How often do you think Americans obey the LAW?
- Stealing stuff from motel rooms...
- Stealing office supplies from work...
- Driving faster than the posted speed limits...
- Not telling the truth on their income taxes...
- Not paying court ordered alimony...
- Not honoring a verbal contract...
- Sharing trade secrets with competitors...
- Trying to bribe a police officer...
- Smoking marijuana in a state where it is not legal...
- Buying illegal drugs like cocaine/heroin...
- Lying to an officer of the court...
I am sure there are several more items that I have not listed or have overlooked but you get the point I am trying to make, don't you?
We CLAIM to be a nation of laws and yet obeying these laws is the last thing on our minds.
Why do I mention this?
Because we are complaining about illegal immigrants breaking the law to come into this country when American citizens break the law all the time.
I've heard people tell me that our laws are there to be broken... and we hope that we don't get caught.
When you get right down to it, America is no better or worse than any other country in the world.... our problem is that we want the rest of the world to think that we are better.
