Kensington Market and Human Rights Violations

      What is your name 'Kefer'?  Where are your papers 'Kefer'?  These are the questions Stephen Biko was asked the night he was tortured to death by the 'White' South African Police Force.

  In Arizona today, it is now illegal for a Latino Male or Woman to walk the streets without their papers (identification).  A man of Latino descent is obligated, by law, to carry their identification 24/7/ 365 days a year.  Gestapo, some would say.

  In Toronto, Ontario, Canada the same is true, based on a courts' decision. In fact, the Toronto Police Force have so stringently defined the law, that Pot smokers are TACKLED by the Police when they are suspected, or known to be in possession of 1 gram of Cannibus, as had happened earlier today in Kensington Park, Toronto.

  Didn't North America learn from the injustice that had occurred when Rodney King was beaten by the L.A.P.D?  Didn't people around the World learn from the injustice that had occurred the night Stephen Biko was tortured to death because he was 'Black'?  These are blatant human rights infringements.  In 1492 Europe wouldn't fight against the Gestapo of the Spanish Inquisition.  Is this the road we're heading towards?
