Many of you who are familiar with The Write Guyz know that I typically tend to keep a close eye on Arizona and many of the issues that stem out of that state. Arizona, right now, can truly be considered a "trial and error" state when it comes to new reforms on immigration laws. Because of this the state has become the center of controversy throughout the country. But, I actually don't want to make this post about those controversies, nor about the state of Arizona itself.
Unlike many of the big media outlets, I am not going to sit here and try to understand why things happen. No need to look into people's past nor blame incidents on passed transgressions. Really, what's the point of doing that? Leave it to the media to add fuel to an already raging fire. There is no need for me to regurgitate what many of you have already heard.
The real point is that 6 innocent people lost their lives because of one despicable person. NO matter his motives the outcome will NEVER change! No one deserves to have their lives taken away from them PERIOD, which is exactly what happened in the desert.
We need to take a step back and really look at the big picture everyone. Start looking at the little things, and how our country, little by little, is taking a course for the worse that needs to be stopped NOW! These stories are typical stories that come out of third world countries, not of the United States. These crimes should not be tolerated and the justice system should make that very clear. No one in any sort of political power should ever fear for their lives or the lives of their loved ones. We as a people need to start becoming more understanding of one another, and really take time to listen to what we all have to say.
I look at other countries and hear about the things that happen on a daily basis and think to myself, are we headed in that direction? This shooting leads me to believe that we are. The time to act is now. I know many of you might laugh when I say this, but all you need is love! If we really want what is best for our country, the country where are children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren will live, then we need to start understanding that we are in this fight together. This message especially goes out to the individuals who come from an immigrant background. Do you really think that when S**T hits the fan your "mother country" is going to come to your rescue? F*** no. No other country does what we do, we need to get our S**t together and start acting like the Countrymen we are. Stop with all this senseless violence against one another. It's time for us to realize that divided we will fall, and only united we will stand!
My prayers to the families of the individuals who were hurt during this tragedy. Prayers for my country and my fellow Countrymen as well.
I'm proud to call myself an American of Mexican decent, heck even of everyone in this country wants to label me a Mexican out of their own ignorance, then I will take pride in that as well.
BUT, here is what I take the most pride in........that I've only, and will forever, pledged my allegiance to one country and that is the GREAT OL' UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. That right there my Chubbies can no one, and will no one ever take away from me!
Chub Out!
