I am a Fugitive From the Law…

In Arizona, that is.

I am guilty of looking and being Hispanic -although I am a natural born citizen.

But can you believe it? By simply entering the state, I am subject to search and seizure, even arrest if I forgot my wallet in my other pants.

Anyone who thinks this won’t keep myself and anyone even remotely Latino-looking out of the state is, well, white and from Arizona. And hey, blacks can be Latino so I would advise against them visiting the state as well.

Truth is, after denying Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we looked twice at the state, wondering its intentions and motivations. Now, we simply won’t look again at Camelback or the golfing in Scottsdale or John McCain (what did he get for his soul, I have to wonder).

We won’t look, no, and we won’t visit for that matter. ALL of us. And that’s not a small few.
