Feasts and Fortunes

I have a mission tomorrow. I can't really tell yall what I'll be up to, because of the whole fact that I'm in a war zone and such. But let me just say this: It is gonna be boring as Hades. Is that how you spell Hades? Anyway, that's what's going on tomorrow.
I watched American History X last night. Is it wrong for me to almost 100% agree with what Edward Norton says in one of his monologues in the movie? This is the one I'm talking about:
"Alright, listen up: We need to open our eyes. There's over 2,000,000 illegal immigrants bedding down in this state, tonight. This state spent 3,000,000,000 dollars last year on services for those people who had no right to be here in the first place. 3 billion dollars. 400 million dollars just to lock up a bunch of illegal immigrant criminals who only got into this country because the fuckin' INS decided it's not worth the effort to screen for convicted felons.
Who gives a shit? Our government doesn't give a shit. Our border policy is a joke. So is anybody surprised that south of the border. they're laughing at us? Laughing at our laws? Every night, thousands of these parasites stream across the border like some fuckin' pinata exploded. Don't laugh. there's nothing funny going on here. this is about your life and mine. Its about decent, hardworking Americans falling through the cracks and getting the shaft because their government cares more about the constitutional rights of a bunch of people who aren't even citizens of this country!
On the Statue of Liberty it says: Give me your tired, your hungry, your poor. Well, its Americans who are tired and hungry and poor. I say until you take care of that, close the fuckin book."
Well, maybe not 100%. The pinata thing was a little excessive.
What do you think?

  1. He's got a point.

    And I mean that in a non-racist fashion.
