concertina wire atop border fencing between san diego
and tijuana, marking a major shift in approach along
a frequently violent stretch of the frontier separating
the two countries, where it actually marks the border

and teenage pregnancy is surprisingly low
federal authorities in the past have avoided using

of people legal or not, convicted of not
seeking the opportunity to make some progress
the american poultry lobby named save our chicks
said that their chickens are not free-range chickens
and are being held against their will and illegally
on what a save our chicks spokesman referred to as
'those damn southern chicken prison farms'
they want razor wire and all fencing down at once
'our chickens need their freedom too' he said
it's all about freedom
