.Since I am not able to 100% verify who the author of this email that I received and decided to post on the downlow is, I have taken ANY names off. I would hate for someone famous to think I was trying to slander them and put words in their mouth!!

I like big cars, big boats, big motorcycles, big houses and big campfires.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some governmental stooge with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts for squirting out babies.

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game.

I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts!

I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.

I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of
anything except numbers.

I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off.

When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70%of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the law of statistics.

I know what sex is, and there are not varying degrees of it. If I received sex from one of my subordinates in my office, it wouldn't be a private matter or my personal business. It would be "FIRED" immediately!

I believe that if you are selling me a milk shake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen you should have to speak English!. My father and grandfather should not have died in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.

I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry a$$ if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the order" freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines.

I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation recount votes when needed. I know what the definition of lying is.

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.
We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document and open to their interpretations.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor. I know wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television, and that doesn't stop you from watching them. I believe a self-righteous liberal or conservative with a cause is more dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better and put your name on the building.

It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid and smack his/her little butt when necessary and say "NO".

I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And please stay home until that new lip ring heals, I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me french fries!


I am sick of "Political Correctness" and of all the suck ups that go along with it. I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa, so how can they be "African Americans"?

Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and no where else.

And if you don't like my point of view, tough! GET OVER IT!!! WAKE UP WHILE YOU STILL HAVE A COUNTRY TO WAKE UP TO

I'm sure RM wasn't trying to enhance anything, she just posted what she read. And on something like this, it doesn't matter who said it. It just good that someone said it.

I guess the next time someone wants to post something that someone else said they should put it like this -

** note** someone said this but I don't want to infringe on anyone's rights so I'll just leave all names off.

so know your saying that Andy Rooney is the only person in the country that said that. Have you seen all of Foxworthys shows? Is it not possible that he could of said the samething, or did Rooney copyright it?

Also read the whole thing, it says that Andy never said it.

RM. for what it's worth....political correctness is like a unicorn---everybody thinks they exist, but everybody has a different description of one, and your description is never the right one according to theirs.

thats right and wise men dont play leap frog with Unicorns. I'll choose to be politically incorrect forever, state my views, and let the chips fall where they may, rather than close minded and argumentative with everyone. You don't make too many friends by arguing. For example, I stated my opinions of Referee's that me and some of my classmates share, when someone very impolitely rammed in with some blabbity about I didn't have a clue.

Last time I checked a clue wasn't required to form an opinion, and, apparently, the same can be said for an argument as this post is a good example.

It doesn't matter who it was by. There's no way of telling how many posts on da' low aren't exactly original ideas. Who cares? Its not like she straight out claimed the ideas for herself. Drop it like its hot, and post on. Life's hard, get a helmet and play some football.

Vive la' Resistance.
