Never let it be said that I was a racist...

..but I don't agree with this shit at all.

The Gist: "Welcome to America, illegal! Here, live on my taxpayers dollars, and don't worry about back taxes. Here, sign this, and you'll be legal in 24 hours, regardless of if or how your background check comes back. Gang member? No probalo. Don't speak any English? That's fine too. Here's a lawyer for you. Nonono, my citizens were kind enough to pay for him for you."

This video is in .wmv format, so you'll need Window's Media Player or something similar to watch it. Sorry, that's just how it was sent to me.

What the Holy Christ is this bullshit?

There's something seriously fucked up with our legislature. I'm seriously thinking about becoming like, a Japanese national or something. All this shit going around. I'm really not proud to be American anymore, and that's depressing coming from a guy who's served his country.

I don't know what's driven us to this, or why it's even being considered. Is our country REALLY that messed up? Just...watch the video. It pissed me off enough to put it in the post this time, instead of the title. Speaking of: I believe that people should have the right to come to America. Legally. After learning FUCKING ENGLISH. And I feel that Illegals, having proven themselves competent (including learning English, see a trend?), should be given the chance to become legal. But not like this. Not like this. This is just absurd. So much so that words fail me. Let it be said that this is one of the few things that has rendered me nearly speechless, and that takes alot to do, my friends.

Goddamn you, America. What are you doing to yourself? Why do you want your own people to hate you so badly?

Never again.

Never. Never again will I live in an apartment. As I write this, my upstairs neighbor is blaring his stereo so loud it's rattling the walls. And this seems to be common in any apartment I've lived in. Some dicksuck decides he's the only motherfucker in the entire area and thinks he can just do as he pleases. Apparently, these people are also deaf. Sadly, as I live here, I am not at liberty to complain in person, as it is against apartment policy for me to even be living here. (Too many people living in the same apartment is sharply frowned upon.)

This isn't the first time they've done this, either. It's beginning to be a daily thing since school's let out. And it was daily during Christmas Vacation.

Tell me seriously. Who the fuck do you think you are? Do you only think of yourself? ARE YOU THAT FUCKING RETARDED? Goddamn. I question every day what makes me hate people so much, and every day they give me a new answer. I try not to be a violent person, but sometime I feel the only solution is to walk up to these people and make them swallow their teeth. I just...I don't know. I want to know where in the gene-pool that we lost the abilities of rationale and common sense.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go stab this moron in the throat.
I mean, sit here and brood. I don't feel like going to prison, really.

Just for the hell of it.

Y'know, sometimes I just post new shit so that I have something else to read when I stop by to check my messages. It's a lot like talking just to hear yourself talk.

I'm guilty of that. A lot.

I think that comes from not a fear but more of a discomfort in silence.* For example:
the power went out for about 8 hours the other day and without music or anything to break the silence, I just about went mad. So, I would try to start random conversations with Raven just to hear something going on. There are very few times I don't have some kind of mental distraction going on, be it music, movies, video games, or conversation. Anything audible. I just have a real problem with silence. I even play music when I sleep, so if you thought that was one of the few times, you'd be wrong.

So, yeah, random bullshit posts like this are for my own viewing gratification, just in case you were wondering if there was anything pertinent in this post. (No, there really isn't) And now that I've set up my playlist for the night, I'm off to bed.
