speaking of revolutions... has anyone read either of matthew bracken's novels? i'm not a really big reader, but these were great stories - especially for the libertarian culture. his second book, titled "domestic enemies: la reconquista," talks in great detail about the gradual loss of the southwest - WY, MT, and ID were tired of their illegal alien problems, they passed english only laws and began deporting illegals out of their states. in retaliation, a corrupt and la raza influenced NM state government passed 'espanol solemente' laws. it's frightening how believable the series of events in his stories are. they're long books, but i recommend them.
