Day Of The Protests

Man, sometimes I love this city!

Alright, I started my day off in front of the Mexican Consulate. Why, you ask? Well, it seems that this has become the meeting place of Illegal Aliens, this is where they are able to sign up for FREE and LEGAL ID cards, get TAX PAID SERVICES like food stamps and other aids they don't deserve. The real kicker is: ONLY illegals are allowed in this building on these days. That's right, if you are an AMERICAN and have either earned the right to be here you are not allowed.

Somethings cannot go unchallenged.

There was an immigration reform rally infront of this asylum and since is was my day off and since it was only 2 blocks away from my home...well......

So there I was, standing with my Fellow Americans, demanding a change to this pure stupidity that has infected our Great Nation. No yelling, no name calling...we did the Pledge of Allegiance, something that should be said everyday.
It reminded me how I used to feel when I would stand in class, place my hand over my heart and honor my flag...

Then I heard shouting...
Someone was on the Mexican side of the fence saying, and I quote: "Fuck America!" "Fuck Bush!" "You are all a bunch of racists!"
I looked and lo and behold it was one of the animal 'rights' loonies standing AGAINST AMERICA! Some people were shouting back so I stepped up, told the gathering Americans that this guy, who seemingly hates America, also hates businesses that do nothing more than offer fur coats to those willing to pay for them. He looked at me and called me a racist bastard...I turned and simply said "there are no fur coats here, Jack."
He told me to shut up that he had the right to say what he wanted...
"No, dude," I informed him," on THAT side of the fence you are on Mexican property. THEY don't have the First Amendment, on that side you DON'T have the freedom of speech. You want to speak your peace, them come over here and speak it."
He did...well, tried to...
Before he opened his mouth I turned to those around us and explained, "Yes, he does have the right to speak...but he does NOT have the right to be listened to."
He seemed to think he did so I had to explain to him the Constitution does not guarentee you any right to be heard. Especially if you're an Anti-American Jackass.

So, After he flipped me the bird and walked away we started chanting 'USA! USA! USA!'

Man, it was great.

Then came the animal 'rights' loonies
So I walked in front of them, again, and into the fur store, again, because I wanted to let them know that one of their protesters also seemingly hates America.
They weren't suprised.
The results of this visit were:
I'm going to make a statement on the furriers behalf based on my personal thoughts and feelings on and with these nuts.
I'm possibly going to be inverviewed by the Portland Monthly magazine about all this since one of their guys was down there!!!
I was also able to, unfortunatly, see first hand the horrors of an animal rights chick WITH NO SHIRT ON!!! My god, it was horrid, it was like seeing some sad, skinned animal flopping about the sidewalk! And the worst part of it, besides it being daytime, was she was on the sidewalk, in the downtown area on a Saturday. There were families, KIDS, walking around having to see this pot bellied pig of a woman bouncing about the street.
And just in case noone believed this, I abused my phone and took pictures of her. My poor phone...When I'm able to get online at a home computer I'll post them somewhere...

America...

What a Country.
