today in american history
i found a use for this journal, i can document seeing the whitest kid i've ever seen who was also allegedly gay whining about how police broke up their demonstration after they started breaking shit. For the record the demonstration was in response to a senate vote on a bill that would criminalize illegal immagrants.
Now, it does make sense to legalize them, after all the tax money they would bring in is pretty much milk from mexico's teat, and california is a hungry baby after gray davis fucked us over. They're here anyways, if you deport them they'll get back here somehow. They do jobs no one else wants to do, so what the hell? Unless your lifelong dream is cleaning shit up, i don't think a mexican will take your job.
That's not really the point of this entry. The point is a bunch of highschool kids left school to protest. Now that's well and good under the right circumstances, but honestly, what chance would a bill like that seriously have? Why would the government throw more money away for no reason putting these people in prison? I bet not one of those damn kids could tell you specifics about why they were protesting. I'd say nobody even thought anything through for more than 5 seconds before they all decided to "rise up" and stand tall against the man by being a giant pain in the ass blocking the freeway. The worst part to me is that there were no consequences for these people. They can't vote, they're just being little shits. Kids can't do shit, and that's life. The reason they can't do shit is because teenagers are fucking stupid, and anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar and a communist. I was a fucking stupid teenager, and everyone reading this either was or is or will be too.
I'll admit, i'm absolutely clueless as to what action our government needs to take. I don't have the information needed to make any kind of decision on what to do or how to do it. I don't know at what rate the illegal population is growing, i don't know what the best way to better secure our borders is, but i do know no matter what happens, even if every mexican simply vanished, the sun will still rise and time will march on. You cannot choose how things turn out but you can choose how to react to them. In the end that's the only control you'll really have over your life.
