Today's MOZEN: Shame on You!


Words and photo by F LoBuono
Please forgive what might become an epic rant, full of vulgarity. But, I just can't help myself. I just read a post from a man I thought that I respected - an Italian-American. Good guy with a sense of community. Really. It was about a Muslim-American woman who no longer feels safe wearing her head scarf. The reaction to her was simply DEPLORABLE: "Go home, sand nigger". "Good riddance". "Who gives a shit - LEAVE", were just some of the quotes.

REALLY???

This is what we've become????

LISTEN DOUCHE BAGS - you have NO CLUE as to what it means to be an AMERICAN. You're the first scumbags to wave the flag in someone's face without having a REAL clue as to what it truly means TO BE A REAL AMERICAN. It's written all over the world's GREATEST SYMBOL OF FREEDOM - the Statue of Liberty. Instead of using it like a weapon, read it. BELIEVE it. LIVE it!

The New Collossus
Emma Lazarus


Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
