TiggyToes's blog: "Stories"

Anybody want to pitch in to help pay for an electric fence?


A lady wrote the best letter in the Editorials 
in ages!!!  It explains things better than all 
the baloney you hear on TV.

Her point: 

Recently large demonstrations have taken place 
across the country protesting the fact that Arizona 
is addressing the issue of illegal immigration.

Certain people are angry that 
the US might protect its own 
borders, might make it harder 
to sneak into this country and, 
once here, to stay indefinitely.

Let me see if I correctly understand 
the thinking behind these protests. 
Let's say I break into your house.
Let's say that when you discover 
me in your house, you insist that I leave.

But I say, "No! I like it here". 

It's better than my house. I've made all 
the beds and washed the 
dishes and did the laundry 
and swept the floors. I've 
done all the things you don't 
like to do. I'm hard-working
and honest (except for when I broke into your house).

According to the protesters:

You are Required to let me stay in your house 
You are Required to feed me
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan 
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family 
(my husband will do all of your yard work because 
he is also hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part).

If you try to call the police or force me out, 
I will call my friends who will picket your 
house carrying signs that proclaim my 
RIGHT to be there. 

It's only fair, after all, because you have 
a nicer house than I do, and I'm just 
trying to better myself.  I'm a hard-working 
and honest, person, except for well, 
you know, I did break into your house 
and what a deal it is for me!!!

I live in your house, contributing only a 
fraction of the cost of my keep, and 
there is nothing you can do about it 
without being accused of cold, Uncaring, selfish, 
prejudiced, and bigoted behavior.

Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you learn 
MY LANGUAGE!!! So you can communicate with me. 

Why can't people see how ridiculous 
this is?
