-Caveat Lector-
Is there anybody here that agrees with me that the New World Order
signifies something sinister? If so, protest in every way possible the
building of new prisons, super-max prisons and the death penalty!
Whether or not you think that people may deserve their penalties, keep
in mind that you or someone you love could be next! And going to prison
(even for decades) these days no longer means that it is within the
realm of a proper sentence!.
