Re: Iraq-style Checkpoints put the "occupied" in Occupied DC

It is YUPPIES who settle in someone else's neighborhoods and scream for the cops everytime someone drinks a beer on their front porch.

Settlers in history are distinguished from immigrants by their reliance on military force and quick access to an invader's army to overwhelm and dominate indigenous inhabitants.

Latino Immigrants cannot call upon the Salvadoran, Mexican, Colombian, or other such armies to evict rivals and conquer territory for settlement! For from it, today's Latino immigrants are the descendants of thsoe who survived a ruthless invasion by Europeann settlers armed with biological as well as conventional weapons.

Yuppies, by comparison, can and do rely on urban police forces to drive away African-American, Latino, and other competotors for land and homes.

You have a strange way of describing moving.
So have you lived at the same address your entire life?
Or have you ever "settled in someone else's neighborhood?"
