Real Quick, Are You In The Navy Or Any Other For Of Military Right Now? Have You Ever Been?

Real quick, are you in the Navy or any other for of Military right now? Have you ever been?

And did you know that not everyone on welfare is trying to suck money out of the Govt? (Is that a shocker? Cause I feel like that’s a shocker to you) And that kids brought over to the US actually have no say in whether they are brought with their families or not? They are KIDS who want to be with their parents, who want to give them a better life than the one they had in a previous country. Would you know what that’s like? Are you a child of an illegal immigrant? Are you in a position, at least somewhat similar to this, where you actually don’t make enough money to support your household?

And please don’t give me that B.S about ‘well they should just get a better job!’ Cause it’s not that simple. There are single parents out there working three or more jobs to support their household, who STILL can’t make enough to pay the bills. Quitting one and trying to find a better paying one? That’s fucking hard. And you might not even find a better paying job, that doesn’t require a degree in something.

‘Well go back to school!’ College cost a lot of fucking money that these parents might not have, and a lot of time they certainly don’t have if they do happen to be working more than a few jobs at a time.

Have you forgotten what America was supposed to be for immigrants? ‘Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses.’ Remember that shit? It’s on the Statue of Liberty. You know, that thing that thousands of immigrants saw when they first came to the U.S back in the day?

And you know how Italians were called WOP’s? That means ‘WithOutPapers’. You know what that means? Oh yes. Italians, white people, were illegal immigrants at one point.

You do know illegal immigrants have been here for centuries, right? Like, technically the illegal immigrants are everyone except the Native Americans? (Hence the ‘Native’?) But I digress.

Does your father know he’s raising a heartless asshole?

And if being progressive and understanding of unique situations (a ‘Lefty’ as you so eloquently put it) makes me a clown, then boy, I’m-

Real Quick, Are You In The Navy Or Any Other For Of Military Right Now? Have You Ever Been?

Hey, real fuckin quick:

My dad is in the military, Navy to be specific. He is out at sea right now. He and my mom had been messaging back and forth for a while, so when she asked if he was coming home (jokingly) he said, even if they were turning the ship around, the tugboats would have to pull them into dock.

But the thing is, he’s supposed to be coming home soon in the first place, before Trumps shit show.

The Tugboat workers are federal employees, who, because of the government shit down( my phone auto corrected from ‘shut’ to ‘shit’, but I saw no real difference, so we’re keeping it.) aren’t working. But my point is, someone else’s mom or dad in the Navy/Military can’t come home right now because the federal workers aren’t there. And damnit, I miss my dad, and I’m sure there are plenty of kids and teens who miss their parents too.

So if Trump doesn’t get his shit together and take control of his fucking party, bitch, imma go to DC myself and fuck some shit up. Because if the tugboats aren’t being operated, he and the crew will have to sit somewhere in the water off shore, and wait for who-knows-how-long. And just for a heads up to anyone who didn’t know, regular military workers like my dad, aren’t getting paid till this is over.

And honestly, it’s fucking despicable how CHIP and DACA (two amazing, life saving programs) are being held hostage by Mich McCoward and the other republican representatives. Fuck them. Honestly. They could have funded either of those at any given time, but they didn’t because they want to hold a part of the American population hostage unless their wishes to deport Mexican-American citizens are met.

I really fucking hate the American political system right now. And I don’t see why any reasonable person would approve of anything the Republicans are trying to pull right now.

Please don’t lose track of your children in the pool area! I know it’s a bit difficult if they’re splashing and moving around, but the thing is, if you don’t watch them, we can’t ever really be sure who their parents are because our eyes are on the water, not on you. And as horrible as it sounds, they could be kidnapped. So while you tan, be sure to bring your glasses, and keep and eye on your small children. 😬👍

When there’s a small park next to the pool, you can bet your ass we’re going on that swing set.
