In the United States
First they came for the Mexicans
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Mexican

Then they came for the Guatemalan's
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Guatemalan

Then they came for the Reporters
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Reporter

Then they came for the Kurds
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Kurd

Then they came for DULL
And there was no one left

Dull the fantasy world you are living in is scary. Do you know the difference between right and wrong? Dull here is one for ya.

WHAT ICE REVEALS ABOUT ITSELF WHEN IT DETAINS U.S. CITIZENS
https://theappeal.org/what-ice-reveals-about-itself-when-it-detains-u-s-citizens/
Here's another
After more than 3 weeks, ICE releases U.S. citizen from custody

Here are a bunch more.
ICE Is Dangerously Inaccurate

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/12/opinion/ice-raids.html


I was told Saturday morning I "look like a Salazar". My ancestry is English, German & Irish, I think the woman that said it may herself be Hispanic. But I'm not. I've heard 4 times before that I look Hispanic. Once was definitely from a Mexican. So, if they can't tell, I don't trust ICE to be able to tell, either.

Like Alberto Salazar?

He looks very Swedish to me. Oh. He's from Cuba.
But I'm sure that ICE will take appropriate actions in that case as well.

Could that be because the children in different states are not taught the same things about the same subject.
NYT - Two States. Eight Textbooks. Two American Stories.
American history textbooks can differ across the country, in ways that are shaded by partisan politics.


The textbooks cover the same sweeping story, from the brutality of slavery to the struggle for civil rights. The self-evident truths of the founding documents to the waves of immigration that reshaped the nation.

The books have the same publisher. They credit the same authors. But they are customized for students in different states, and their contents sometimes diverge in ways that reflect the nation’s deepest partisan divides.

Hundreds of differences — some subtle, others extensive — emerged in a New York Times analysis of eight commonly used American history textbooks in California and Texas, two of the nation’s largest markets.

This is, however, not new news. Aron Ra's been speaking about it for at least a few years already.

It costs taxpayers huge sums of money too because of the very short press runs.
