Indybay: On the evening of November 11th, participants in the first international solidarity action to take place on both sides of a border, the No Borders Camp, dismantled the camp and marched west on either side of what has become a 15 foot wall dividing Mexicali (Mexico) and Calexico (United States), converging on the port of entry to protest the militarized border. The demonstration was peaceful until the US Border Patrol, without giving an order to disperse or other warning, brutally attacked those on the US side with point-blank rounds of pepper-spray pellets, batons, and swarm tactics, leaving several badly injured. This event was the final action of the No Borders Camp, and came after a week of peaceful confrontation and resistance to the border system. read full story / add a comment

I am an angry white male, I don't like diversity. What diversity means to me is loss of jobs for me, I am a young college student studying engineering and I went into a job interview head to head with a african american, I was better qualified than him, I had foreign language skills, and a GPA .5 higher than his. I lost just because the company had a plethora of white and asian male engineers and needed a black engineer to showcase to the world that they "celebrate diversity". All I'm saying is I can sympathize with some right wing groups. I'm not an uneducated red neck, a psycho escaped from the pedententury, I'm just a voting polically active young white american male who is concerned and angry at what our country is becoming. Thank you for reading my viewpoint. :) read full story / add a comment
