this is really tearing me up. the *poing* hates travelling, and i take to it much more easily, but i, too, don't want to go to the US anymore. and i don't look arab either. but, i don't trust the "homeland security" people at all, and being caucasian is just not the same as having civil rights, you know? i am weird in many ways. so a part of me is afraid, and the other part doesn't want to go because i am caucasian, and can't abide that my fellow human beings of swarthier skin are treated like second class people, or worse, are persecuted and abused like maher arar.
