57. Since WWII
Edited on Thu Jul-15-10 06:03 PM by AsahinaKimi
People fought against the Nazi's and against the evils of Fascism.

To see it or other forms of it, growing here in America and to watch the ignorance from a failed education system is alarming.

Corporations needs over individual rights..

Even overt Racism regaining ground once again.

One can only shake their head and wonder what happened.

When a Presidency is handed over to a man by the Supreme Court, and taken from the hands of the voters....


When we are sent into a war on lies, and for profit of things like Oil that never really belonged to us....

When the line between the separation of Church and State have been blurred...

When the very Bill of Rights created to protect America has been cut back to allow things

like torture, wire taping,...the rights to have a trial by ones peers has been taken away...


Things have gone very wrong here.


People should be angry at the people who have encouraged

these things to happen once again and in this country, of all places.
