We haven't forgotten our Immigrant past; we just don't appreciate a government run invasion. I am also sick of being expected to assimilate to the culture of those who are being imported to my Country! There's something fundamentally wrong with going to a public place in South Florida and the English language is barely spoken.
Excellent point. Cesar Chavez has become an icon among liberals and labor activists and Hispanics and those who favor more immigration. Yet Cesar Chavez was against illegal aliens coming in to this country.
Do you really not get it? They want them here because they come from countries where the populace is dependent on government to supply their needs - which is what the democrats need to stay in power. Importing hordes of these types of people creates a n endless supply of victims that need government to provide for them.
Yep.
Have a nice weekend, 2DV
All of my immigrant ancestors played by the rules and entered the country legally.
um..
the difference is this continent was once basically empty, and we could gladly accept whoever wanted to come here to help tame and fill it.
NOW we are bursting at the seams! we are running out of water, our infrastructure is stressed to the max, we can’t build or expand our roads or power plants fast enough to deal with the people we already have here!
Basically... we are FULL! no vacancy!
go some where else!
The wife is headed to a Lion’s Club function where they’ll sort through donated used eyeglasses to be shipped overseas to needy people with no other recourse. They’d distribute them here, but it’s against the law. Her company’s charity has specially made buses (”Vision Vans”) with labs inside to make brand-new glasses for poor kids here since used ones aren’t allowed.
nancy’s clearly Biblically Illiterate.... to say the least
WHERE are Al and Jesse on this mess anyway??
Just like the bills she votes on, Nancy hasn’t read the Bible and has no idea what it’s about.
Boy! Did I used to get that lecture from my grandmother when I started to pick up Sicilian from my grandfather, who was in the last years of his life and had started to talk in the native tongue again.
She was all over me like a hawk with the same admonition:
‘We’re in America now. Don’t listen to that crazy old man. We’re never going back to Sicily. Speak English!’
Brutal? You bet! We weren’t raised to be pu$$ies.
Actually, I’d like the United States to REMEMBER its past when immigrants came into this country legally using controlled procedures.
Because they have been told that America is vile vile, capitalist country which has stolen the world’s wealth and they hope to loot America.
***********
America used to be the Land of the Free. Now its just the Land of the Freebie. The more that “settle” here, the more will come. This is an invasion, pure and simple.
I emailed the author( his email is at end of article) using many of the salient points in here and especially explaining what a Legal immigrant was and is
Of course it won’t change his mind
but I am so tried of this crap
that somehow we are haters if we don’t want thousands poring in who will force us to borrow more and more
A journalism “professor”. What the hell would this clown know about anything? And once again, I am NOT a “nation of immigrants”. That drivel is nothing but sicko commie crap. I am a Native American without the high cheekbones. I was born here. My father, grandfather and great grandfather were all born here. I can’t go back any further than that because I don’t know who they were or where they were born. I am pretty sure though that they were born here. KMA “prof”!
Old Professor Frank is a little out of date. We used to be able to take in a lot of unskilled people because we could give them forty acres of land to build their dreams on. We don’t have that anymore.
There are seven billion sad stories in this world. I don’t have the money to pay for every sad story a Democrat hears. They need to toughen up.
” ... that means that we have to have unfettered illegal immigration?”
Like charitable giving, the US has one of the most open, accepting immigration systems in the world, as well as people who understand and accept immigrants.
Say, as compared to Mexico ... and many, many others.
But this professor of yellow journalism just wants to parade his lieberal credentials—maybe he’s seeking tenure or was recently caught with a live boy or dead girl.
Like Hollyweird actors who say really outrageous things—when they need work.
In any event, he’s bravely standing and reciting ... what they all believe. Obamagumbe says it, so it must be true; Big Bro’ does it, so it must be good.
I would be impressed if a professor stood and said, “Why aren’t we enforcing our immigration laws?”. It would probably be front page news in the `Chronicle of Higher Edumacation’.
Prof. Frank is behind the curve. The new term is no longer “immigrant,” now it’s “refugee.” That’s what the Obama spin machine is moving toward - designate the illegals as “refugees” from poverty and violence.
Soon that’s the only term you’re going to hear from the White House and the talking heads.
They seem to miss the fact that our nation once had a frontier that needed to be populated and a growing industry that could absorb semi-literate, semi- and unskilled labor in huge quantities.
This simply doesn’t exist any more. We NEEDED immigrants once. We don’t need them now.
A group home for foreign invaders right next door to the professor.
