Ok, this is the way I wish to start my new adventure in blogging (is it still called blogging these days?). I have looked at life through reasonably rational eyes these 40 some years I've walked this earth. I've noticed a few things in these last few years, months, weeks, and days. This is my view of those things.

What is wrong with calling a spade a spade? I have recently read that it is racist to call someone an "illegal alien". They say we should call them "undocumented workers". Well I say the reason they're "undocumented" is that they don't have documents due to the fact that they are here....wait for it....ILLEGALLY. It reminds me of the "you might be a redneck" stuff from a few years ago. If you had to run through a desert, swim a river, or hire someone called a coyote to get here, then you just might be an illegal alien. So, I'm going to keep calling them what they are, people who are in MY country illegally, illegal aliens or if you prefer, criminal aliens. A small bit of advice, if they don't want their feelings hurt by being called what they are, illegally in this country, then maybe they should either stay in their own country or actually do what most people do...follow the rules to gain entry into the United States.  read more »
