I don't know where the people come from, but when I wanted my own 18 year-old cousin from Israel to visit for three weeks in 1968, I had to provide an affidavit of support in order for her to get a visa.

For those that do not study US history, they would find it odd that an early debate was over the language to be used in the US - English or German. German almost won out.
Germans were the majority of immigrants to Mexico for years. Yup - that why a lot of “Mexican” music has a distinct um-pah-pah German sound.

3rd world filth has no place in America. Do whatever it takes to stop America from being invaded by evil, lazy and ill intent.

Our greatest national mistake was letting too many people in, too fast. My ancestors were mostly German and Irish Catholics, with some Dutch and Norwegian Lutherans thrown in for flavor. Unfortunately, these people, and especially the southern and eastern Europeans of the later waves, simply never fully assimilated. It wasn't the religious difference per se -- Catholics signed our founding documents and contributed to our founding struggle and American culture to a degree in massive disproportion to their small numbers, and Sephardic Jews had a presence from fairly early. But the US was an Anglo-Saxon, agrarian nation. The waves of immigrants from Europe in the late 18 and early 19 hundreds didn't fold into this culture, but into the industrial, squalid, city-based culture. They didn't have the same shared memory and pride in the rough tussle the 19th century had been for the US. It wasn't their fault, the farming culture was already experiencing the rot that would destroy it in a few decades and they were too poor to acquire acreage anyway. But living in an Italian neighborhood, speaking Italian, eating Italian, and living Italian in a massive city isn't conducive towards becoming what up until then, had been the stereotypical American citizen. The militia culture had also died, which would lead to the first comprehensive constraints on our 2nd Amendment in the 30s. Which didn't bother a ton of new Americans, who were serfs in Europe, corporate serfs in the US, and had never been conditioned to own and use firearms for the most part.
I'm by no means some sort of Anglo supremacist, abd I don't have a drop of Anglo blood in me. But if you have population with certain values, and inject it suddenly with a massive dose of some other group with an incomplete understanding and appreciation of the values of the first population, the net result is that the first population and its values will be largely destroyed.

Germany 13.0% Many of those, like my ancestors, who came from "Germany" back then were Poles.

In about twenty years there will be a shortage of workers in the US so that we will be begging for people to come here.

When people spread the claptrap about America being a “nation of immigrants”, point out that historically, a nation of WHITE immigrants.
To: sodpoodle
This is directly tied to the Immigration Act of 1965, which did away with the quota on Mexicans.
The Act was Ted Kennedy’s idea, and yes they lied when they said it would not result in the USA becoming majority non-white.
Quotas must be re instituted, before the DELIBERATE and TREASONOUS plan to destroy the majority white demographic is allowed to succeed.

When they visit my basement shop, they are learning. Machining is easiest for them but the chemistry and electronics fascinates them.
