Birdhouse In Your Soul

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?
