Apparently one of our free enterprises here in America has offended some folks with a Halloween costume.
At least it doesn't have brown skin
The headline of the article reads “Immigrants Not Amused by ‘Illegal Alien’ Costume” the article goes on to say that immigrant rights groups are upset by the costume. As much as I have been feeling more sensitive lately towards the plight of others I can’t find myself offended by the big eyed Grey in the orange jumpsuit holding a green card. Am I really supposed to feel sorry for someone here in this country illegally who doesn’t even have a sense of humor? Sure I think we need to relax immigration laws, streamline the process, and generally make it easier to become a citizen. I could go on and on about the while “Tired, poor, and huddled masses as long as they have their green cards handy” mentality I see amongst my brethren but honestly it disgusts me only slightly more than so-called immigrant groups being outraged over a funny costume. Everyone needs to just lighten up. To hear these defenders of illegal aliens, and not the kind in the picture, spew outrage over this you’d think someone got lynched and the hear some of my friends talk about the illegal aliens you’d think lynchings were about to start. Of course those same people have a bunch of tan boys mowing their yard every week. I have a lawn crew and don’t care whether they are here legally or not as long as they do a good job. I am so sick of everyone on both sides of this issue being hypocrites that I can’t stand it.
So for this week’s political post my only commentary is: LIGHTEN THE HELL UP. If everyone would just laugh about themselves every once in a while this might be a nicer place overall. That goes for my boys deriding the illegals and the illegals getting offended over a costume. Get over yourselves already. I have. That is all.
