Dec. 6/89
This is an e-mail forward that I got from a friend of mine. I don't know where the person that originated the forward found it, but I found its message rather ridiculous. Following is a copy of the forward I got with some remarks from the Editor (i.e., me). I have assumed that the author is a male. I acknowledge that it might very well be a woman, but since I have to choose a pronoun to use here, (damned English creators for not including a non-degenerative non-gender pronoun!) I'm choosing the male one cuz I feel like it. Also, I'm not racist against Caucasians either. I just have no tolerance for bigots.
April 13, 1999Asian Fremont Angers Bigot
By ?Recently in Fremont, CA (Bay Area), where I now live, a Caucasian- American resigned or retired from the school board. Immediately, Fremont's asian (note that "Asian" has a small "a")community, which now comprises about 25% of the city's population of 192,000, campaigned for one of their own to replace the outgoing member. The pressure became so intense that it became obvious no native-born American or White person would be considered for the opening. Sure enough, the slot went to a taiwan-native and taiwan-educated woman. (emphasis added)
("their own"... like we were some sort of club or something. I thought this was rather amusing...)
One reason ethnic pressures become so overbearing on our American culture that the numbers of these non-European foreigners has exploded.
I think this is one of those irregular verbs: I as assertive, you are aggressive, (s)he is overbearing.
Ethnic politicians use these numbers as weapons against us. I also work in Fremont as an electrical engineer.Ahhh... The ol' "us against them" stance. It's one of my favorites when it comes to prejudice or discrimination of any sort. "We are the TRUE American people, and we are good. We are the SUPERIOR RACE and are the ONLY PEOPLE allowed to live here. We must DRIVE AWAY the evil MINORITIES, because they are DIFFERENT." People have used it for ages, and the more you look at it, the more stupid and paranoid it seems. Yet, it is quite sadly very effectual. Mind you, if you wanna get right down to brass tacks, who are the TRUE Americans? Wouldn't they be....ummmm....the NATIVE AMERICANS? Nahhh...They only live on tiny little reserves... Oh! Wait! Who put them there? Weren't they...IMMIGRANTS???
On my 9-mile drive to work through Fremont's streets every morning, I see elderly asian immigrants EVERYWHERE. They waddle around, bent over, bowlegged, tired- and confused-looking.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I seem to get the impression that this guy thinks that elderly Asian immigrants are little less than animals. He could be talking about poor pitiful looking cows for the difference it makes to him. Let's educate our author shall we? Most seniors, regardless, of race don't have the same amount of calcium in their bones as they grow older. It's called "osteoporosis." It makes their bones weaker. It makes them walk more bent over. They go slower as a result. They get tired more easily. Go to a nursing home sometime. See how people walk. Note their colour and race. Do you see a difference? Do you think this makes them any less human? The answer, if you don't try to fudge the data, is NO. Also as is the case with seniors, not all of them are like this. My grandmother is over 70 and she is still very sharp, and walks upright. Sure, she's a little slower than she used to be, but she sure as hell doesn't waddle. And she's one example in a million.
They don't speak English, don't know a damn thing about our country, and have no desire to ever learn.
This I am willing to concede to our author here. I do find it a little shocking that some Asian immigrants refuse to at least learn English when they move here just so that they can become more independent. However, not all Asian immigrants are like that! Some might also argue that as seniors, they are older, and since the learning process tends to slow down, they have no desire to take up what they see as a lost cause. Besides, if there isn't a Chinatown they can go to, their children (who you must note, do learn English)can provide for them.And yet these creatures, (Mooo!) with their ever-growing numbers, keep White Americans from being considered to be on the Fremont school board. This is outrageous! Outrageous? Just to want their own needs and the needs of the children and grandchildren voiced in the schools their paying money and taxes towards. Gee... The last time I checked, the American Bill of Rights didn't say that was a crime...
Australia has or had a law stating that no person over the age of 50 could immigrate to Australia. We need that law in the U.S. These people get here because their son or daughter got a degree from an American college, then got hired into one of our companies (probably a company that got colonized by asian immigrants). They see our country as a retirement home.
Yes! Let's make a law to prevent a mother or father from spending their retirement years with their grandchildren and children. Let's leave them uncared for in their own countries! That's a GREAT idea! While we're at it, let's herd ALL old ppl of every race and color and drive them all into the sea. That'll take care of the whole retirement problem for sure.Let's face facts: Folks in asia have a different set of morals than us (sometimes I think they completely lack morals).
