BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

Being a Human Being Tom Leonard for Mordechai Vanunu not to be complicit not to accept everyone else is silent it must be alright not to keep one’s mouth shut to hold onto one’s job not to accept public language as cover and decoy not to put friends and family before the rest of the world not to say I am wrong when you know the government is wrong not to be just a bought behaviour pattern to accept the moment and fact of choice I am a human being and I exist a human being and a citizen of the world responsible to that world – and responsible for that world

I am a human being
and I exist

a human being
and a citizen of the world

responsible to that world
– and responsible for that world
