was a spontaneous act of the black community, and it didn't have any political leanings, and if it did, it was also anti-racist political leanings. Zhou Ming told Martin, "And the commercial area will always be more sensitive than the residential area, because most business needs a stable environment, and if there are demonstrations in one place for three days, I don't believe how many shops will be willing to be there." ”

"In addition, the houses in the residential areas are already bought, and it is not easy to sell, and the cycle is generally long, while in contrast, most of the shops are rented, and the Big Wood family renews the lease every month in order to pursue profits, so that his cycle will become very short, and it will be easier to produce results. ”

Zhou Ming continued: "And with the departure of companies and shops, it will be easy to take more people away, because everyone needs to go to work, so since there are no jobs here, people will naturally choose to leave." ”

Martin suddenly understood: "That's true, if you start from the business circle, it is the best and most direct entry point." ”

At the end of the question, Martin changed the subject: "But the Big Wood family is very large, and the march in George Square can really affect his income, but it still can't really hurt them, right?"

Zhou Ming smiled: "If the parade in George Square alone can defeat the Great Wood family, then such a family can't become the royal family of Itley, right?" So the parade in George Square is only the first step, and our most important step is to complete it through financial means." ”

"So Mr. Mayor, just do as I say, and I won't let you down. Zhou Ming said.

Martin nodded, then picked up the phone in front of Zhou Ming and dialed the number of the black group, explaining what Zhou Ming had arranged.
