"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help
everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any more riots,
keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of
debt free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren,
hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense
guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional. We hold these
truths to be self-evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the
Bill of Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of No Rights."



ARTICLE I:

You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other form of
wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is
guaranteeing anything.



ARTICLE II:

You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on
freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave
the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc., but the world
is full of idiots, and probably always will be ... and like the rest of us
you need to simply deal with it.



ARTICLE III:

You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver
in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer
to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy by telling them
they didn't warn you not to stick the screwdriver in your eye.



ARTICLE IV:

You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most
charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we
are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of
professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of
another generation of professional couch potatoes.



ARTICLE V:

You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but
from the looks of public housing, we should be wary of public health care or
public anything.



ARTICLE VI:

You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap,
rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of
us want to see you fry in the electric chair (yes, capital punishment).



ARTICLE VII:

You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat
or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised
if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still
won't have the right to a big screen color TV, pool tables, weight rooms or
a life of leisure.



ARTICLE VIII:

You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a job,
and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take
advantage of the opportunities of part time jobs, education and vocational
training laid before you to make yourself useful.



ARTICLE IX:

You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you
have the right to PURSUE happiness-- which by the way, is a lot easier if
you are unencumbered by an overabundance of idiotic laws created by those of
you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.



ARTICLE X:

This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from. We
welcome you here. English is our language and like the one you left behind,
we also have a culture. Learn it or go back to the country and the living
conditions you were fleeing."

 

EXCELLENT, loved them all especially the one above. If you don't like it then get the FU*K OUT!!!!...

 

AND..

don't let the door hit you on the ***

 

FASTGATOR for President!!!

 

But you don't speak "proper" English

 

no wee don't but we will let you get away with it when you come visit.

if only that could be made real. it'd be so nice to see the part of my paycheck that goes to the professional couchies.

 

Trust me you DO NOT want to know just how much goes to the lazy bastards sitting at home on their @ss doing nothing but planning on how to spend the TON of free cash they get from us.

If you did you just might go POSTAL...

 

I would venture to say that almost all immigrants learn English, it just takes some time. It would be very hard to make it here without knowing the language...think about it.

Also remember that we are all immigrants, unless of course you are Native American. My great great grandfather, who homesteaded the land I live on, spoke Swedish. He knew VERY little English in the 40 years that he lived here before he died.

That makes me think of a funny story though. Not long after my great grandfather bought his first car, a Ford Model T, he let his dad take it out for a spin. Keep in mind that he was getting up there in years and he had driven horses and oxen all his life. He got the car going, went down the road and when it came time to stop at the intersection he didnt. In his attempt to stop he started pulling on the steering wheel and saying Whoa (like you would pull back on the reigns and say whoa to stop a horse or oxen)...he went clear off the end of the road.

Eventually he got the hang of it.

 

i speak american(and i am learning some gaelig)(sp)
