Life in the Banana Patch

A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.

"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell

Fortress Amerikkka - Day 267!
The Rise of the Klan

I have been criticized by some for equating the illegal immigration issue with racism. I noted that no one is trying to put a fence along the Northern Border, no one is demanding Cajuns stop speaking French, and no one is trying to put an end to local Oktoberfest celebrations. Turns out, I was right.

Membership in the Ku Klux Klan has increased thanks to illegal immigration, same-sex marriages and urban crime, says the Anti-Defamation League.

I, for one, welcome our new Klan overlords. I'd like to remind them as a trusted Internent personality, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground gold mines.

Praise Jebus!
