i ama veteran and this pisses me off

I think after trying to talk with them about the music, beer cans, flags etc..and being blown off time after time by your neighbors and the landlord, I would make several phone calls or send a few letters to:

 

1. Code enforcement since there is a limit on the number of occupants that can live in a house/apartment. Support it with pictures and other info

 

2. Police so they can also document that they are disturbing the peace. I would position a game type camera to have pictures if they destroyed my property.

 

3. Border Patrol, is you know they are "illegal"

 

4. local news media., not that I have any faith in the media after this election cycle but they can put pressure on your landlord to "fix" the issue.

On subjects of landlords mine finally did something I got a brand new furnace and my gas gets turned on today! I fill like a kid in a candy store I will finally be able to cook. However the chimney is still there but the new furnace vents thru pcv pipe. It is a 92 unit the guy also put flex pipe on my stove. So after suggestion of switching to electric furnace to get around chimney not even a week later he got it done. Now I need to get right with him. The Mexicans we have around here generally do there things at there relatives and the parks. The islanders generally use one side of the park and man they have some really food!!!

Air Ready, I too admire Teddy Roosevelt a a great American President!!! I especially appreciate his outlook on immigration, let them come with open arms as long as they learn our language and customs and become American Citizens and become productive to society! There IS a reason he was chosen for Mount Rushmore...

Well by customs (I was sort of paraphrasing) I meant obeying our laws, showing respect for our country, honoring our flag and national anthem, etc. and not necessarily referring to ethnicity. Something that has been lost is the fact that this Nation was originally organized as a CHRISTIAN nation with Biblical values and standards, but that does not mean you had to be a Christian to be a citizen, however in the beginning most were just that. People are confused when they hear that this country was established to be free to worship as you please, what it really meant was freedom from the control of the Church of England and it's control over things. What it is today as opposed to what it was even before 1776 when we declared our Independence from the rule of the British government is quite a different story. Now we are a nation torn between liberal thinking "anything goes" attitudes and the conservative view of getting back to the principles that our government and "conserve" the values and standards we were established on.

 

Anyways, the gist of what Teddy Roosevelt was saying is that this nation was open to anyone wishing to join but they were expected to follow our rules and learn our language, NOT try to change our country into something THEY want! Of course he respected their customs and was not trying to dictate exactly how they thought or acted, or how they worshiped either for that matter! We are guaranteed freedom of speech which means we may, without persecution, express our beliefs! We are not expected to be government clones with no mind of our own!

 

 

Geez, all this all because I was agreeing with Air Ready about Teddy Roosevelt being a great president, and as a veteran myself who was willing to give my life to protect our (once) great nation and preserve our freedoms, yes it galls me to see her torn down...

Have visited a lot of countries over the course of my life,,, went there and had a BLAST by living by this rule = "When in Rome.....".. Respected their way of life, got easily accepted (even though crash courses in learning foreign languages never was one of my high points) and enjoyed the cultural differences.. Most, if not all, of the off shore places I have visited had boundries about becoming a Citizen of their land. One was even surrounded by guard towers with machine gun nests in them and mine fields so you couldnt get in even if ya wanted to and their people couldnt get out - really felt sorry of em,, watching em walking around over there.. Left those places HONORED to have met the folks I did, HONORED that they were willing to show me what life was REALLY like in their way of life.. Gotta say though,, I have never ever lost the "feeling" one gets when they return to their home soil..

Bottom line is I think the unique way of life we have here in the States has been so corrupted by cheap sell outs from some not so honest people and by foreign influences that have never understood (or appreciated) what its like to live in land where Individual Liberty is a way of life.. Those influences have eroded our homeland to the point that it's hard for even some U.S. citizens to identify with what we really are suppose to be - hard to expect modern day immigrants or foreigners to figure it out if even our countrymen cant.. It would AMAZING to see a return of our original way of life but thats a stretch when ya think about it. OldGoat,,, sorry for what your going thru brother and, IMHO, finding yourself caught up in the mess that I am talking about.. Gotta say,, I have TONS of Hispanic/Mexican friends who would NEVER act like that and would be first in line to stand against that type of disrespect. Wonder if you have discovered a hot bed of people who are illegally in our country..

They are illegal in my area. Had 15 buses about 4 yrs ago when the feds came in.
