Simply saying "Fuck ICE" does not equivalate to the anger and rage I have against this pathetic, insecure country and the sociopolitical issues that revolve around and upon it every soughting day I live. The world is changing quickly, and not in a good way. While it changes, I, myself, change, and I grow up. I grew up in a family who was proud to be Hispanic and be apart of the culture, and even represent it. Now I am living almost by myself, in fear of my culture, in fear of who I am supposed to be. I live in a world where my last name is a danger to myself and the rest of my family. And yet, I am not even a legal adult yet. And yet, I am still, in a sense, young. I dread every day more than the last, knowing our world is growing into a putrid, disgusting and nasty sludge-esque paste of hatred, more than before.
There are people, around my age, if not younger than me- young to the point they cannot understand why our world has been put in the state that it is in today, being taken away from their families, their parents, from disgraced, abominable, inhuman sacrifices because their dictative leader is forcing them to do so. And they all get a kick out of it. They all get a laugh, a fun lil' gag out of it. And they all lust for more. There is no remorse left within the ones above us- the ones who claim to be above us. Our country, our land, was taken from us from the very beginning. Now, this said land is being controlled by a kind who despise us. Our deceitful government keeps hypnotizing us into things we shall believe are true. Hypnotizing us into submission, and once we submit, they can do whatever they must. "This is the land for all! We the people! Freedom!" Yet, that freedom we were once promised, is now taken away right under our noses- under our feet. Though, a part of me questions if that so called "Freedom" was ever promised to us in the first place.
What is so free about being taken away? You've taken our rights, you've taken our children, you've taken our culture, you've taken our parents, you've ripped us away from the hands of our adoring families. Away from the hands who care about us. Away from the hands that represent our culture, who make us who we are today. My father told me, "if I ever die, I'll never die kneeling, I'll die standing." The people- not even people, that's too kind, that's too humanizing of a title to give. I'll correct myself! The disgusting, abhorrent, pathetic, lying, ungrateful, cowardly, moronic, genocidal cocksucking demons who lead ICE, who are associated and / or work within ICE, should die laying on the ground. Die in the ways they torture our children. Die in the ways they've killed the ones who've had more empathy and heart than them.
I have little to no reputation, I have nothing to lose. If I were to be taken away- If I were to die, I'd spend my last moments putting my sweet delicate hands around an ICE agents neck. Choking, suffocating the ungrateful, unthoughtful, dehumanizing life out of him, as he begs for air the same way the children and people of our culture beg to be released, beg to have any sense of freedom in the land we once had.
If they take all of our shit. It's time for us to take what we once had back, and make this country into what it was always meant to be. Make this country into what we were initially promised by the liars that unfortunately govern over us.
And yet, it all goes through the system.
