Society & Culture
Just because you are born in the south or living in the south does not make you a racist. Are we good ole’ boys and girls, yes we are. Do we enjoy hunting, fishing and outdoor gatherings? Yes we do. I have never been a slave owner, now has any of my ancestors at least back to when they came from England. I had a great, great, great grandfather that came from England as an indentured servant. It doesn’t matter to me what color your skin is or where you came from or where you live or what you want your gender to be. However, there are only two genders, male and female. If you want to identify as a woman and you are a man that is up to you, but that doesn’t change the fact that you are a male. I say all of this because the whole world has gone on a tantrum about race, gender, religion and I’m really tired of hearing about it and seeing it on television. Our history is just that, history. Removing statues and renaming schools, buildings, streets and parks is offensive to me because that is my history. It is your history as well if you were born in the United States. If you have come to my country, the United States of America to escape a country where you don’t have the freedoms that are available here, then do it the right way and become a citizen. That means that you give up your citizenship from the country you left and you become an American. You can’t still be Indian and an American unless you are going to hold dual citizenship and if that is what you are doing, then it probably means you didn’t leave the other country because of hardships. If you were born in America, you are an American. Again if you were born in America, you are an American. You might have Hispanic ancestors or African ancestors or Asian ancestors, but you are an American if you were born here. You can be proud of your ancestry, and you should be. If you are here to become an American, than do what you need to do to accomplish that goal. Just because your parents dragged you here as a young child doesn’t mean you get a free ride or it shouldn’t. If you have been here long enough to graduate from college or start college, they apply for citizenship like an adult and do what is right. I’m tired of hearing about all the illegals that are coming here and they are getting benefits handed to them when Americans have to pay or they are fined or penalized for not following the rules. I’m tired of working to pay for others to get benefits that just need to go get a job. If you have a family to provide for then go get a job. Minimum wage is better than nothing. Pride should not keep you from getting a job doing something to put food on the table or pay rent. You can apply for help with benefits, but it is not a permanent handout. It is to help you until you are able to get a job that pays more. I have had to work all my life to get to where I am today. I’m not rich and we barely pay our bills, but we have a roof over our heads, clothes on our backs and food on our table. We do not look for handouts or expect people to just hand us things. That is not the way it is supposed to work. You have to work for the things you want in life. You have to have ethics and morals and you have to obey the laws. If you look for trouble you will find it. If you pull a gun on someone, chances are you can lose your life or go to jail. Those are all decisions you as a person makes.Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/lsfarnsworth29)Against the Rocks - Teespring Store Teespring Store to promote productsBuzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!
