    Listen up, Jack! My father- my dad used to tell me all the time! He used to tell me: “Joey! This country was built on hard work, sweat, and good ol’ fashioned genocide!” And by God, he was right. He was right. And so when another country comes to us and say “look. We’ve gotta exterminate these people. You understand, right?” A tear runs down my cheek. I get real close, and my voice gets raspy. And I stare them right in their eyes like Dad used to do and I nod with assurance. “We’re the United States of America for God’s sake.”
