Is this Walker guy for real? He doesn't even mention Iraq -- and he
wants to pretend writing a real article on human rights abuses.
He also blithely assumes that all the 10 or 100 dead had been shot by
the police. Looking at the videos and re****ts, they or most of them
were probably killed by hoodlums attacking shops, restaurants and
people on the streets.
