   Isn’t this interesting. Buzzfeed posts up a photo of the young Rmoney protesting in support of the Vietnam-era draft.

   Protesting in support of something he will claim an exemption from, in order to not have to be the war fodder that so many other young men his age were. Easy to protest something that you’ll never have to do yourself, right?

   This is just crazy:

   Raúl Héctor Castro is 96 years old, a former Arizona governor, and a former United States Ambassador to El Salvador, Bolivia and Argentina. He was born in Mexico, and is a United States citizen. And he has been stopped and detained by the U.S. Border Patrol 3 times.

   They were profiling this guy then and they’ll keep on profiling people.
