Today begins back in 1973. I was watching the morning news and thought
back to the days of yore when I was in college and decided I wanted to attend
an Emerson, Lake and Palmer, concert.
I was residing in upstate New York
It was a fashionable
indoor/outdoor arena surrounded by a sloping hill. This arrangement allowed one to purchase
indoor seats in case of inclement weather, and still be able to sit on the lawn
with a blanket and snacks during nicer evenings.
The ELP tickets were on sale at
the SPAC ticket box where people camped out to be certain to simply purchase
some.
I don’t remember SPAC’s capacity,
but the local FM radio stations promised this concert would be a sell-out.
Although working my way through
college with two jobs while attending school, a friend who also had a desire to
see ELP offered to buy me a ticket in my absence.
Evidently the once-orderly crowd
became antsy just about time the ticket office opened resulting in a melee, of
sorts.
I received this second-hand
account via my ticket buddy, who was fortunate enough to acquire enough for
himself, me, and others in his special circle.
It seems as though anxious people
who didn’t want to wait their turn for ELP tickets cut in line in front of the polite
would-be concert goers in a selfish move.
Yes, this is the first thing I
thought of when I heard about the equally selfish 7,000 louts who are making
their way from Central America to the United States
This group of malcontents is
thumbing their noses at Americans and American law because this is what they
want. Period.
Standing in line to get asylum in
America

| Yea! More people who can't obey the law! |
And nitwits around our country
are crying crocodile tears for these gate-crashers who are already refusing to
follow the rules of the greatest country on Earth. We need fewer of them, not more.
Honest, hard-working, skilled,
American residents are now finding themselves at odds with Democrats, whose one
note song of racism is staining the fabric of our nation.
My ELP ticket-buying pal didn’t
want excuses; he wanted order and justice.
That’s something we should all want now at the southern border.
Enough with the trespassing of
the United States of America
