BAD AMERICAN
I'm a Bad American: Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2001
Written by Ted Nugent, the rock singer and hunter/naturalist, upon
hearing that California Senators B. Boxer and D. Feinstein denounced
him for being a "gun owner" and a "Rock Star". This was his response
after telling the senators about his past contributions to children's
charities and scholarship foundations which have totaled more than $13. 7
million in the last 5 years!!
___________________________________________________________
I'm a Bad American-this pretty much sums it up for me.
I like big trucks, big boats, big houses, and naturally, pretty women.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some midlevel
governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away
to crack addicts squirting out babies.
I don't care about appearing compassionate.
I think playing with toy guns doesn't make you a killer.
I believe ignoring your kids and giving them
Prozac might.
I think I'm doing better than the homeless.
I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized.
I have the right not to be tolerant of others because they are different,
weird
or make me mad. This is my life to live, and not necessarily up to others
expectations.
I know what SEX is and there are not varying degrees of it.
I don't celebrate Kwanzaa. But if you want to that's fine; I just
don't feel like everyone else should have to.
I believe that if you are selling me a Dairy Queen shake, a pack of
cigarettes, or hotel room you do it in English. As of matter of fact,
if you are an American citizen you should speak English.
My uncles and forefathers shouldn't have had to die in vain so you can
leave the countries you were born in to come and disrespect ours, and
make us bend to your will.
Get over it.
I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry butt if you're
running from them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand
the word 'freeze' or 'stop' in English, see the previous line.
I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular
opinions or actions.
I know how to count votes and I feel much safer letting a machine with
no political affiliation do a recount when needed.
I know what the definition of lying is, and it isn't based on the word
"is"-ever.
I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you
qualify for any special loan programs, gov't sponsored bank loans, etc. ,
so you can open a hotel, 7-Eleven, trinket shop, or any thing else, while
the indigenous peoples can't get past a high school education because they
can't afford it.
I didn't take the initiative in inventing the Internet.
I thought the Taco Bell dog was funny.
I want them to bring back safe and sane fireworks.
I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne,
Ice-T or Marilyn Manson sang, but that doesn't mean I want
to listen to that crap from someone else's car when I'm stopped at a red
light. But I respect your right to.
I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment
than working at Blockbuster or Jack In The Box.
I don't want to eat or drink anything with the words light, lite or
fat-free on the package.
Our soldiers did not go to some foreign country and risk their lives in
vain and defend our Constitution so that decades later you can tell me
it's a living document ever changing and is open to interpretation. The
guys
who wrote it were light years ahead of anyone today, and they meant what
they said - now leave the document alone, or there's going to be trouble.
I don't hate the rich.
I help the poor.
I know wrestling is fake.
I've never owned, or was a slave, and a large percentage of our forefathers
weren't wealthy enough to own one either. Please stop blaming me because
some prior white people were idiots - and remember, tons of white, Indian,
Chinese, and other races have been enslaved too - it was wrong for every
one of them.
I believe a self-righteous liberal with a cause is more dangerous than a
Hell's Angel with an attitude.
I want to know exactly which church is it where the "Reverend" Jessie
Jackson preaches; and, what exactly is his job function.
I own a gun, you can own a gun, and any red blooded American should be
allowed to own a gun, but if you use it in a crime, then you will serve the
time.
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and
continue to make more. If it makes you mad, then invent the next
operating system that's better and put your name on the building.
Ask your buddy that invented the Internet to help you.
I don't believe in hate crime legislation. Even suggesting it makes me
mad.
You're telling me that someone who is a minority, gay, disabled, another
nationality, or otherwise different from the mainstream of this country
has more value as a human being that I do as a white male. If someone
kills
anyone, I'd say that it's a hate crime.
We don't need more laws! Let's enforce the ones we already have.
I think turkey bacon, turkey beef, turkey fake anything sucks.
I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child-it takes a
parent with the guts to stand up to the kid and spank his butt and say
"NO!"
when it's necessary to do so.
I'll admit that the only movie that ever made me cry was Ole Yeller.
I didn't realize Dr. Seuss was a genius until I had a kid.
I will not be frowned upon or be looked down upon or be made to keep
silent because I have these beliefs and opinions. I thought this
country allowed me that right.
I will not conform or compromise just to keep from hurting somebody's
feelings. I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately
the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.
Yes, I guess by some people's definition, I may be a bad American.
But that's tough.
