Work 4 Peace,Hold All Life Sacred,Eliminate Violence! I am on my mobile version of the door-to-door, going town-to-town holding readings/gatherings/discussions of my book "But What Can I Do?" This is my often neglected blog mostly about my travels since 9/11 as I engage in dialogue and actions. It is steaming with my opinions, insights, analyses toward that end of holding all life sacred, dismantling the empire and eliminating violence while creating the society we want ALL to thrive in

the ocean wall

I spend the morning giving rides to people and then head to the beach where we have extended the 'wall' far into the ocean.

see how far out this wall extends into the ocean? it's at least 40 feet - this is low tide. immigration police patrol up and down the beach yelling at people to get out of the water when they're too close to the wall. as if anyone could venture beyond that surf - at least anyone who would survive

look closely - altho the gaps look wide they're probably close to an inch maybe. beyond the wall see the rolls of barbed wire? about 5'wide and 4' tall - JUST in case one makes it over the wall from this side, they will tumble into rolls of barbed wire. then look beyond the barbed wide and see the second wall for those who happened to crash thru the barbs and onto the ground then can what, run to the next wall??? crazy

the beautifying of something so ugly
