VIVA..uh...oh, forget it.

There is a revolution of sorts going on right now and some in this country is allowing it to happen. No matter where you land on the immigration issue, people that are not citizens of this country are trying to change us. Either it is the UN trying to tell us that we should bow down to the rest of the world or the Mexicans that say that North America is all theirs. Well Mexico, you can have Canada and California (since it will fall in the ocean someday anyway), but the rest is ours.

I have absolutely no problem with LEGAL immigrants. I do have problems with employers of this country exploiting the cheap labor of illegal immigrants. Yes, they are doing jobs that we won't do, but if the greedy employers would pay a decent wage to do that job, we would find an American to do it.

As far as the Flag issue, in America, you should be able to display, wave or otherwise display the American Flag as you see fit. You should not let a school principal tell you otherwise. You can display the Mexican flag if you wish, but it will mean nothing to us. If you are so proud of your flag, please, by all means, go back to country that flag represents and wave it till you puke.

And I understand that if you are new to the country, you may not be able to speak American (I think we should call it American and not English), but please, try to learn it and don't expect that we going to learn your language. If I were in your country, I would try to communicate with a translator of some kind and be grateful if I found someone that happened to speak American/English.

This country is on the brink of either a race or religious war. If that doesn't get us, there will be a class war. All have showed signs of starting. Who will win, who will lose, who is the enemy? Can it be stopped? I think that if everyone will stop and realize that their rights stop at my face and mine at theirs, maybe, just maybe we can all get along. Don't expect something because you are a certain color or race. "But you don't know how I feel or what I have been through". I don't care how bad you have had it (Katrina "victims"), get off your ass and do something to move your situation in a positve direction and quit your bitchin'.

Personally, I have had to pay, as the rest of the country has, almost 3 times what I used to pay for gas. That has a trickle down effect. Everything is going up...except my paycheck. It won't be long before it catches up with me, but am I complaining? No. I am doing what millions of Americans are doing, buying a lottery ticket. Although I think a lottery is a tax on people that is bad at math, I play when the pot gets 150 million +. I probably won't win, but I figure someone will.

The illegals can come to this country and get free health care, food stamps and a job that has no taxes taken out. They then have the nerve to hold up a sign saying they want equal rights. I say lets give them equal rights. The first thing we will do is stop the free health care and food stamps. Next, we will start taken taxes out of their paychecks. Now your equal. Welcome to America. If we did that, the tide would start flowing the other way.
