Subject: Hmm...Let's say I break into your house.....




Let's say I break into your house.


This explains things better than all the

baloney you hear on TV.



Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the
country protesting the fact that Congress is finally
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, "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 hardworking and honest

(except for when I broke into your house).

According to the protesters, not only must you let me
stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan,
educate my kids, and provide other benefits to me and to
my family (my spouse will do your yard work because he too
is hardworking 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
hardworking and honest, um, except for well,

you know.

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 selfishness, prejudice and being an anti-housebreaker.
Oh yeah, and I want you to learn my language so you can
communicate with me.

Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?!

Only in America....

if you agree, pass it on (in English).



If not, blow it off along with your future

Somebody enlighten me please. Is the problem with HOW the immigrants are coming here or just THAT they are coming here? I really would like to understand bacause, as I'm sure everyone fully understands, there is a huge difference. The only reason this is "our" house is because we forcefully took it from someone else, right? Almost everyone on this site had ancestors that, at some point, come to this country. Very few of us had ancestors that originated in the United States. I don't believe that anyone has any less of a right to live in this country than we do. Hopefully no one else does either. Now if the problem is the WAY that people are showing up now, I can understand that. Could somebody clarify that for me. I hate to get in the middle of it, but I'd sure like to understand.

It is about the laws they break (or bend) to get here,...then add to the burden as if they are entitled to it....

be it the muslim cabbies in Mn,..imposing thier law upon US, or Mexicans' the refusal to learn english.....but most of all it is the number.

I few Muslims we could handle. a few Mexicans we could deal with.....our local school is overwhelmed with non english speaking children...

most of whom, I deal with every day can not speak english.....

if you were to go to areas such as Detriot,...Newark,,,Miami,,,LA and see the impact, it would shock you.......they are worse then Mexico, Bagdad or any other third world city.

I am all for stopping immigration until we can handle more guests.

Jigs you do not know what Pendejo means? What kind of an American are you? Few more years you will not be able to get away with out knowing our new native language :cry:

Ps. I would not put up with Kolan calling you a Duma$$ if it was me.

There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only 100 percent. Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.
Theodore Roosevelt


Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.

Pendejo is etymologically related to the Latin pectiniculus, meaning pubic hair or anal hair. It may be translated as a-hole in many situations, though it carries an extra implication of rank and willful incompetence. The less extreme version, which is used in most Spanish speaking countries is the term 'jack a$$.'

In Mexico, Central and Northern South America, pendejo refers to a stupid person, synonymous with idiota, although it is a much stronger word in Mexico and Central America than it is in Panama, where, while still impolite, it is not as offensive, especially among younger people. In Peru it means a person who gains benefits from an advantageous situation in an immoral manner and if it used referring to a female, "ella es una pendeja", means she is promiscuous. In South America pendejo is also a vulgar, yet inoffensive word, for children. It also signifies a person with a disorderly or irregular life. In Puerto Rico it has different meanings depending on the situation. It can range from "Te cogieron de pendejo!" = "You were fooled!" (e.g. by a conman), to "Qué tipa pendeja!" = "What an a-hole!" (e.g. when some unknown woman unexpectedly offends you with no apparent motive, and just leaves turning her back on you). In Mexico and some countries of Central America, especially El Salvador, "una pendejada" is used to describe something incredibly stupid that someone has done. In many countries, "pendejo" also means coward (with a stronger connotation), as in "No huyas, pendejo!" = "Don't run away, chicken-****!".