This is rather ironic. This sentiment was echoed by the Japanese about Americans after hearing about the Japanese exchange student that got his head blown off when he knocked on some guy's door to ask the way to a party. If those are white American morals, I'd be the first in line to say that, yes, Asians DO have different set of morals. Back in de ol' country, Asians regahd it as inhospitable and rude to shoot a man who comes to de door.However, I have enough Caucasian friends to know that the morals they have are more or less in sync with mine. Two examples: We hate injustice. And we hate bigots. I don't know what planet you're writing from, author dear, but it sure as hell ain't Earth.
They think that as long as they can get away with something, it's OK.
Is your slate clean? I doubt it.Can you imagine people in Kansas coming up with devious schemes (Has this author been watching too many conspiracy films?) to immigrate to china or india? Isn't that unimaginable? I think that shows a big difference between East and West.
Okay...I don't know what's in Kansas that makes them so weird, but doesn't our author read magazines? I don't think a lot of people will immigrate to China or India perhaps, but there are definitely job opportunities over there that would make most engineers drool. Many people from North America (particularly Engineers, and many of them Caucasian) MOVE to these countries and work there. They decide to keep their citizenship maybe, because American and Canadian citizenships have their privileges. In fact, I will bet dollars to donuts that's one of the reasons why Asians come here in droves. Plus, the only difference his little example shows is that the West is more prosporous than the East. I don't see anything about morals.Not to say that asians are all bad, they have some admirable traits, (Thanks for the compliment, you condescending prick.) but their sense of right and wrong is clearly different from ours.
I think it's wrong to shoot a guy in the head in cold blood and/or take his money and credit cards without his consent. Do you, dear author, think differently?Another common and disgusting scene in Fremont are the aforementioned elderly folks pushing baby strollers, holding little chinese or indian kids.
"Sacriligeous!!! We must put a stop to this at ONCE! Imagine the NERVE of these grandparent wanting to PUSH THEIR GRANDCHILDREN'S STROLLERS AROUND! Just WHERE do they think they get off doing THAT??? And HOLDING them?? Well! That's just got to be stopped! There's no telling WHAT our society is coming to!" WAKE UP, dear author! Where do YOU think you get off setting up double standards here??
That infuriates me to no end!! It's a symbol our immigration disaster. More than that, it's clear evidence of an ethnic, cultural, and economic attack on the United States.
I must remember to write this guy an e-mail: "Dear Sir/Madam, you have found out our little secret for taking over America. You must be destroyed. Regards, Chinese goverment" Besides I don't know why he's so upset. His ancestors got this land by attacking this land ethnically, culturally and economically (and killing off a whole bunch of Native Americans). Oh Right! That's different. They were Caucasian, so they had every RIGHT!!!
These parents know that once they have kids on our soil, they're in for good, then they can bring over their parents and put them on SSI (welfare).
Maybe he should try for governor. He could put a ban on all births by any race other than good, honest, red-blooded American Caucasians. $500 fine for the first child, and $100 for every subsequent child. Maybe I'm exaggerating a little. Maybe he'll be generous and let the Native Americans pro-create as well. (I doubt it though.)These numbers multiply...the ultimate result for Americans like us is disenfranchisement, dispossession, displacement, higher housing prices, fewer housing options, less open space, more traffic, shopping malls that get asianized, and cultural annihilation.
Wouldn't this happen anyway regardless of whether there's immigration or not? (well, except the bit about Asianization, cool coin word that it is) I mean, it's not like Caucasians have stopped procreating, right? (or black, latin Americans, etc for that matter) So, like, why are you blaming all those poor Asians for all of this? Are you trying to be another Hitler? And as for culture, aren't there enough Caucasians out there to keep that culture alive? And enough "Caucasianized" stores (Big example: MacDonald's)? Or are you that insecure about your own race?If the Bay Area isn't like Tibet, in the sense that the native American culture is being wiped by hordes of invading chinese, then someone should give me a better analogy.
Boy, this guy knows about as much about world events as he does about us animals he refers to as Asian! If your little corner of the world was anything like Tibet, you wouldn't be complaining, buddy. You'd be...let's see, how to put it delicately...DEAD. I don't necessarily agree with everything the Chinese government does, but I do know that they don't like dissidence. So stop making comparisons that aren't there. Let's see if I can think of a better analogy for you... How 'bout Americans and British Caucasians moving over to places like Hong Kong and Indonesia, taking up the best jobs with the fattest pay and having their kids fill up all the best private schools and using the natives there as their personal servants? Oh, sorry! That's different, isn't it? It's different if they're Caucasian because Caucasians a race superior to all else on this planet!One last parting thought. The Native American culture isn't there to be wiped out any more. The Europeans took care of that about 400 years ago.
