Categorized under Signs of the Sixth Sun , Violencia | Tags: Buddhism, Burma/Myanmar, Power to the People

Immigration Orange has a specific example of what we often take for granted in general, but should not—those dark deeds that corporations do to get us our Juicy Fresh Daily.

The Context of Corruption; A Backdrop of Oppression
Categorized under Violencia | Tags: Mexico, Oaxaca, Ruiz, The Petroleum Wars
THERE IS A CONTEXT AND A BACKGROUND and a larger picture to many of today's events that those in power would not have us access.

David Rivas Morales Beat to Death by Crowd
Categorized under Violencia | Tags: Fear, The Haunted Land
NOWHERE IN THIS ARTICLE is David Rivas Morales' ethnicity mentioned, so it must not be Mexican American, and even if so, that surely did not come into play in this mob beat-down and murder near the border of Texas and Mexico. It's just one more case of a car bumping... $MTEntryExcerpt$>

I look around and it seems it's okay with most, what happened in L.A. I am stunned. And between the vile comments I've seen and the justifications, the othering of Mexicans, and the silence of good people, I honestly feel a bit ill. I'm maybe gonna take a tiny... $MTEntryExcerpt$>

MAN. I don't even know what to say. Horrible. As if we haven't been watching enough senseless death lately. Of course we like it much less "over here" than "over there." I'm guessing the reaction and news cycle will be furious and intense and massive, and overwhelm the spectre... $MTEntryExcerpt$>
