Americans, how do you feel about immigration? by Holo Lukaloa on The Pipeline at IndieMusicPeople

Oh Jeez.

And nobody wants to say a damned thing.

Wow.

I almost didn't either. Till I saw nobody else has,
then I remembered,

"Hey, you're American Lesley Jane, you almost HAVE to say SOMETHING."

So let me see...

I think the real interesting question to ask, before we ask this one,

would be,

"Native Americans, how do you feel about we immigrants?"
Because to Native Americans, Guess What Folks?

We're All Immigrants.

And I'll bet a lot of Native Americans, like, oh, all of 'em,
were not happy about us coming in, and taking over the place,
killing most of them in the process, and what of them survived,
got relegated to Indian Reservations,

a subject Paul Revere And The Raiders once sung about
around circa 1970...

What else.

You know, Ladies & Gentlemen,
I used to go around calling myself
The Living Lady Liberty.

I was younger then, I didn't have a beard,
and my wife was still alive and she was the one that cut my hair,
and the haircut she gave me, looked, like the haircut
on Lady Liberty. I kid you not. I remember the day I realized
'HEY That Friggin' Statue Looks Just LIKE ME!'

Which was a surprise of course, but if you look at the Statue of Liberty
long enough, it will most likely occur to you too:
Hey that "Lady" looks awful darn 'Mannish'...

Or as Austin Powers put it,
"She's a MAN, Baby, Yeah"

But with all this, have I yet addressed the question?

Kinda a little bit, but not really.

Because I'm just going to say it.

We Are A Land Full of Hypocrites.
Why is Donald Trump, like, ANYWHERE?

Because there are a lot of selfish people.

People who either forget, or completely outright ignore,
the fact that we were the immigrants...

we came in, we slaughtered the people who lived here,

and now we act like we were here forever.

And even once you rub it in people's faces as I did,
which will probably make me even less popular than I am now,
but as I'm an old person now, I sort of don't give a damn,

Don't Like Me, See If Give A Good Goddamn...

But even then, watch Trump get the Nomination any old way,
with his 'ship 'em all out' nonsense..

and it is nonsense, it's bloody insanity...

Lady Liberty, right there on the statue, is inviting people in....
And okay, possibly the Native Americans aren't too happy
that they weren't consulted....

"Oh sure, invite everybody in after you killed damn near all of us".

But that underscores a point:

NATIVE AMERICANS, are the one to answer this question.
They WERE Here First. This WAS Their Land.

We just walked in like self-righteous white men and took it over,
even calling it 'God's Will' that we do.

I don't know if even God knows what to do with all of this.

So He in His Infinite Wisdom, made a loud mouth asshole like me,
to at least ask the questions,

to which there really are probably not any good answers.

Frankly, I think I should be King of the World,

and sort it all out.

But I'll settle for being The Next Republican President, That's Right.

I've said it.

About, oh, what, Two Hillary Terms from now...

The Next Republican President Is Lesley Jane.

And I'll tell you all,

this question, of immigration, and how to go about it fairly,
is not one I will try to figure out alone...

I'd have to have help, from a lot of Native Americans.

They're the ones to ask this question.

That's if we want to attempt to figure out how to sort out this mess.

If we want to simply repent,

we should create a National Commit Suicide Day,

and each of us, should leave a note behind
to the Native Americans:

"We're Sorry. You can have it back now."

But that won't happen.

Just the same, I will be, The Next Republican President.

Why?

Because the Republican Party needs a House Cleaning....

And I'm just the fucking bearded bitch to give it to 'em.

I'm American Lesley Jane and I approved this message.

Oh, and having said all that,
ISIS Sucks, And We Should Kill ALL Of Them.

I know, that really doesn't have much to do with the question,

but it's in the news, this Paris thing,
was terribly coordinated, and basically blew my mind all over again.

Jesus Fucking Christ.

well from a Canucks point of view,is our PM Trudeau still wants to bring in 25000 refugees from the war torn state of Syria to Canada, it will cost approx $20000 to house each of them a year, not counting getting them here, and they will need support to help them adjust, counseling to deal with what they went through, find jobs, education, we are getting 3000 here in our city, even though now they are basically all in no mans land suffering , in spite of what happened, i am concerned. and so are a lot of my fellow Canadians, but we have to show some humanitarian kindness. yet at the same time are we opening up doors to problems. perhaps. still we need to consider where our forefathers came from, mine, from Bulgaria in the early 1900's

cheers

One of the reasons the Indians always kind of helped the African Slaves was the fact that they knew we did not come here because we wanted to. We came here in chains. Seeing us and the way we were being treated gave them some clear insight into the mindset of the so called "settlers". It was obvious to them that people who were not White were not treated like humans. So, when a slave ran away, his best chance for survival was to seek out the Indians who gave them mercy.

