What Makes a Goon?
What makes a goon?
Strutting in uniforms
With body armour and masks.
What makes a goon?
Behind their shields
With their guns and batons.
What makes a goon?
Following orders
Mindlessly dispensing violence.
What makes a goon?
Arm of the State
Merchants of terror.
What makes a goon?
Beating heads
Stifling protest.
What makes a goon?
Teargas and bullets
Terror and power
What makes a goon?
Mindless zombies
Faceless thugs.
What makes a goon?
Expressionless
Emotionless.
What makes a goon?
Instruments of tyranny
Never questioning.
What makes a goon?
Unquestioning
Vehicles of oppression.
What makes anybody want to give up their individuality, their ability to reason, and become an enemy of the people?

And some people actually join up to be goons using force to oppress people.
