You never hear about hippies going on a shooting spree.

A neo-nazi guy who formed an anti-immigrant militia in Arizona shoots dead four people (includes two children) in a domestic dispute, then shoots himself.  Gilbert Arizona....if you've seen Gilbert, not exactly a surprise.

You never hear about hippies going on a shooting spree.


Anyway, Reuters reports that according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, "he advocated deadly force to stop Mexicans from crossing into the United States illegally, and favored laying a minefield along the U.S. border."

You know, the border between South Korea and North Korea is mined, walled off and monitored 24/7/365, to prevent a violent invasion.

In Israel they have a wall that is guarded and separates Palestinians from Israelis, so that violent attacks from Hamas can be prevented.

In America, Conservatives have built a wall and want mine the border with Mexico, patrolled by predator drones, to prevent economic refugees from entering the US.

I say go watch the movie, The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada and readjust your abstract fears.
