Let’s bring back slavery.

 

I’m sick of people running down America.

All that hippie crap makes it hard for a man to breathe.

Leave it to them and they would pass laws making it illegal to do anything at all.

For almost 40 years someone’s been telling me I’m not good enough, moral enough or that I’m just down right mean.

But I guess the last straw was people losing their jobs on account of a Goddamn owl.

Sure, I’ll admit we might be cutting down a few too many trees.

I’ve even gotten used to having two bins for trash because some people say I ought to recycle.

Yet when a man can’t earn a living because an owl needs space the size the state of Washington to mate in, that’s where I draw the line.

Nature nuts want everything to be just like it was when the world began, and would have us crawling into the oceans rather than out of it the way we did.

Next thing you know, we’ll have to issue an environmental impact statement just to blow our nose.

Or register where we put our ass to shit just like we have to register our guns.

I figure if they love nature all so much, maybe we should find some woods somewhere, stick them all in its naked with sticks and stones and see how well they get on in their perfect world.

For Christ’s sake. Even the Indians – those nature nuts talk about all the time – shot game and chopped down trees.

That, of course, reminds me of another sore point with those folks.

Not a week goes by when one of them isn’t blaming white people for killing off the Indians. They’ve even harped on Columbus so bad, I’m sure he’s sorry he bothered crossing the ocean to discover this stinking place.

But to listen to the hippie types, the Indians were happy little folk prancing peacefully through the woods instead of savages who cut each other’s throats and raped each other’s women.

We whites didn’t do to the Indian what the Indian wasn’t doing to other Indians, we just did it better.

And when those hippies aren’t harping on what we did to the Indians, they’re blaming us for what we did to black people.

Sure some white people treated black people bad. But it was white people who also helped set them free.

If you listen to the hippies, nobody did nothing, and it happened all by itself.

Now we get blamed for them not having jobs, drug addiction, being too fat or skinny, living in rotten homes and all that. Things are so bad in some places, you figure they might have been better off if they’d stayed on the plantations.

If some politician was brave enough, maybe we could bring back slavery and give those people jobs again.

Heck, we could have them fix our roads and bridges, and do all those other jobs nobody wants to do any more so we send the jobs over seas

We would save taxpayers billions because we wouldn’t have to hired crooked contractors all the time.

Maybe we could have them shoot all the owls so we wouldn’t have to worry about how many trees we cut down.

It sounds about right to me.

But I’m sure some hippie jerk will find some flaw in it.

They always do.
