( this doesnt reflect what i think on the subject one way or another , but its one hell of a point of view and sadly enough makes sense)
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 U.S. 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 hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).
According to the protesters:
You are Required to let me stay in your house.
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan.
You are Required to Educate my kids.
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family (my husband will do all of your yard work because he is also hard-working 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 a hard-working and honest, person, except for well, you know, I did break into your house. And oh yeah, I get a free education, where you have to pay your own way through college.(TEEHEE)
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 cold,uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and bigoted behavior.
Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you learn MY LANGUAGE!!! So you can communicate with me. And don't forget to make sure your forms are in MY language - I need to understand them...
ok, its been awhile but heres another one of my spouts off at the mouth.
why is it that "SOME" ( a lot ) of gay/bi people feel the need to have support? why feel the need to announce it and badge it as if anyone really cares? i guess it allows other gay/bi people let them know where they are or something. Personally i could care less who someone else is sleeping with but i go through profiles on this site, other sites and always see little tags or some shit talking about " I support gay marriage" " do you support gay marriage" i kiss girls so what" etc...
do you see straight people with signs and tags saying " i support straight marriage" a guy with words all over his profile saying " i kiss girls" or a woman saying " i kiss men"
maybe i should make a huge tag that says " i support straight marriage" or " i luv women" and post it all over my profile.
i can understand being proud of who you are and all but i think some take it to a whole other level.
Ok, so i was sitting back thinking ( i do that once in awhile)
wouldnt it be a cool idea if the point system on fubar got changed up a little bit....
i've been on here for a little while now and have watched point whores come and go etc etc...
what if you actually recieved more points for rating people and commenting them than the other way around???
slows down begging for attention and actually gets all the point whores to rating other peoples shyt and actually making them work for their shit???
hmmm? now wouldnt that be an interesting twist to things.....
it would be hilarious to watch them running around on the site rating everybodies shit to try and get their points up and level up etc.....
now of course as usual the ones that would have the most are the ones that have nothing to do all damn day long....
but oh well.....its just a thought and would be funny to see
