#1 Illegal Immigrants Poem

Post by Robert Walper »

I cross ocean, poor and broke,
Take bus, see employment folk.
Nice man treat me good in there,
Say I need to see welfare.
Welfare say, "You come no more,
We send cash right to your door."
Welfare checks,they make you wealthy,
Medicaid it keep you healthy!
By and by, I got plenty money,
Thanks to you, Canadian dummy.
Write to friends in motherland,
Tell them 'come fast as you can.'
They come in turbans and Ford trucks,
I buy big house with welfare bucks
They come here, we live together,
More welfare checks, it gets better!
Fourteen families, they moving in,
But neighbor's patience wearing thin.
Finally, white guy moves away,
Now I buy his house, and then I say,
Find more aliens for house to rent."
And in the yard I put a tent.
Send for family they just trash,
But they, too, draw the welfare cash!
Everything is very good,
And soon we own the neighborhood.
We have hobby it's called breeding,
Welfare pay for baby feeding.
Kids need dentist? Wife need pills?
We get free! We got no bills!
Canadian crazy! He pay all year,
To keep welfare running here.
We think Canada darn good place!
Too darn good For the white man race.
If they no like us, they can scram,
Got lots of room in Pakistan.

I see racism is alive and well in you Robert. When you arent living up to the worst stereotypes of Albertans you should consider that most immigrants come to this country to work and build better lives. Or we could judge every Pakistani based on welfare cheats, every Italian based on the Mafia, and every Irishman on drunken hooligans.
It's not that I'm unforgiving, it's that most of the people who wrong me are unrepentant assholes.

My objection to illegal immagrantion has nothing to do with Welfare. As in the vast majority of states in the US they cannot draw such benfits. My objection is that the citizens of the nation are the ones who deserve to decide who they allow into their country. I do not have the inherent right to move in Canada for example anymore than Walper has the right to move into my home and set up camp in my living room.

To suggest that anyone who can sneak in somehow deserves to be here is dismissing the right of peoples to make their own laws and run their own nations. (Don't even think of tossing this in my face later in regards to despotism, one guy calling the shots and shooting people for disagreeing is not the people making their own laws).

However most immagraents work. They work the shitty jobs that most people hustle their asses off to avoid. The vast majority of them may be alot of things, but lazy isn't one of them.

That being said, this was about has accurate has a Al Jeeraza covering of the Iraq War and saddly nowhere near as funny. Honestly about has funny has dry toast, and I need to say sorry to the toast on that. Walper you've posted some funny ones in your time, this wasn't one of them.

Guys, I posted this in the humor forum because I thought it was funny.

Any claim I'm racist is utter bullshit. Hell, I worked with several individuals of East Indian descent, one I currently consider a very good acquaintance, a hard worker and a good family man (who also happens to have a great sense of humor, unlike some people).

You apparently don't seem to grasp I feel free to make jokes or laugh at any group of people, regardless of minority status, ethical backgrounds, beliefs or whatever. That's because I don't discriminate.

As to my last comment, it was not meant to encompass an entire or specific group of people, but more a jab at those who do abuse the system (regardless of who they are or where they are from). But in the interests of appeasing those with such sensitive skins, I'll even remove the comment.

So lay off the holier than thou accusations. Thank you.
