I am always amazed at people and how they think they know what is best for others. What gene is it that causes thinking? Where is it written in the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence?

Recently it was announced by the MPAA (the people that rate movies) will look more strongly at hard rating on movies if there is any smoking. I am not condoning smoking, I for one am a smoker. But it is the fact that this group of people think they know what is right for the American Public.  How is this going to stop people from smoking? Or from starting? It isn’t. Doing things like this just want to make people do it more. If you aren’t interested in seeing a movie for various reasons that is fine. That is your choice.

 But it is bigger than just the movies. It is everything that people are doing to regulate us. To me, this is going against everything America stands for.

 We as Americans, more than that, as humans have freewill. It is our decision on what is wrong and right. Good or bad. I am not saying we need to be lite on all things. I am for DUI laws, sex offender laws, etc. BUT to tell me what I can and cannot watch, or eat or say, is just not right. The guidance is fine, but that is it. Guidance.

I don’t have kids. But most of my close friends do. And I have to say, I am very upset with things I hear and read. Parents and Parent groups wanting the government to control what the media produces and what toys are made and control the Internet. It is NOT the government’s job to babysit your kids. It is your job. Grow up. Teach your kids morals and proper behaviors.  It is your responsibility to raise your children, not the governments, not mine, not your neighbors. YOURS!

Where in the Constitution does it let these people have the right to set the rules of what is right and wrong for all people. If you don’t like something that is said, or printed, or produced in any form, that is your choice. But I may not agree.  And vice versa.

We are we going to grow up? When are we going to realize that we can make our own choices? When are we going to tell our lawmakers to lay off and concentrate on things that matter?

It is time to step up and stop these people from telling us what we can and can’t do.

Illegal Immigrants

As some of you know, my past papers have been more of research papers on a couple of religious subjects. To begin my new writings, I want to inform the readers that these new writings, for the most part, are going to be opinion editorials. These will all be on various subjects. For this one I want to talk about illegal immigration. I grew up in Chicago. But for the past six years I have lived in two Border States, Texas and Arizona. I have seen the issues first hand and consequences. Let me say, I don’t have a problem with people looking for a better life. That is what America was built on. But aren’t we already stretching American Public Services enough already? 

As Americans, we all pay taxes. These monies are for everything from National defense to welfare to fire and police. It is something we never get away from. We all work hard to support our families and support our nation. But the illegals’, and I will be specific, the Hispanics, are taking advantage of our system more than our own people.  These people don’t want to register for Social Security numbers. They don’t want to learn English. (Which unfortunately is NOT the national language? There is no law stating what the official language of America is). We need to have everything printed in two languages. Americans are being made to learn Spanish. Just not everyday people, but teachers, police and medical professionals, just to name a few. 

If Hispanics want to enjoy a better life in America, it needs to be done legally. They need to be forced to go through the same legalization process as all other foreigners coming to America. THEY need to learn English. THEY need to learn American laws. American morality. American ethics. I am not saying forget where they came from or their heritage. Just if you want to live here, YOU need to learn the native way. As the old adage goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans” You come across this border illegally, you are a criminal. It doesn’t matter if you are man, woman or child. You want Americans to help you, don’t just do it based on the theme of humanity. I have been emergency rooms in Phoenix with insurance, had was made to wait hours on end to see a doctor because of all these illegals’. Many of these people came along way through brutal conditions and that is a terrible thing. I have seen those deserts that people have had to cross in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. It is not a fun place. And if you have they guts to try and cross them, you deserve basic human rights just Pows in war time. THEN it is time to go home.  

IT IS TIME TO BUILD THE WALL ON OUR SOUTHERN BORDER. I would like to discuss a Flower Mound, Texas. Flower Mound is a small town of about 30,000 people I believe. It is what is called the North Mid-Cities between Fort Worth and Dallas. Currently on the agenda for the city council is a new law prohibiting illegal immigrants. Bottom line is that they would not be allowed inside the city limits of Flower Mound.  

Business’s that are found to be hiring and employing illegals’ will be subject to fines. It will be illegal to rent to an illegal. And many other such items. I applaud Flower Mound for this measure. It is time for Americans to finally put some measures in place to protect America. Will this solve the problem? Not by any means. But it is a start. Once Flower Mound enacts this policy, more and more American towns will hopefully follow suit. Which in turn will hopefully get the Federal government to crack down. 

Now while Flower Mound is getting ready to hopefully pass this legislation, there is a group called LULAC. I am not sure what it stands for, all I know is they have no idea what they are doing. They are for immigrants rights. What rights? They are just as bad as American criminals. They have no legal rights! LULAC doesn’t want these people to learn English. They don’t care if they come to America legally. They just want rights for the criminals. No one is against people wanting to improve their lives. Just do it the legal way. 

The only good thing about the illegals is that they will do the work that American’s won’t do. So what does that say about us? When Americans feel they are above mowing lawns, construction and other blue collar jobs. And it all comes down to money. It is time to raise the minimum wage from $5.35. There are still many Americans, though unemployment is down, that need work.  Before I get to far off track, let me get back to the issue. I will discuss the issue about American’s work ethic later.  

I guess the bottom line to this writing is this:  It is time to take care of America. Let’s finish up in Iraq. Let’s bring our soldiers home and have them make a difference here at home. One needs to get their own house in order before working on others. Let’s build the wall on the southern border. Let’s stop letting the Hispanics dictate American agenda. Learn English. Force them to be naturalized. Make the pay taxes. This will be much easier then rounding them up and sending them home. But we can prevent more from coming over.
