all over the world of the far-right (Nazi) agenda...this has been planned for a long time and I think that America has been a big part of this.

to see a rise in racial intolerance again. With the MLK era, racists everywhere had to take notice. Some saw the light and renounced racism. Before the MLK era it was Nazi Germany and the horrendous lessons learned from extreme racial prejudice. The Holocaust did open my eyes like nothing else.

Now we have, for example, my two brothers who are former peace-loving hippies who can casually toss around the blatantly racist term "raghead."

Whereas I used to venture into Mexico (at times by myself) I don't think it would be wise as a white guy to do this any more.
