“In the wake of the Court’s decision, the final holdouts in New London were given the boot and the bulldozers rolled in, leveling the neighborhood. But then nothing else happened. The redevelopment scheme fell apart and the project died. If you visit New London today, you’ll find that the razed neighborhood still stands empty, a depressing monument to the folly of “expert” government planning.” Economic development.

“I’m not against immigration, I just think that people should have to wait in line forever before they can legally immigrate.” Borders are an injustice, an imposition, a usurpation, and a callous inhumanity. They seek out, attack and destroy everything that is precious and respect nothing that is loving or compassionate in human life. It is unconscionable that anyone should be expected to get ground through the gears of a monster bureaucratic machine like this in order to prove the validity of living their lives. Borders and citizenship and border-control laws and government permission-slips have no value compared to a human life, and they deserve no notice except to be trampled underfoot. Everyone should be free to immigrate without restriction and all currently documented and undocumented immigrants should be completely free from government scrutiny or nativist shaming. #NoBorders #NoDeportations #NotOneMore #AbolishICE

The United States government repeatedly performed torturous, potentially lethal experimentation on human subjects during and after World War II. The design of the tests classified soldiers by race; men of all races were affected, but men of color were disproportionately used as guinea pigs. #ACovenantWithDeathAndAnAgreementWithHell #AbolishWar #AbolishTheUnitedStates – – – cut here – – – As a young U.S. Army soldier during World War II, Rollins Edwards knew better than to refuse an assignment. When officers led him and a dozen others into a wooden gas chamber and locked the door, he didn’t complain. None of them did. Then, a mixture of mustard gas and a similar agent called lewisite was piped inside. “It felt like you were on fire,” recalls Edwards, now 93 years old. “Guys started screaming and hollering and trying to break out. And then some of the guys fainted. And finally they opened the door and let us out, and the guys were just, they were in bad shape.” . . . For the first time, NPR tracked down some of the men used in the race-based experiments. And it wasn’t just African-Americans. Japanese-Americans were used as test subjects, serving as proxies for the enemy so scientists could explore how mustard gas and other chemicals might affect Japanese troops. Puerto Rican soldiers were also singled out. White enlisted men were used as scientific control groups. Their reactions were used to establish what was “normal,” and then compared to the minority troops. All of the World War II experiments with mustard gas were done in secret and weren’t recorded on the subjects’ official military records. Most do not have proof of what they went through. They received no follow-up health care or monitoring of any kind. And they were sworn to secrecy about the tests under threat of dishonorable discharge and military prison time, leaving some unable to receive adequate medical treatment for their injuries, because they couldn’t tell doctors what happened to them.

Borders are injustices, impositions and usurpations. They deserve no notice at all except to trample upon them, ridicule them, and dance right across them. This is one of the best things I have seen, and this here:* “Un grupo de personas con banderas de EE.UU. y carteles pidiendo deportaciones se manifestaba en contra de los inmigrantes. Pero de repente apareció un mexicano y les arruino la protesta.” is perhaps the most glorious two lines of journalism I have ever read in my life. #NoBorders #NoDeportations #Not1More #AbolishICE #DanceInTheFaceOfNativists
