To answer that last question you also include rhetorically ("I think they will respect hate speech laws...").
No, I don't, and based upon what is easily observable today by many among many racial groups in the U.S., they don't now.
I lived in Hawaii for a long time and I can tell you that as a "white" person, there is outright disdain and utter lack of courtesy bordering on the outright destructive to and about white people there, by many who are of mixed ethnicity and just badly mannered, using the "racial" thing to mistreat who they can. And in Hawaii, white folks are the minority and they are mistreated terribly.
Except when you're an obvious tourist staying at a hotel, in which case they will sugar you to spend more. But, in general population in Hawaii (just go into most retail there and experience it for yourself if you are white), they openly revile white people.
Let's see...Hawaii is today populated by about (I approximate) 70% Asian/Polynesian, 20% White, 10% Japanese.
Same thing applies for most of California today, as to behaviors. The term, "hate speech" ONLY occurs when it is being levied against and about white people. And, lastly, the only time I EVER hear the dreaded "n" word is by black people, and the ONLY racial epithets I EVER hear are by Mexicans in CA about white people and in Hawaii, by the 70% about white people (but they also revile the Japanese, for an odd turn of events).
I was feeling weary and overwhelmed so took a nap. A car pulled up outside, and what do I hear, "Viva la Mexico", and "Hasta la vista", I think. Man, I hope it isn't somebody coming to see me. The car drove off and there was a knock at the door. It was the person I mentioned in an earlier post, and we had a nice visit, tried to keep it low key (she is into Christianity as an answer to all her problems in a big way, and I try to be supportive as best I can). So I took her and got her something to eat, not much in the house at the moment because it's been hot and I don't feel much like cooking or eating, took her to her apartment to gather up her things, then took her to her sister's where she is to stay for the four days she is under house arrest. Heh heh. Not laughing at her, myself. I swear I was going mad and might be having auditory hallucinations.
On another note, I was sitting at my computer minding my own business yesterday when a nice big white newer car pulled up (don't know what kind it was, kind of one of those newer SUV-type things that sticks out at the back, and two guys were out talking, "no, get them higher." I looked out and saw two guys (my ethncity) stealing my apples and carrying off half a grocery bag full, they are green yet, and it pi$$ed (uh oh had to edit that as I originally wrote it) me off because they hadn't the decency to ask. If people ask politely, I usually generously comply so long as they dont climb the darn tree like I catch the kids doing because guess who will get sued if one of the aging branches breaks off and somebody gets hurt?
So in a very little way, I know how those property owners feel along our southern border, but I didn't need that incident to drive it home, and yes, I'm royally ticked off that some illegals bet the ranch and got it, at least part of it.
I'm drained and don't know if I can keep my thoughts straight enough to write anything more that is anything approaching coherent tonight.
My world has gone mad!
