Tunnel from Mexico to the U.S.

January 30th, 2006 by Laura Moncur in News
When they took the fourth amendment, I was silent because I don’t deal drugs. When they took the sixth amendment, I kept quiet because I know I’m innocent. When they took the second amendment, I said nothing because I don’t own a gun. Now they’ve come for the first amendment, and I can’t say anything at all.

Cross-Border TunnelThey have found the longest cross-border tunnel ever made and have arrested a Mexican citizen in connection with it.

So many of our freedoms have been impinged upon in the name of the “War on Drugs” or the “War on Terror” that it doesn’t surprise me that it was a profitable option to tunnel under the border. If we had taken a different approach in the Eighties, would we have a tunnel now? If drugs were legal and easily accessible, would we be living in a different world today? It makes me wonder.

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.
