You know, there has been something really,
really REALLY bothering me, but it seems so insignificant that
it seems ridiculous to talk about it. But here it is, anyway.
The last time (around August) that I flew
on an airplane (to Houston to visit my sister), I was, along
with everyone else around me, subjected to an absolutely HUMILIATING
series of experiences. Besides being scanned I don't remember
how many times, we had to stand in a long security line and TAKE
OUR SHOES OFF!!! This just BOTHERS ME!!! Take your shoes off!
It's like the people being herded into the concentration camps
and having to take off their clothes - their shoes!!! I have
even heard of strip searches at airports. I'm sure it is more
common than I realize. I happened to have a safety pin in the
waistband of my pants and this set off the hand held scanner.
I mean REALLY!!!! One cannot move unless one is first stripped
bare (just about).
My friend who is from Peru travels a lot more
than I do and he told me that on a recent trip he was stopped
by a "security" guard and grilled as to whether or
not he was a "good American". I mean REALLY!!!
I can't say anything very profound about this,
it just PISSES ME OFF!!!! What RIGHT do "these people"
whoever they are, have to search and humiliate people in the
name of "security"? And what about the millions of
people everyday who just shrug and go through it without protest?
BAAAAA BAAAAAA BAAAAAA
The electric fence is gradually being moved
in closer and closer. When it was way out on the borders, we
thought we were free to roam around at will. But it gets moved
in more and more each day, until we will find ourselves huddled
up together, waiting for market day.
BAAAA!
