"Build the wall, crime will fall" was the bumper sticker on many a car in the Intel parking lot in Chandler.
But there were thousands of Hispanic individuals working there. I was never afraid of any of them; every one of them were nice, hardworking people. I've also had dozens working on my home in all manors; painting, landscaping, A/C work, construction. Never met a single one I couldn't trust or had any suspicians about. Immigrants living the so-called "American dream".
But you know who I fear now??
The white Trumptard Repukes everywhere in Arizona, including in my own neighborhood. The natives. The ones wearing the Chinese-made red MAGA hats with Trump flags in their yards. The ones still with the "Let's Go Branden" bumper stickers on their cars and trucks.
Those are the ones I fear. I used to put up Democratic signs in my yard each election; no more after multiple vandalisms.
I fear for my family because these assholes are members of a cult. A cult hell-bent on the destruction of our democracy to please a traitorous, ignorant, lying ASSHOLE. The one's drooling over having a dictatorship. The racists. The one's who have PROVEN they will resort to violence if they don't get their way. The one's too fucking stupid to understand they are only hurting themselves in the long run.
America is at a crossroads.
"Build a wall, crime will fall" indeed. How do I build a wall right down my street to protect myself from THEM?
