Well, my blood pressure just sky-rocketed: look at this racist garbage my cousin sent me

POEM - Illegal Immigrants

I cross ocean,
poor and broke,

Take bus,
see employment folk.

Nice man
treat me good in there,
Say I need
go see Welfare.

Welfare say,
"You come no more,

We send cash
right to your door."

Welfare checks,
they make you wealthy,

Medicaid
it keep you healthy!

By and by,
Got plenty money,

Thanks to you,
TAXPAYER dummy.

Write to friends
in motherland,

Tell them
'come, fast as you can'

They come in turbans
and Ford trucks,

I buy big house
with welfare bucks. wtf is this shit? Who can buy a house ON WELFARE??
They come here,
we live together,

More welfare checks,

it gets better!

Fourteen families,
they moving in,

But neighbor's patience
wearing thin.

Finally, white guy
moves away,

I buy his house,
and then I say,

"Find more aliens
for house to rent."

In my yard
I put a tent.

Send for family
they just trash,

But they, too,
draw welfare cash!

Everything is
very good,
Soon we own
whole neighborhood.

We have hobby
it called breeding,

Welfare pay
for baby feeding.

Kids need dentist?
Wife need pills?

We get free!
We got no bills!

TAXPAYER crazy!
He pay all year,
To keep welfare
running here.

We think America
darn good place!
Too darn good
for white man race.

If they no like us,
they can scram,
Got lots of room
in Pakistan.

1. Well what are you going to do about it?

2. I just told her off...which is sad. She's actually pretty liberal.

But I'm noticing an unsettling trend among the Catholic branch of my family...and many Democrat leaning families.

Racism is just too easy to cave into, seems.

7. I know a lot of "liberals" who are anti immigrant. There are a shit load of them here.

I know they are against illegal immigrants and not all immigrants. I think all immigrants would help build the Democratic base once they are citizens or help to form unions or help to better the working class as a whole.

It is the corporations that pit us against each other. We should welcome immigrants as brothers and sisters in the fight against corporatism the world over.

9. word

Yes, all too often at DU you see some very nasty anti-immigrant (which is usually anti-latino/hispanic as well) crap.

It's just very sad when it comes from home...

[MisterP]

11. ironically, racism and anti-immigrant sentiment is usually closely tied with anti-Catholicism

[Joanne98]

3. Why do RWingers always think everybody gets welfare?

They must never read Government budgets. If they did they would find out all the welfare goes to the top! Try kicking CONTRACTORS off the dole. Now that would save tons of money!

[Hell Hath No Fury]

4. I would just return the favor...

with a Haiku of my own:

Lady Liberty
weep sad tears for
ignorant white fucks

[aquart]

5. Well done.

[WindRavenX]

6. toche

:thumbsup:

Yeah...this is the first "one of those" e-mails I've received...and it's kinda sad :(

[Subdivisions]

8. I went to my mom and dad's place today and on the way

back I just happened to look at the front of this house and there, on the front fucking door, the occupants had gone to great labors to let everyone know how redneck racist, or stupid, they are. They had proudly hung a confederate flag as a curtain for their front storm door!

Sheesh. What a fucking disappointment the human race is.

[LeftishBrit]

10. Disgusting...

To my shame, I believe that part of the poem is based on one or more old racist verses from the UK (where a fairly high proportion of immigrants came from Pakistan; hence the last verse).

Does your cousin think it's OK to send verses like that?

[dbonds]

12. I would ask your cousin, if welfare is so good, why isn't he on it.

So much crap in that I would know where to start debunking.

[billyoc]

13. I've always heard that the vast majority of welfare recipients are white.
