New rules

[sabotabby]

Let me get this straight:

You can be jailed without being charged with anything.
You do not have the right to know why you have been detained.
You cannot be tortured, so the torturers will simply change the definition of torture.
You can be executed on the basis of testimony that you've given while you are being tortured enthusiastically questioned.
You can be executed on the basis of evidence given by someone else, while that person was being tortured.
If your lawyer wants to defend you, he or she has to run it by the government first.
We can hold you as long as we like. "Until hostilities cease" is a funny phrase in the context of perpetual war against abstract concepts.

I feel like I'm repeating myself most of the time.

This is so wrong.

Re: Here's the link:

I didn't realize it was a white supremacist site. I simply listed the first link. I didn't pay attention to what site it was. Now I realize why sabotabby complained about it - I didn't know who 'National Vanguard' was. I do now.

When yahoo! search came up with the list of search results, I listed the first one. This is just a case of oversight.

On the other hand, consider this:

It's necessary to pay attention to what these people are doing in order to guarantee that we can educate people against them. For example, no one paid attention to what Hitler promised to do in 'Mein Kampf'. We in the Left need to be watching what these people do. So, in all truth, some of us should be watching what these people are writing and saying.

For example, if you look at my most recent entry, I found out on the web that there is now a white power version of the Olsen twins. I'm going to share the article with my students, who are largely of color. I intend to further butress my assertion with them that they need to be exceedingly cynical towards the media.
