"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
International Apartheid in Roswell
"It's precisely this sort of immorality--the elevation of state control or belligerent nationalism over common decency towards peaceful people--that has been put on display recently in Roswell, New Mexico, with the arrest, jailing, expulsion and exile of Karina Acosta, a pregnant high schooler who was ready to graduate in the spring, because the immigration law, which is nothing but Jim Crow imposed at the level of nationality, forbids her from attending an Estadounidense school, and ?Student Resource Officer? Charlie Corn, the pig-in-residence at Roswell High School, decided to take the opportunity of a minor traffic violation [to] pull her out of class, arrest her, and then snitch on her to La Migra, so that they could jail her and force her out of her home, away from her family, and back into her place." A government school does its part to enforce the state's segregation of the untermenschen from the privileged.
