See post #18.
In the USA we are a nation of movers and it is expected that when you move to a new place and make your home there that your loyalties will transfer as well.
We took it to the point that it was considered quite rude to ask someone what their name was. The preferred way was ask them what they wanted to be called.
That is not the case in Europe where you are expected to keep your loyalties to your "ancestral land" how ever many generations that may have been in the past.
Both ways of looking at thing have a certain amount of merit to them.

Oh heck, WTF. I wish I could delete this post, a double link that was already in my other post.
5.22am, brain shutting down obviously.
Thank-you :)
It’s perfectly normal as a European for me to refer to these things. Thank goodness not ALL Americans are as aggressive and rude as Mr. “Einstein” Carraway.
My bloodline is who I am, just like the rest of my European cousins.
Maybe Nick Carraway is working for the NWO that’s trying to destroy Europe. Where they want each nation to dump our individual heritage and forget who we are....and just be NOTHING and trash our Centuries old bloodlines to become MULTICULTURAL.
Nick Carraway, PR Man for the NWO European Genocide Project.
Well, a lot of conservatives actually don't like what they called "hyphenate-Americans." African-Americans, Irish-American, Gay-Americans, whatever.
Are you perchance a descendant of Lady Hamilton?
Gay-American, well Gay isn’t a heritage, just like Straight-American wouldn’t be.
People have a right to call themselves Italian-American, German-American etc, it shows that they’re proud of their heritage which is European.
America was built by the European immigrants. The vast majority of Americans personal ancestry is European. To deny that would be utterly ridiculous.
Saying Gay-American is utterly ridiculous.
Thank-you for liking most of my posts.
I can’t help it if you find the bloodline comments disturbing. It’s a European thing, the majority of us are very proud of our bloodlines and we’re not about to deny them. Europeans will fight to preserve our blood, failing to do so would mean we’d naturally die out within the next 50 years. It’s therefore something of paramount importance to us....it’s our very survival.
My family goes back, well we’ve traced it back to 460AD. Think of that, that’s my bloodline, MY blood is the same as my ancestors blood, it’s been passed down for many Centuries, it’s who I am, it’s who my children are. It’s the most important thing, it’s precious, it must be preserved and carried on for many more Centuries.
If I can’t elaborate a bit.
In Britain, 25% of newborns are born to immigrants from Muslim nations and Africans.
In Holland it’s worse, 50% of newborns are born to immigrants from Muslim nations.
Because they breed like it’s going out of fashion, they’re out-breeding us. Thus in 50 years, we ethnic British and ethnic Dutch will for the first time be minorities in countries that historically have been ours for many Centuries....in 100 years we won’t even exist, our bloodlines will have perished, we’ll be history.
So our blood, our bloodlines, are very very important to us.
If I CAN elaborate a bit even. Doh.
Okay, it’s good we agree on the obvious, that a Lebanese shouldn’t be called a Swede.
You see this is what the Leftists are doing, in this case diminishing the actual Swedes, almost saying there’s no such thing as an actual Swede, because a Lebanese playing football in Sweden they’re telling people is a Swede also.
But for the US ancestry and ancestor hunting is considered an amusing hobby. While we may claim to be "German-American" and go to Oktoberfest or "Polish-American" and go to Pulaski Days or "Dutch-American" and go to Tulip Time in reality we are just enjoying a party.
But we expect that people who come here to surrender their old alliances and embrace the country that has taken them in.
It works more often then not.
To call someone who has nationalized by their old nationality is considered something of an insult.
Just the way we look at it.
That may be true, but Swedes seem to be choosing that.
What? It’s historically accurate that most Americans are of European descent.
Christian European descent.
The first European Colonisation of the Americas can be traced back to the 10th Century when the Norse sailors settled areas which are now Canada.
The extensive European colonisation began obviously in 1492, then carried on etc.
The Spanish, French, German, Swedes, Dutch and British, these nationalities are who most American’s are descended from.
There are roughly 50 million German-Americans, 27 million British-Americans (English, Welsh, Scottish), 11 million French-Americans, 4 million Swedish-Americans, 4 million Dutch-Americans, 759,000 Spanish-Americans, 17 million Italian-Americans, 34 million Irish-Americans....all these Americans are rightly proud of their European heritage.
The largest ethnic group are the German-Americans, their history is extensive and fascinating, they first arrived in the 1670s:

Like the rest of us, the Swedes haven’t been asked by their Government if it’s okay.
The Swedes have burnt down another three “refugee” centres. The Swedes aren’t choosing the invasion, it’s being forced on all of us by Merkel’s mouth and her fellow traitors in Brussels.
” To call someone who has nationalized by their old nationality is considered something of an insult.”
Really? How extraordinary.
Oh heck it’s 6.21am, I must go to bed.
