Arizona just fucked with the wrong Mexican.
Just a special holiday message to our Republican friends in the Arizona legislature and the governor's mansion. These "illegals," as you so callously call them, are human beings. I know it can be confusing sometimes, what with the brown skin and the accents.
Not only are these people the same as you and me, they deserve to be treated with some remote semblance of fucking respect. Regardless of their citizenship status, or from which border they come from.
Undocumented migrants are just that, immigrants in search of a better life in the land of opportunity. They come here just as our forefathers did in search of something more. Remember life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
In the meantime, they mow your lawns, they fix your roof, and they serve you Taco Bell at the goddamn drive thru. How about you hypocrites practice just a tiny little bit of the compassion that your supposed lord and savior actually taught? That guy you worship and are constantly beating the rest of us over the head with? Jesus, right? Remember him?
Love your neighbor as yourself.
[Matthew 22:39]
So in everything, do to others as you would have them do to you.
[Matthew 7:12.]
If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.
[Matthew 19:21]
But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. You will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.
[Luke 14:13 &14.]
Liberal? Progressive? Oh, hell yes...the guy practically put the 'J' in social justice. Unfortunately, many of the "Christians" in America claim to love the man, while choosing at the same goddamn time, to act nothing like him. Love him? Great. Fucking act like it.
Many Mexicans love him too. So much so that they actually name their children after him. Why don't we have any Jesus' kicking it on this side of the border?
*knock at the door* "Hi! My name's Bob Smith from Provo. Beautiful morning, isn't it? Can I tell you about the Book of Mormon today?"
"What? No. My name's Jesus Johnson...and it is a beautiful morning. Now get the fuck off my lawn."
Seriously. How great would that be? Anyway, all the while these Mexicans, these fellow Christians, are just loving their neighbor. They love their neighbors so much that they just want to be a little closer to us.
You Christo-fascists do realize that there's more in that book that you claim to hold so dearly than just taking rights away from gay people and women who need abortions, right?
Until Arizona can pull it's collective head out of it's conservative ass...
Not one dime, not one peso, not one visit to your state as long as SB1070 stands.
Happy Cinco de Mayo...racist assholes.
there is no arizona...no painted desert, no sedona.
