this is what we are...

by Morgan D Hafele

whether or not you will admit
to it...
we are all terrorists...

just because you don't beat the child
doesn't make your hand clean

next time you put on a pair of shoes
or a shirt
or eat off of that nifty plate
or dress your child

ask yourself
was the money you paid
worth the price of a slave?

Author's Note: it's a work in progress... just had to get it off of my chest... agree or disagree, i take it as truth.

Ouch! Yes we are all part of this vicious cycle, especially when we decide what to purchase/wear/etc. I was outsourced in the fashion industry many years ago and it continues... MFS

I'm not convinced 'we' could all be defined as terrorists, but I'm fairly sure any impartial observer would say that we behave in ways that make us obvious, and perhaps, valid targets in the minds of the same.
