Unbridled Capitalism of Jerry Seinfeld and Eric Garner

In case you don’t remember, Eric Garner was choked to death when he was resisting arrest. He had the audacity to buy cigarettes wholesale and sell them retail. This type of lawless free-market capitalism that tries to go without submitting to the proper government permitting, laws and taxation cannot be allowed.

Mr. Garner didn’t submit to his arrest by the fine, upstanding law men of the NYPD and they had no choice but to choke him to death.

Jerry Seinfeld, the famous comedian similarly tried to help his children run their lemonade stand. Like Garner, Seinfeld didn’t seek the proper permits and licenses. Personally, I’m shocked that Seinfeld didn’t have his larynx crushed until he was lifeless like Garner. Comrades, we must crush unfettered capitalism!

I say all the previous sarcastically. It almost makes me cry to see Garner choked to death. He was murdered. The cops who murdered him should be executed. He should have the right to sell loose cigarettes. And Seinfeld should be able to set up a lemonade stand without government harassment. What we have in this country is outright fascism.

I’m not insinuating that Seinfeld wasn’t choked to death because he’s famous or white. I’m sure he did exactly as the officers said to do. If you do exactly what they say, their egos are stroked; their power trip is a comfortable one, and they will certainly let you live. But the only one Christians are supposed to obey unquestioningly is Christ. We don’t always get the luxury of living a peaceful life.

Garner would still be alive if he had done what the officers said to do. But his attempted arrest was unjust and evil. He will stand before God having not sinned in selling loose cigarettes or resisting his attempted kidnapping. I’m not saying it was wise, and maybe there was some bad luck that he died (though I don’t believe in luck), but the police were enforcing unjust laws, because that’s what cops do.
