I'm a 1st generation Soviet/Ukranian immigrant. Yes, I'm legal and I'm a naturalized US citizen. I have seen the effects of communism first hand and I feel that the democrats want to take us down that terrible path.

I'm a nuclear/mechanical engineer and I do mostly power generation and alternative energy research. Currently back home in the People's Republic of NYC designing green building systems.

If you're stopping by from a "Drug War" thread, I know you don't believe me and this is the only reason I waste my time: After burying one of my closest friends pointlessly killed by this drug war and never hurt by the drugs themselves, I can no longer keep quiet. I speak for him and countless others like him killed by ignorance. Their deaths shall not be in vain.
