OK, so you’re a Brazilian Federal Judge and you’re upset that the US is requiring people who need to get Visas to be fingerprinted and such (story). OK. That’s cool. BUT, must you compare us to the Nazis? Not only is that getting SO OLD, but come on- is there anyone who remembers what the Nazis did?? It seems like as soon as a nation tightens immigration policies they go there. Forget the Orwellian “Big-Brother” references- someone has to hop directly to the big guns- comparing hightened security to genocide.
Let’s apply this to everyday life, shall we? This should be fun. I’ve prepared a small list of ideas in what I like to call…
ED’S GUIDE TO OVERREACTION: How to use your hurt feelings for fun and profit
- When given the wrong order at the drive-thru: Simply hurl bag and contents back through the window and scream, “What are you trying to do to me? You NAZIs!!! Is THIS the kind of service you provided at the prison camps?!? Now get me my seven-layer burrito pronto!”
When pulled over on the freeway: “Oh, Sure I’ll give you my REGISTRATION!!! Why don’t you just tatoo it to my ARM on while we’re on the way back to the Gestapo, officer FUHRER!!!”
Upon finding a mistake on your bank statement: Over the phone, “Oh, I’m sure you’re sorry, BUT NOT AS SORRY WHEN YOU FIND NATO BOMBING THE CRAP OUT OF YOU! Didn’t think of that did you, Mr. I-Play-with-peoples-financial-futures? We’re all just cattle to you- on the way to the chamber! Well, we’ll see how you like it when the table’s turned and it’s YOU whose gotta answer to the butt of a rifle!”

I keep forgetting that the entire world is supposed to be in charge of what one country decides is its own best immigration policy. They really need to add that part to the textbooks, don’t they? And if everyone had backbone in the U.S. we might be able to remind that judge how many tourist go their way each year.

OMG. Whistler- i certainly hope you kicked yourself for that one. I personally would have blamed it on the medication.