The American immigration policy has almost always been a racist peace of crap. When the Italians, Irish, Polish and other Europeans came they were welcomed. But when other ethnicities like the Haitians and Hispanics come they are treated as criminals. If one of them commits a crime then the whole lot is accused of being criminals. It's just another part of the double standards that have always existed in America. If you are White? You are alright. If you ain't White then you are a threat and labeled free loaders and welfare cheats. But they never tell the real stats and figures. They never mention the fact that there are far more White people on Welfare and food stamps than any other race. But I digress.

The truth is never told here. Mexican immigrants are the hardest working people in this nation. They do all the shit jobs that nobody else wants to do. How many people want to go out into the sun bending over and reaching up all day in the crop fields? I have done that kind of work before and I lasted a whole month or two before my hands and feet looked like they had been run over by a giant brillo pad. Many farms here in California have trouble finding affordable workers to work their fields because the cheap labor force is being restricted and deported. When farmers can't find affordable workers it causes increased food prices and fields that turn into dustbowls. I say give them a path to citizenship. That is the least we can do.

Also, the Mexicans have just as legitimate a case as the Native Americans do. They were here in California long before we showed up. Now they are treated like they are the enemy for coming to a place that millions of their ancestors have been coming to for several centuries. he true criminals are the people that came here, saw the lush fertle and land and then forcefully claimed it as their own.

Well, the truth is not told in this country, enough. I'll agree there.
But the truth is never told here? I just tried to tell it. You just tried to tell it too, Stoneman, and you didn't do a half-bad job.

I agree that there should be a doable path to citizenship,
and Mr Obama has tried to do that, and as usual he gets blockage
and resistant from damn near every Republican out there.

There's a reason that I'll be President of the United States,
and frankly, I welcome all the friggin' input anyone wants to give me.
There's also a reason that
The Next Republican President Is Lesley Jane.

Because, that is one messy house. It needs cleaning real bad.
And I'm the one who'll do it-whether most of them like it or not.
And I know, it's probably 'not'.
I may be the only President in History (maybe, not sure on that)
assassinated by his own party, but fuck it. I do me. Real Loud And Clear.

Everything you said here is true, Stoneman.

This is WAY SO MUCH SO The Land Of The Double Standard.

By the way, you do notice that I did just call out white people, right?
Because I did just call out white people.

We killed the Native Americans.
We kidnapped Africans and brought them here to be Our Slaves,
and in the original document of this Great Nation, we sort of ignored that.

(and it's great, it's great now, because we can participate in improving it,
so shut up, Donald, with the 'great again' stuff, you sound like a dork,
and you frankly sound like you're only speaking to white people again,
like Glen Beck missing the 'good old days', coded bullshit for,
Glen Beck misses when white people were God and everyone else
had to shut up or die.)

We're White People-our motto is, "Our Shit Does Not Stink".

See?

I will say that.

There is a reason, I say, what I say, about me, and about everything.

I absolutely support a path to citizenship, as Barack has tried to set up.
It sounds fair, his plan. Perhaps my mistake was not including that
in my original response here, but I was too busy trying to yank out
of hiding the Great Lie Or, more to the point,

"The Great White Wash"

We Stole This Country. Stole it. Deal with it.

Or, don't. But it's common knowledge anyway. Is to me.

I'm a very straightforward person. I don't try to bait anyone. I say what I say.
And I invite you all to say what you have to say.

Except for the Cartoon Characters.

We can go ahead and call that Biological Bigotry, nobody's perfect.

Now,

if I am to sort out this mess which is Planet Earth,
it will take rooting out ALL the bullshit,
and to do that, I need plenty of help from any and every person
willing to open up their big fat yap and give it.

Okay? Okay.

Glad we had this chat.

Now.

From a different angle...
There is also this.

The thing that just happened in Paris...

There is talk that some who did that,
were in the wave of immigrants displaced by Syria.

And I'll bet by right about now, France wishes they'd not let any of them in.

There are a lot of Unknowns.

Such as,

Can The World Be Saved? Can It Be Sorted Out?

Unknown.

Is The Only Way This Thing Ends Up Going,
along the lines of what Mr Bob Marley said:

"seems like total destruction's the only solution"

Unknown. But Maybe.

But I'm willing to have a go at it.

Which is why I decided to try, crazy though it is,
and it isn't the first crazy thing I've tried to do,
to be King Of The Whole Friggin' World.

Though I'll probably start with being
President of the United States.

Stoneman, I like you are articulate, and not shy,
and oh, I may have a position in My Administration for you!

But we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

But this, is, Known To Me:

We The People Of Planet Earth,
came a long long way, on Bullshit.
But that time, is damn near completely over.

Bullshit, Ladies & Gentlemen,

IS, The Next Dinosaur.

Got Jane?

It is as long as I'm around to kick its ass.
