Its not just in the states, it happened in the Czech Republic earlier this month also http://www.melbourne.indymedia.org/news/2005/08/94131.php http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/2005/07/30/1153931-ap.html The fact remains that civil rights violations are becoming more and more prevalent in the states and it seems like we americans just seem to tolerate them. I've been around the world and seen lots of wonderful places to live but, I still love my country, it's a shame to see so many of it's citizens allowing this to go on without even the slightest protest. We have become a nation of sheep. On Monday, August 22, 2005, at 01:55 PM, Cory O'Brien wrote:
