On a day when many proud Americans--myself included--screamed "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!" in cheering on our national soccer team's efforts in the World Cup, a group of gutless low-life scum screamed the same at buses full of women in and children in Murrieta, CA trying to immigrate to America to escape the violence of their native countries in Central America. Though small in number, their efforts managed to get the buses to leave and head for another safe haven. No doubt those lily-livered folks considered themselves Patriots who had protected our American values.
Since fucking when did hatred and intimidating already scarred women and children become American values? How many of these anti-immigrant protesters have the slightest clue what it says on perhaps America's most admired monument, the Statue of Liberty?
"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me.
I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
Some golden door they have there in Murrieta, CA. Methinks shouting "U.S.A.!" in the name of hate toward terrified women and children is enough to make a maggot puke.
Peace,
