To Supreme Court Justices

Today the Supreme Court came to a decision on the recent Arizona immigration law. A lot of the law was struck down, but some of the major aspects of the law were not. I found this very frustrating. I can't understand why we, as a nation, feel like we should keep people from neighboring countries out of this one. Then go a step further and find people that are here "illegally" and deport them. Are they really so threatening seeing as their time is spent hiding from the government and paying taxes they will never benefit from? Would it be better if they just came in offering gifts of blankets laced with small pox? Is that the American dream they should aspire to?

Prose

For the last week I have lived in a house made of fantasy.

The only issue is the demolition crew outside. Free time a wrecking ball. And thought has been the force driving this ball through my home.

But I rebuilt. Laying bricks made of video games and twilight zone episodes, I rebuilt.

But Wednesday was too strong and Thursday i re-read the note.

To Dave Chappelle

Today, after getting off of an 8 hour work shift, I heard the rumor that you would be performing in Houston tonight. I was in a state of pure disbelief. I repeatedly said to my friend ,"What?! No! Really?!" But then I heard about what happened in Austin. Again, I was in a state of disbelief. Once I got home, I began trying to find out if what he said was true. I called the Improv, but they informed me it wasn't true. So I began reading the internet trying to find out what happened in Austin. I found an article written for Austin 360 and it made sense. People, not understanding that you are a person who is also, probably, my favorite comedian and someone who should have complete attention, instead of a character from television to be interacted with like a character at a theme park. I'm sorry that you were treated so poorly and I wish I could have had the chance to see you. Maybe next time.
