Mother was told her children were beaten at Mexican military barracks

23. If you did know anything, you'd realize, along with so many Democrats why the people of Lat. America

believe racist, rapacious, greedy, murderous people should not be allowed to plunder and destroy their countries, force their people to work as near slaves in ferocious, destructive conditions, while their own land is torn apart, waters poisoned, livestock and human beings killed, crops destroyed, their markets flooded with cheap, US-taxpayer-subsidized products like corn, beans, rice, and their own hard efforts at farming, self sustaining, handed down to them from their ancestors finally are useless in supporting them, and millions lose their livelihoods, and live under the gun of local powerful landowners and their right-wing paramilitaries.

If you actually knew about US history in Latin America you wouldn't attack people who defend the right of Latin Americans to their own sovereignty, and security, beyond the reach and violence of US corporate greed and self-interest, backed up in too many cases by US government efforts on behalf of the predators.

If you knew what other DU'ers know, you would be unable to attack them. Totally obvious.
