There is an element that profits from keeping us divided, and scared of one another. That way you wont notice that your rights and dignity are being stolen. People accept certain things now, that would have not been acceptable to earlier generations, like employers have the right to examine your body fluids and take hair samples, or that a company has the right, to penalize you, if you no longer wish to use thier product (i.e. cell phones), or that your public sports facility has declared water fountains, a health hazzard, so that the majority of people will buy thier bottled water.
They also profit greatly from you admiring people, for coming in an accepting substandard wages and living conditions. Thus making it easier to bring down everyone's wages, and greater profits for the ownership class. Jobs that used to support families, and build suburban communites, are now done by day laborers with no benefits. They cant afford homes, cars or other big ticket goods, available in healthy economies. I guess what it takes to be a "wonderful American" these days, is not to ask for rights, benefits, or decent working conditions.

There's a grand scheme in things since Martin L. King sign the civil rights act to credit cards, to over paid interest on homes, to Bush going into a war that wasn't suppose to happen spending 80million a month to 911 which was an inside job to people losing their jobs and having to now work for peanuts as a modern day slavery. The Institution Industrial Complex to having more African Americans in jail and this is a fact etc, I can go deep into this these are the things that have been happening over the past 30 years.

Nice catch Stavros, see just because we like sex don't mean we are not aware what the hell is going on around us and how crooked this govt is from police dept all the way up to congress!!!
Thank you Stavros. I will get that book.
"In the era of colorblindness, it is no longer socially permissible to use race, explicitly, as a justification for discrimination, exclusion, and social contempt. Yet, as legal star Michelle Alexander reveals, today it is perfectly legal to discriminate against convicted criminals in nearly all the ways that it was once legal to discriminate against African Americans. Once you’re labeled a felon, the old forms of discrimination—employment discrimination, housing discrimination, denial of the right to vote, denial of educational opportunity, denial of food stamps and other public benefits, and exclusion from jury service—are suddenly legal."

A set bail of $150,000 is set for Zimmerman. He will wear an ankle monitor and can chose to be out of state for safety reasons but law enforcement has to be aware and he has a curfew. New Update.

Thanks for the compliments! Here's a fact I ran across today. Since 1980, the state of California has built one new college campus, compared to building 21 new prisons. In 2011 California spend 5+ billion on higher education, compared to 9+ billions on prisons.
http://globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn....n-2/?hpt=hp_c1
Here in Ohio, there was a state plan to sell several state built prisons to privately run corporations. However, if did drop down to one. I read somewhere that the corporation buying the prison, was requesting a guarunteed 90% occupancy rate.
Minor related trivia. As I was filling my tire with air (cost $0.75), I read the posting on the machine. It said that putting foriegn coins or slugs in any vending machine was both a federal and a state crime. The federal punishment is up to 1 year in jail and/or a $5,000 fine. I wonder what such an offender would say, to others on the cell block, when they were asked, why they were locked up?

Here's new Photo of Zimmerman's head two small gashes that are not serious if they were he would of went to the hospital not end up in a police station 30 minutes later. the Police didn't see these as life threatening. Some thing fishy is going on here.

Re: 17yr old black kid shot and killed for walking in white suburbia?
Wow so if caught you do time for .75cents in foreign money? So it goes from .75cents to $5,000 dollars? That is pure madness.
One college compared to 21 new prisons? Yeah you see where their energy lies, and they will set that up so people can go to jail. Take away jobs, then what else to turn to? See it's all a set up. No one in their fucking right might can justify this treachery this govt is on. They find it better to make more money with the prison than to educate people and help send that money to make jobs.
