It makes some interesting points.

Help Save Manassas!!!!

So I have to say that this weekend, we didn’t have shadow as he was doing a trial border at Waggin Tails so we had some time to just sit back and relax without worrying about him. During this time, Jess was goofing around on the internet finding articles regarding my last post here, and came across Help Save Manassas. I have to say that after doing some research I can agree with this group and I hope that many others will as well. I have always been the person to say that if you are not a Refugee and then you need to seek the legal way to come into this country.

Illegals in this country are a BIG Gear Grinder for me. My grandparents on my mothers side came to this country legally and followed all the proper channels and I don’t understand why they can’t. Not to mention that once they are here, they expect to have all the same rights and abilities as everyone else, yet continue to break the law by not paying taxes, or obtaining work illegally. To make things worse, there are companies that actually help and employ these people and the government / police have done minimal to solve it. I can get in my car right now and drive by at least 4 labor sites in Manassas and watch as the police drive by the same places and do nothing. I see company vans pick up illegals for a day of work and yet the government does nothing to fine and shutdown these companies. It really is ridiculous.

Yes I know of the excuses, “We don’t have enough staff” or “We don’t want to raise taxes to take care of the problem”.  I mean I would support a tax increase if it would resolve the problem.  I have heard that “they are an important part of the economy doing the jobs we don’t want to do”.  Um… WTF, I bet I could find plenty of people willing to do the jobs if they were available and the people were not being paid $2.00 an hour.  It really is crazy how people justify illegal activities and they are no better then the junky who steals from someone because they need their next fix.  What makes it sad is the majority of the world don’t look at it as illegal acts, they look at it like “this is how it is.”  What would happen to the world if we looked at the drug business or bank robberies as “this is how it is”?

The only word to describe this problem is a virus.  A virus takes up resources, and overpopulates consuming more and more resources until it kills the host.  A virus can literally trick the body into thinking it is a good thing and should be kept around, keeping the body from fighting it off…  How long until this host is killed?

That is why I whole heartedly support Help Save Manassas.  I urge you to do the same..  and yes I’m open and ready to hear comments on the subject from any person who agrees or disagrees or really doesn’t care.

No Subject

So havn’t posted in awhile and to be honest I’m not all concerned about it either.  Maybe tomorrow I’ll post.

Myspace

So like I swore i would never get a myspace yet here I am. Gotta keep up with technology i guess. In case you are wondering about why my URL is called NonaTheNinja ….. um tough shit I can’t find the original post from 2006…

So it appears as soon as I join everyone saying “Get a Live Journal… Get a Live Journal” they all move over to some other freaking place called MySpace. Well screw that, I’m not going to myspace.
