Artist's Comments

A wave of small minded intolerance has swept this once decent nation. People who do not live on American lands are no longer seen as human. Voices of opposition to unnecessary bloodshed are seen as evil. People who do not accept "In God We Trust" are seen as threats to life as we know it...

I am ill over the thought that 6% of the world has become so convinced of it's self righteousness, that it is willing to destroy their own good values in order to indulge their fears, their greed, and their most petty misconceptions. Open the newspapers and read. What America has done in the last two years goes far beyond a war or the toppling of a dictator's statue. Several recent actions by the current administration have been incompetent, inhuman, hypocritical and extremely dangerous.

Question your government - dissent is the greatest gift of the patriot - using it means you give a damn. Do not just give into fear and hatred - that is what the terrorists wanted from us...

cant say I find artistc value there... doesn't quite fit your title, with some hard work (artwork) this could carry a realy funny tone.
Excellently effective, as usual! I really think this sort of poster needs to go up in places like airports, and other places that involve active racial profiling...
Make a print and i will put them in places like airports... and so can you.
Correct. Both about the fine line between patriotism and racism; and using your mind, rather than letting the government use theirs for you.

Be fearless. Fear leads to panic, and it's panic that kills. Your inhibitions are a hazard.
Excellent. You once again leave me in 'aw'.
This is exactly it. I was in Spain when the war started - their government at the time was just another example of officials going against the will of the people to justify their own interests.
