Seriously. I'd have been a full half-hour early for work today if not for the illegal immigrants blocking the road as I came around a turn on Sawmill Road. 26 of them, crossing the road very slowly, herding some obvious younguns along with them along with those older children that look more adult. They were not bothered at all by the cars waiting for them to cross. There were even two local women, out for a walk, watching the illegal immigrants block traffic, and they were laughing.
I thought about blowing my horn at them and yelling, but honestly that would have caused more confusion and chaos and would have slowed the whole process down. They obviously did not speak English.
The worst part is ... there is no one to complain to about this. No one who will listen, anyway. The situation with these immigrants is so far out of control that nothing humanely can be done to fix it. They're here, we have to deal with it.
But I do wish, if they're going to eat our grass and poop on our lawns, that Canadian Geese were required to get a valid work visa.
(Yes, I know ... they are "Canada Geese," not "Canadian." They don't have citizenship in the 51st State any more than they do in the US. But the joke is funnier if I say "Canadian.")
I really did see this on the way to work, and wish I'd gotten a picture of it. They were actually cute ... two unfleged goslings, a group of younguns who had gained their adult colorations, and a group of adults, all in one large gaggle headed for the water on the other side of the road.
