I stop at a local liquor store on the way to work to get some snacks to munch on. The guys behind the counter are Islamic. One guy was speaking on the phone in this native language. He apologized and told me he was talking to his mother. I said that he didn't have to apologize for talking to his mother. He said that customers come in and get mad at him if they hear them speaking in anything but English.
I told him to tell those customers to go fuck themselves. The guy smiled and stuck out his hand and introduced himself.
Being nice feels a whole lot better than being a jerk!

11. it has always amused me to see people freaking out when someone is speaking another language around |

them--always certain that whoever is speaking is, obviously, talking about THEM (because, after all, THEY are the center of the universe) I grew up with what amounted to the tower of babel around me, and it has never bothered me one bit--especially since friends and I have been known to converse in languages other than english.
these people reallllllllllly need to get lives of their own.

"branded" or "labeled" in some way. That always seems to work out well.

10. Why stop there.. This is a Christian Nation.. as the right loves to point out |
|
repeatedly. Let's just throw them all out of the country. Followed by the Jews, the Buddhists, and the Hindu's.
I for one can't wait to live in a country made up entirely of tight assed repressed Christians who go ballistic at the 2 second sight of Janet Jacksons nipple, but love to watch drones bomb the shit out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Sign me up!

20. why not 5 miles... or 25 or 50 ? |
|
Who needs a constitution anyway:(
the press could shut this down in a heartbeat if they wanted to, but of course they don't want to.. they need constant conflict/controversy to keep people tuning in to "see what happens next"..
every pol who tries to tamp it down, gets blasted for commenting and questioned about their "patriotism" & love of the "hallowed place"..
We are all trapped inside a gigantic "Truman Show" melodrama, but there are other people in the world who just think we are a bunch of wacko xenophobic, homophobic, racist dolts.
