#Immigration

I am an Immigrant Descendant, Irish- American and Proud of it. I Support Legal #Immigration for those who Support this Country, its People, its Liberties, and its Laws. 

I agree that admission to the United States should be treated as a High Honor - done properly and Lawfully.
America is not an Escape.
America is a way of Life that Celebrates Freedom. This Freedom grows for all Americans as we get to know our Diverse people and the many beliefs and cultures in America. Freedom includes the void of imposition of any language, culture, belief, faith, law, etc. Our country still strives to achieve this within our own borders, for Americans. Freedom is an Entitlement all Americans have.
Anyone can become an American and join the lifestyle of Freedom. But please do so with Honor, Grace, and Pride. 

Just like the ways my Ancestors had to do it. 

Irish Discrimination and Stereotypes

Stop Talking In Slogans

People are behaving badly and have been on both "sides" of the whatever for 20+ years. During the Reagan administration there at least seemed to be more unity and cohesion. Politics have become too personal for people. We can't agree that someone may not be the best for a job or a (insert whatever justifiable/provable label) proven criminal without that “side” acting personally persecuted or that their beliefs/rights/morals are being attacked. The two sides (liberals and conservatives) are talking in slogans (“love conquers hate”, “one man, one woman”) instead of having real dialogue about issues, problems, and “sides”. And yes, both sides have acted out depending on which alternate side is in power at the time. The media is filled with “haters” and “trolls” who accentuate all of this. So why are we playing on these platforms, only dividing us more?

Buying a ticket and taking a seat to a circus of clowns doesn’t mean you get input on the show. If you want real change, real progress – start by reserving comment and not reacting every time a politician takes a shit on a media platform.

Give Peace, Prosperity, and Positivity the same attention given to Politics, Power, and Protest.

Then, what stands to win? 

Media

#Value

Instead of getting that paper, find real value and real substance. 

Why conform to what society, the government, corporate and big business, wants or expects?

Material possessions, things, more stuff, bigger, newer, latest, luxurious, brand, labels.

Don’t allow yourself to be a slave to the system.

Always seek your spirit and live for your soul.

Stay true to yourself hold value to what no one can take away.

Balls2SayIt - The Book!

An equal opportunity offender of gays, rednecks, women, Christians, millennials, and people of color shares his brazen rants, jokes, and random thoughts suitable for the age of social media. The slogan worthy one-liners on drinking, sex, stupidity, stereotypes, rudeness, apathy, and anti-social behavior are political, provocative, immature, and hilarious.

Tithing

In church there is much discussion of tithing (one-tenth part of something, paid as a contribution to a religious organization). Church leaders refer to the income I’ve worked for as my “treasure” and state I should “give my money to God”. I didn’t happen upon my earnings, it is not a treasure. I traded time and labor for my money. What is God going to do with this coin and paper? I can donate it to the needy myself. 

People Are of No Color

We as a society need to stop associating people with colors. No one is actually white or black, red or yellow. Black and white aren’t even real colors. White is a mixture of all colors through light. Black is the absence of color. People are from different races, ethnicities, and locations – they are not “colored” or “people of color”. No black people, no white people. Either no one is a person of color or everyone is.

An Atheist Finds Forgiveness

My journey takes me to Forgiveness. True Forgiveness. I start with Jesus Christ. I am forgiving him for what many of his followers do and letting go of the grudge I held against him for it. In doing so, I am becoming closer to the man, the prophet, and the truth of his teachings. I am not becoming a Christian nor will I ever. I am becoming more enlightened.
