Asian Woman Trespasses through My Chicken Coop

Metaphor of the Invasion: Asian( no speak English) immigrant trespasses through private property

ps I did not show a picture of the chicken coop to protect my privacy and to avoid contemptous remarks

about White Trash types. That chicken coop once housed a Goat named Theodore Roosevelt.

Where to begin, I am out on my parent’s land which consists of several acres in King County,Wa.
I am on the path to the old chicken house, which dates back to the 1920′s.
I find several of the three story million dollar ?? Mc Mansions (inhabited by H1-B visa immigrants from China and Russia), have appropriated some of our unfenced land. They have perfect tiny yards. They have dumped yard clippings in huge heaps on our land. They are the Asian immigrants , most likely from China.
The Immigrants have pruned all the natural plants that our family liked.
The Immigrants have gotten themselves a double lot for free, but they don’t pay the close to $20,000 in taxes that my parents must.

then the final blow, a tiny Asian woman comes walking up the old path to the chicken house.
I am speechless. To have done so she had to walk up a private driveway , which is a complete trespass.
She says” this your property? ( along with a lot of chinese that I don’t comprehend at all)
I say it is private property and no trespassing. I say this again in a calm voice.
All of sudden, she no longer speaks English-, but she keeps smiling and pointing to the chicken coop and the mansions beyond it.
She points to her ear over and over and says NO ENGLISH
I say I don’t understand a word you’re saying.


I cant tell you how violating it was , that on land that held memories for me I was now being trespassed by an Asian woman who refuses to speak English or honor private property.

above is a wall I created the year before the McMansions were built. It was my private place I thought, but it was right where the Immigrant Asian woman walked every time she trepassed.

When I grew up , before the invasion of mass immigrants , no one would have walked up our driveway unless they were visiting. The Immigrants who live in the 3-story McMansions are NOT our neighbors and never will be. They don’t speak English. They don’t move outside their own Chain Immigration Ethnic Group.
Perhaps it’s hard for people who have never lived on a large piece of land, or in one place.

But imagine the most private place you have and imagine finding an immigrant stomping through it with no concern at all.

that’s why I felt it was a metaphor.

I spent the rest of the day blocking and ugly-fying and putting up chicken wire and throwing logs on the trails.
$$$$$$-a decade ago, a teen russian immigrant shot two bullets from some kind of gun through my parent’s windows.
the bullet holes are still there.
the King County Sheriff told my parents not to press charges against him because he was an immigrant and troubled.
I think the sheriff should have paid for new windows, and the Russian family deported.
of course not :crime pays in the USA.
All you have to do is say I no speak English and you can break any law you want.
