Anti Mexican Screed:

There is an email that rivals anything produced by Karl Rove and his group of divisive boys and girls. I read this piece of trash a number of weeks ago and frankly had this reaction:

If that is how the government decides to spend its treasure then so be it. You see I have always thought it is far better for a government to spend money on its citizens than to spend the same moneys blowing up citizens of another country.

Now you and some others may feel that illegal aliens are not citizens and so are entitled to nothing. You answer to such criticism is if you wish to spend the billions upon billions of dollars required to deport these people. Please do NOT expect my support for such foolishness.

What we have here is a disagreement on how the treasure of the country is to be spent. I for one would like to see those dollars spent to better the lot of people who reside in the USA. I feel the fundamental goal of government is to redress inequalities amongst the citizens. If that requires expenditure of vast sums of dollars raised by taxing rich and poor alike then so be it. In fact the rich do not now pay their fair share and this is increasingly the case.

I guess my fundamental question is what have you got against Mexicans? They did after all own all of the land we currently call Texas. They did until the white Anglo Saxons came to Texas and stole that land by force of arms. All of a sudden the Mexicans found them selves strangers in what had been their land. The same can be said of the Plains Indians.

All I know is that the American public was lied to by the current administration. Iraq had nothing to do with the attack upon the World Trade Center. The then leader of Iraq was indeed a very bad man. That however did not give America the right to invade his country. Indeed most of the rest of the world was opposed to American intervention in Iraq. With arrogance seldom equaled America told the rest of the world to “Bugger off”. Which is fine and dandy except do not expect those you have just shot a rod at to embrace your actions.

We are now facing the reality of gas prices that are on par with the rest of the world and we are sniveling like a bunch of overgrown spoiled brats which is in fact just what many Americans have become. Well we lash out and punish our fellow Americans? I expect we will. We did after all expropriate the businesses and homes of Japanese Americans during the Second World War, with no justification what so ever.

No where in this document were the actions called criminal. So I guess if it’s not criminal it becomes a case of citizens saying “Gee whiz I wish you all would not do that”
