Colin forces one of these "memes" on me

Here’s the game:

1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.

Ok, let me see what’s sitting over here.  The only book on the table near the stack of this month’s magazines is Targeted: Homeland Security and the Business of Immigration by Deepa Fernandes, which I loaned to someone and just got back.

Page 123 says:

“Their underlying question is: who DHS could possibly be protecting from an eldery Baptist minister?

Dantica’s family sees no contradiction in the dual purpose of his visit.  He was fleeing Haiti out of a fear of death, but he was also visiting his family, thus fulfilling the stated reason on his visa.  Instead he met his death while in U.S. immigration custody.  There is mounting evidence that the incarceration that led to Dantica’s death had less to do with DHS viewing him as a threat to society than with his being Haitian.  Since Haitians began fleeing politcal violence and repression fifty years ago, there has always been a second tier of justice to deal with those who made it to the United States.”

Ah, national security and selective human rights, the inseparable Harry and Llyod of American political praxis.

Let me think for a second of who to tag.
