This is BS. Show me a nation with one unique culture throughout and I'll show you a country ruled by fascists. We wouldn't have cowboys in TX without the influence of the Mexicans. We wouldn't have Mexicans if the Spanish and Aztecs had kept to themselves.

Who would be invited to stay in a monocultural nation approved by you, anyways? People who listen to rap music? People who eat perogies? What about people who celebrate Yom Kippur?

The primary lesson we should take from these riots has nothing to do with the destructive effects of "multiculturalism" and everything to do with the destructive effects of violence. Violence within a nation destroys it. Cultures that can live along-side one another peacefully and can intermingle peacefully enrich their nation... not destroy it.

From the groups listed everyone except people who listen to rap music. Anyone with that much bad taste can only screw up the country

" Cultures that can live along-side one another peacefully and can intermingle peacefully enrich their nation... not destroy it."

Then you would agree Is-Slime has no place in the USA? All cultures are NOT equal. 3rd world mudslimes do not add to the strength of the USA. With a few notable exceptions, the old European cultures helped move this country forward more than any other. Other cultures are holding us back.

Cultures that do not want to learn English or that believe anyone not from their death cult should be converted or killed come to mind as not advancing the USA.

So all nationalism is fascism?
I suppose that Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, and Franklin were black shirts?
The fact is that multi-culturalism is not respecting foreign cultures, but allowing them to dominate ones own.

We wouldn't have cowboys in TX without the influence of the Mexicans. We wouldn't have Mexicans if the Spanish and Aztecs had kept to themselves.
The Spaniards did not accept multi-culturalism. They did not let the Aztecs and related peoples practice human sacrifice etc. They conquered these people, destroyed their cultures and religions in a brutal manner and imposed Catholicism.
Don't get me wrong. I've come across native mexacan immigrants speaking indiginous languages. I'm not sure that I would trust them with an obsidian blade.

Tell it to those who are naive enough to believe there will ever be peace between Palestinians and Jews in Israel.

... and I do celebrate Yom Kippur, shalom
