Illegal or inconvenient?

To the editor:

Let’s just suppose that I wake up some morning and I decide I no longer want to live here in Lewistown. I know that someone over in the next town has a nicer house with a nicer yard and a swimming pool. I climb over his fence, or I cut a hole in it, and I walk right up to his door and demand that he let me in.

I also tell him that because of inflation I can no longer earn as well as I would like living in Lewistown. Now because of these facts, I expect him to let me stay and eat his food and swim in his pool. Not only that, but if I get sick I expect him to take me to the doctor’s office and take care of my doctor bill. I don’t care if he likes the idea or not. I don’t care if I came to his door illegally or not, it is my right just because I exist. I wonder how I would make out.

Perhaps I could cut him a break and if he didn’t want me at his house, I would let him put me on a bus and pay my fare to New York City, and put me up in a $500 a night hotel and feed me. Now if I decide I don’t like the food I get I would just throw it in the trash. I wonder if all the liberal Democrats and Biden supporters would say that I’m not illegal, I’m just undocumented? It is perfectly OK for you to act this way. We will all support your activities and we will allow all your friends and relatives to do the same. We will ignore our own poor and homeless to take care of you.
