Elian's gay father upset by the United States recent ruling to prevent the boy from returning to Cuba, vowed that the he was ready to "kick somebody's ass". "The boy was dragged on to the raft by his freakin crazy mother and then almost drowned by the sea. Now he is in a America being held like a slave and all he wants to do is come home," the father had to say. "The US has spent millions trying to figure out what to do with him, meanwhile I have lost much money because the fields need plowing not to mention that the barn is completely full up with donkey shit. Is Janet Reno going to come do Elian's chores while he is gone? I don't think so." To prove his point, Elian's father showed up at the US embassy in Cuba armed and ready to "kick ass". "If I have to swim the freakin ocean, I'll go over there and shove this gun down Janet Reno's throat and blow his nuts off."
