By John Zmirak, The Stream - The recent events on the U.S. border have been manipulated by media, and exploited by grandstanding politicians and pastors. So much so, that I am actually hesitant to make explicit statements. I feel as if that would almost be pointless, like meeting a person who’s deaf and simply shouting at him more loudly... Instead I would like to ask a series of questions.... When Barack Obama used tear gas against rock-throwing immigrants, media never complained. How are things different today?...
