December 9, 2015 MOUNT RAINIER NATIONAL PARK, WASHINGTON
Over the past week, intense weather patterns have led to
over 15 feet of snow accumulating on Mount Rainer. Skiers and snowboarders have
been rejoicing at the potential of a year where they might actually be able to
visit the mountain, and children have begun planning tubing trips into the
foothills. All in all, it looks to be a good year for business owners, with
record snowfall, bringing in droves of rich dentists (or whoever the hell can
afford to ski). However, not all is well. With the snow totals increasing to
record levels, some concerned government officials have begun to warn of an
imminent danger. Global warming may be the delusional popular threat to
campaign about this year, but with rapid (but natural) climate change, the one
thing we clearly have to worry about is yeti immigration.
With the foothills of Rainier looking more and more like the
base of the alps every day, immigrants will soon be pouring in by the
thousands. Already the Swiss Matterhorn has noticed a drop in their yeti
population, and it will not be long before they are on our doorstep. To be
clear, this is not condemning yetis as a population, but in order to better
protect the safety of this great country, many government officials are calling
for a straight ban on visas for yetis, just until the situation can be figured
out.
Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump spoke on the matter yesterday
stating: “Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to
anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension [speaking on the tendency for yetis
to maul mountain climbers when their territory is encroached upon.] Until we
are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it
poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by yetis that
believe only in Snowhad [a yeti word
for holy war against those who climb mountains in bright jackets], and have no
sense of reason or respect for human life.”
Yetis have a strong cultural
history of violence (as evidenced by the two or three that keep attacking
people), and are a menace on every mountain that they inhabit. A group of
cultural psychologists (liberals) are currently trying to advocate unsuccessfully
to retain the open border policy that the United States has maintained with
yetis for many years. “Our native sasquatch was once an immigrant too, and look
at the economic boom he’s brought local wood carvers and the History Channel.
By locking these creatures out of our country, we’re doing ourselves and the
nation a great disservice,” said Dr. Renee Pollicker in an address to the
Washington State legislative office this morning. She also sighted evidence of
hikers stories about sharing picnics with the large ape, and the creature’s
primarily docile nature.
Unfortunately, the lives of those
in our country can’t be put at risk based on the good behavior of one member of
the species. The only sensible solution is to keep all of the yetis out, until
proper relocation services are available. Senator Mitch McConnell has already
put forth a bill in the senate which will help set up relocation sites where
yetis can live without bothering the area’s local inhabitants. He has also
stated that to help save the country’s budget (that’s right liberals, we’re not
made of money), the camps will be built with leftover, recycled pieces of the
U.S.-Mexico border wall.
