Oh Happy DAY! I just had a bill collector call me from Canada.

[anarchy1999]

I read to him Mario's statement and then I started to read to him EUGENE DEBS speach from Canton, OH, 1916. He hung up.

From Mr Debs:

Canton, Ohio, 1916--Eugene expressing his support for jailed antiwar protestors.

Every solitary one of these aristocratic conspirators and would-be murderers claims to be an arch-patriot; every one of them insists that the war is being waged to make the world safe for democracy. What humbug! What rot! What false pretense! These autocrats, these tyrants, these red-handed robbers and murderers, the “patriots,” while the men who have the courage to stand face to face with them, speak the truth, and fight for their exploited victims—they are the disloyalists and traitors. If this be true, I want to take my place side by side with the traitors in this fight.

and it is just a snip from a very long, passionate speech.

Here is your link.

2. It is quite alright. I believe I just made him angry. Sorry. I told him

when Key Lay is brought to justice, call us. Damn'd it all, I made him angry and he had to hang up. Not my loss. Lose our number.

5. It's ok

You probably didn't ruin his day or anything. Most of them are just kids making slave wages and are only there because they can't find work elsewhere.

3. At least we can understand the Canadians.

And they are very pleasant, for the most part. Never been called by a bill collector, though, outsourced to Canada. Just solicitations for other things.

4. It was a trip and I'm really sorry for frustrating him. He was just

trying to do his job. Get back to us when you guys take care of Kenny boy, okay.

Peace.

6. As I told Anarchy

Most of them are just kids, or recent immigrants, who can't find work elsewhere. No one likes to get those calls, and no one likes to make them.
