- Gee, Jack- you're right! The fact that some hispanics celebrate
- New Years Day by firing guns into the air DOES invalidate the
- entire idea of multiculturalism. Why didn't I think of that
- before? I've been so blind!
- So, then, WASP culture is pretty much invalidated by the fact that
- thousands of the treacherous bastards pour into the woods every
- year on the first day of deer season and get stinko, blazing away
- at anything that moves and resulting in more deaths every year even
- than that evil old hispanic tradition, huh?
- Now an enlightened being,
