The Scarlet Paper
A Woman is a Dangerous Thing To Waste...

On CNN this weekend, their was a report that illegal immigrants are using the method of identity theft to obtain jobs in the U.S. of A. Apparently this is a growing problem in Utah where a small girl's social security number was stolen to by a car and get a job by an ALIEN. Yes, I said Utah where 13 year old girls marry 60 year old men to be a part of their brainwashed tribe of sex slaves. However, that is a story for another time.

The problem I have with that story is that it shows how the media is working hard to make us fear the people across the border and Xenophobia can only work well if you can identify your own social group. So American is becoming even more white colored because the border that we are looking to secure is the Mexican border and all the people that we see as illegal immigrants on the television are brown.

As a matter of fact, President Bush has decided to put some of our already stretched National Guard on detail at the Mexican Border. Bush Expected to Order Thousands of Troops to Border.

Apparently all the Native Americans lacked when the Europeans invaded were a National Guard. With them protecting our borders, it leaves the INS or whatever department handles that today time to catch the illegals.

So far with the Bush administration, we have gone after the Middle Eastern people or at least people that wear a turban and talk with an accent (Sikh people, I mean you). Next we went after gay people because they were undermining the moral fabric of our society by demanding civil rights.
Now we are going after latino people and anyone here without the correct papers. Its only a matter of time before abortion and medical rights are taken away from women as pharmacies turn them away and claim they have the right to decide what medicines to dispense based on their religion NOT ON MEDICAL NECESSITY.

Remember Hitler? He was elected too. Nazi Germany didn't happen overnight and the Jews weren't demonized by a few. It took mass hysteria and apathy.

Remember that when the government is listening into your phone calls and looking at what library books you read. Remember that when they read your emails or have syware on your computer to see what you have been looking at (Charlie Sheen, be afraid, be very afraid.)

Remember that when things get worse, when housing prices are higher, gas prices are higher, the poor are poorer and the rich get tax cuts. Remember that when you are standing in line for public aid and there is no more or it has been privatized to corporations like Halliburton. Corps like them run our prison, here and abroad, and it is a matter of time before Social Security is taken over to buy us out of the debt that grows as I type. Remember that when they take your home, your car, your job is lost, your children are taken away in a draft, college was a precious dream, and you walk down the aisles of a SuperWalMart the size of a small city filled with food and clothing you can't afford to buy.

Now, I ask you. Are the Mexicans the enemy? Or are we treating the people within these borders in the same way we have been treating the people outside of our borders for years?

We are a third world country with Playstations.

Enjoy the fantasy.

It's time for reality.
