Check this out. Border Partol let this guy:
Into America when he showed up at the northern border “carrying a homemade sword, a hatchet, a knife, brass knuckles and a chain saw stained with what appeared to be blood.” It was later discovered that (surprise!) he had just come from a killing spree!
Bill Anthony, spokesperson for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, explained the situation thusly:
“Nobody asked us to detain him,” Anthony said. “Being bizarre is not a reason to keep somebody out of this country or lock them up. … We are governed by laws and regulations, and he did not violate any regulations.”
Being bizarre is not a reason to keep sombody out of this country. Yes, we know. In fact, it appears that being bizarre practically qualifies you as a federal judge! Of course, bringing nail clippers on a flight from Cleveland to Des Moines will get you summarily executed at the airport. But hey, your psycho ass is welcome in America, if you don’t mind walking! And if you’re white!
I feel so safe.

The myth of security is just another cloud for racism, and economic subjugation.
