...I feel a lot safer.

...No one gives the world more cause to live in fear than the United States government...no one.

...how come I never got interviewed? Wasn't I enough of a threat? I sat in a cafe here and overheard four American dolls describing an Iraqi terrorist sent to Mexico to wreak havoc on the American community here, a petition drive for signatures was held in the central park to get rid of me...a delegation went to the prosecutor for the state here and complained that I was being allowed by the Mexican government to wreak terror too...letters were sent to the State Department and the American Embassy in Mexico City asking that I be arrested immediatrely..that's I'd already run over and tried to kill one American...did the gringos have to wait till THEY got run over? A steady stream of terrified Americans made their way to the American Consul's office here wanting to know how come I was allowed to roam the streets free and worse...how come I was still allowed to drive my dangerous Bourbon which still has the dent left on the hood by the head of one democracy loving son of Benjamin Franklin, just before he went under and I drove over him...why wasn't this Weapon of Pedestrian Destruction taken away from me?

So how come I'm not taken in for questioning? Am I being discriminated against? Hells bells the consul told me I was making trouble for myself by writing as I do...that the embassy in Mexico City was reading my dangerous rants...what MORE does a fellow have to DO?

It even says IRAQI on my American passport..."come and get me copper"!
