Homeland security...
begins at home.
Well, duh!
Ha, I believe home security really begins
in the other person's home,
the one whose home we've dropped bombs on,
the one whose resources we've squandered,
time and time again,
the one who only wants
what we have.
And of course,
we will fight to the death of us all
to keep it all for ourselves.
Homeland security
is a farce until
we realize what we've done to
the homes of others,
and learn to respect and believe
in equality,
and that we are all
guests on this planet,
not its owners.

This message was brought to you
by one who believes that security
always begins at home,
and each of us lives in the same home,
Planet Earth.
