Emma Lazrus' sonnet, The New Colossus, inscribed at the base of the Statute of Liberty reads, in part: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. It does not read: "Give me your murderers, your robbers, Your filthy masses of criminals looking for suckers to victimize." It does not say, "Come and rape me and destroy this nation." It does not say, "You have a right to come this country." It does not say, "What is written here, in 1883, shall always remain the case." It does not say, "America has no choice but to accept anyone who can sneak into the country." It does not say, "American citizens have no right to national self-determination."
It's time we, as a nation, grew up and realized that Lady Liberty is being raped by criminals who are sneaking into this country while we sit around hugging each other, singing kumbaya, and getting misty eyed over an 1883 sonnet.
And, please, don't give me that slack-jawed inanity that "We're a nation of immigrants." EVERY NATION is a nation of immigrants. The smart nations know when enough is enough. It's time the U.S. got smart. This isn't 1883. We're full. Stay in your own nations
and develop them. |

----MILLARD IS AN IMPORTANT
WRITER- New Nation News-- THE OUTSIDER is an enigmatic and complex work of fiction wrapped in seeming simplicity. It has elements of the mystical, the existential, and the transcendental as well as being a commentary on the PC nature of our times. The reader is never sure whether the main character is schizophrenic and is imagining all the events of the story, or whether he is an avatar and in control of events; or perhaps, he is simply being meaninglessly blown along through events like a leaf in a breeze. Just as the reader thinks the story is a straightforward tale, it takes some subtle and some not so subtle turns into absurdity and meaninglessness and then back again. |
