Before You disagree THINK about it! This is M.I.A's BORN FREE which was recently officially banned from youtube... kind of an odd decision considering all the crap you can find on there! It is controversial but only because it gives an accurate depiction of the capability of human IGNORANCE!!! EDUCATE yourselves please!!!
M.I.A, Born Free from ROMAIN-GAVRAS on Vimeo.
Hope you took something from it!
Also take a look at what Shakira an intelligent activist had to say on the subject!!!

National Uproar over law SB1070 aka The Legalization of Racial Profiling!
As you may have gathered from my name I am an American Hispanic, and I am one of the many who have been deeply saddened by the choices policy makers in this potentially wonderful country have been making. Choices that will and are leading to mistrust and divide, instead of uniting the people who call this country home. I agree that we DO have a problem with illegal immigration but it is not a problem that can be fixed by using indiscriminate ignorant force and NO ONE answer can solve it. It is a shame that the educated Americans are supporting a law that promotes racial profiling without taking into consideration that although many undocumented LABORERS are Hispanic all are not, so whats with the singling out of one group? Or that it would also cause prejudiced notions against an entire group of people, because if I didn't speak all you'd see was a brown skinned person who speaks Spanish, so automatically under this new law I'm suspect; yet I was born and raised here, I am as American as they come. This is the same way by small discriminating laws that all of the worlds great GENOCIDES have happened the Holocaust for example. I always invite who ever reads this blog to Think4Yourselves and research every subject so that you can better formulate your own opinions, but I think we can all agree that this law is a stepping stone for outright Racism and more laws like this would make living in this country as a Hispanic unbearable and considering we are the backbone of this country legal or illegal it wouldn't be in it's best interest.

Questioning Obama's Politics
As I've mentioned before our new beloved president Mr.Barack Obama has since taking office been very intriguing to say the least and although he signed the polemic "Health Care Bill" which was obviously an amazing feat on paper he has shown to share more and more similarities with our old friend Bush. Quite an unnerving quality considering he was "the man for change". An example of such would be his approval of the Patriot Act (http://think4yourselves.blogspot.com/2010/03/modern-day-slavery.html) when it was one of the things he campaigned against while in the running. Now I know some of you can't get over how superficially amazing he seems at first glance, it's almost as if everyone's enamored with the idea of him and not who he actually is, so I've taken it upon myself to open your eyes to the reality, now this is not to say he doesn't possess any good qualities such as the ability to apologize when he commits a mistake but like all "Ethical" people, they must be kept in check in order to continue their positive influence and we as citizens must demand that, so lets take a closer look at his politics.. shall we??

WikiLeaks just released this
WikiLeaks
"WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad -- including two Reuters news staff. Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-site, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded. For further information please visit the special project website" www.collateralmurder.com.
