I admit it. The last comic was a bit dry and wordy, though it had its charms. Today you get some good old fashioned cartoon violence. Let us know which you prefer. Or you can be greedy and demand both.
This is also our first departure from anti-feminism. In my experience, anyone who manages to detach from one part of the matrix is likely to have detached from the rest, or at the least, won't throw a fit. Let us know if you enjoy these other anti-egalitarian topics too.
"Viva La Raza." I gather it means: "long live the [mestizo] race". SB 1070 is the Arizona bill that obliges police to check the citizenship of anyone already stopped for another reason. This law is unpopular because it may reduce affluent white access to low paid nannies and house cleaners.
As a young male, I am occasionally hassled by police. In weasel-words, I am profiled. If only I knew that being asked for my ID was one step away from getting Holocaust-ed. Ignoring the absurdity and hypocrisy, there's the insult. Our accusers imply that we - and we alone - are such monsters that we can't be trusted to exercise the slimmest self-preservation. Ingrates.
Yay! Arizona has always given police the right to demand identification if you are on public or business property. I found that out first-hand thirty years ago.
I suppose I could have complained about my rights being violated, but I'm too light-skinned to pull that one off.
