(disrespectful) REFUGEES GO AWAY, or at least out of my city

[HumorMe]

Its amazing how people care for people in other countries more then they care about people here at home.

Most of these refugees are african american right? You do realize that very few of them even came here by choice? How fucked is that, we haul people here as slaves, then pass laws to segregate them, then change out minds, but then don't give a shit when they end up poor? Go figure.

Lestat,

WTF?

Really? I thought the oldest person in the world died last week at 115? We haven't brought slaves over her in over 140 years? Better call Guiness. It's not about care. Its about get off your lazy ass and work. Its how my family made it. My great-grandfather came over here with the clothes on his back from Poland, busted his ass in a coal mine until he died hunched over at 73, to provide for his family. By the way, we are descended from slaves, too. Just a lot further back.

But it seems that the chains have not been taken off my friend. For you not to acknowlege this leads me to believe that you are a little off with reality.


Please don't compare the enslavement of Africans versus those of European decent or any other. Big difference in all. Some with more lasting residual effect.

You do realize that the slaves that were hauled over here were sold to the slave traders by their fellow countrymen of the same color right?!!?!?

All of my ancestors came over for various reasons... a better life (Irish) and to flee occupation (Poland).
Go through any history books and you will see that Irish Americans built the foundation of this country.
Even so... they were not allowed in most public facilities. Interestingly, slaves were.
Life is what you make of it.

And all these years....i thought those of African decent had it tough. Never heard a thing about women of Irish American decent being raped by Thomas Jefferson either. Nor did I see one darn movie or clip where fire hoses were turned on them....nor anything on young children having to be escorted by the national guard just to go to school. Shame that all this happened yet not one mentioning of it in the history books.

Do a keyword search on Slaves...and tell me which ethnic group is mentioned more.

What about the lynchings ? Did the KKK go after Irish Americans too ?


Read the threads from the past couple of days...


it's evident who is the most hated.

read the thread above my friend. He was referencing his ancestory and the plight of Irish Americans and even mentioned how they were denied entrance to many establishments. don't think he was speaking in todays nonspatial continuum that is measured in terms of events which succeed one another, rather something of the past.

Bor,

These people are staying in Houston, and BR, and wherever else they ended up.

Oddly, New Orleans might end up wealthier per capita than it was before the storm.

Life is so funny sometimes.

yep.

Like Freeballin, I salute your efforts. But that's every where in every city. I doubt everyone in Houston is as upstanding and hard working as you. Does Houston or any other city need more lowlifes? No.

There will always be weak people (they come in all forms & shapes). Someone has to be the Alpha or Omega of society (or the Beta, Gamma, Lambda). How you choose to live your life is what matters the most.

lets not cloud the issues here.

and that is that a lot of the people havoc talked about were ungrateful, disrespectful and feels like people owe them.

i think it goes without saying that society offers all walks of life in every city. thats not the issue here.

I've worked (volunteered) the Astrodome, Reliant and the George R. Brown refugee relief off and on since Saturday. I have never come across so many ungrateful people in my life, or should I say "people who are just looking for handouts", constantly complaining and having the attitude of "the world owes me something". Yes, some are grateful, some want to work, some want to re-build their lives, but many are living better than they did in N.O., and a major majority of them live off the govt. in some form. I have no tolerance for lazy/slothful people and just walked away from it yesterday. 300 of them were given free housing (apartments) in the southwest area of Houston, what do they do (?), go and loot a local grocery store, this is my city (born and raised), respect it or get out, these phuckers could actually change the economy here in Houston, the same economy that is pretty stagnant/reliable that has enabled my hard working ass to retire in two years at the tender age of 31. I may organize a "get the phuck out of my city" campaign very soon for these parasites. Every day I see the same people doing the same thing, laying around, waiting for the next meal, not looking for any employment, do all of these imports fall under this description, no, but "most" do without a doubt. The media does not show what I have described but I have been a part of it for the last days and find myself completely blown away by the ignorance and disrespect. For those trying to get back on their feet in all ways possible I respect you in the utmost fashion and wish I could help you even more, for the ones I have described above I wish it was legal to crack your skull with a iron bat and give you each free tracheotomies.

Summary: Respectful, grateful, wanting to rebuild = stay.......opposite of that = leave, don't EVER come back

looting? unbelieable.

and fema was bringing cruise ships to galveston for people. people actually said they didnt want to stay there.

Here's a funny analysis.

No one in Beverly Hills, Hamptons or Greenwhich, CT are volunteering to house thousands of refugees in their neighborhoods.

Many of these people stayed around cuz they saw a great looting opportunity when everyone left. The PC media just doesn't have the balls to say that.

Hard to feel sorry for people who had a hand in their own misfortune as a result.
