This letter sent to Tennessee Senator Bill First from a retired border patrol agent.

Read it with an open mind before you go off on a rant. Thinking about the points is probably a good way to start.Dear Senator First

i'm posting this in my journal. this says it all, exactly as it needs to be said, with out sound like a lunatic. (which i tend to do when discussing this topic)

btw, you are on a posting streak today, aren't you? ;-)

[spamhater]

No shit. What's up with that?

[sockmonkie]

i'm only use to your name coming up on my f-list once a month or so. i'm in shock. XD

[spamhater]

I know. I completely suck at posting. What does that mean?

HERE'S WHAT THAT MEANS: You totally rock for not giving me the 'friend boot'!!! That's what it means. ;-)

I agree - and I'm an immigrant.

[spamhater]

Glad to hear it! I'm in S. Fla. and most immigrants here seem to feel the same way.

My great-great-great-great-(or something)-Grandfather was an immigrant from Ireland.

Do you know what the Help Needed signs used to say way back then?

"HELP WANTED, Irish need not apply".

True story. And the wheel goes round. ;-)

I know. The Irish were the trash in that day. I don't know all that much about it, but they may have been trash, you know? Just like some of the folks we view as trash these days. However, I have never seen an Irishman turn up loud ass Gaelic music after work and bother the neighborhood.

[spamhater]

HAHA! I'm not so sure about that. I think they were pretty much bottom of the barrel back then. Peasants. Tenant farmers. Shit like that. Then they organized, pretty much like every other group that has come to the US.

I'm thinking that the Irish were a rowdy fucking lot. Look at us now, for God's sake! ;-)

[darlingnikki02]

Wow. This wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!

[spamhater]

Chicken. ;-)
