This is not happening with the immigration policy we have now and the attack on us 9-11 has brought that fact home to us. There are far too many immigrants in this nation that come right out and say, "I am a (fill in the country) living in America", this is a dangerous statement indicating no allegiance to nor care for the future of this nation or it's citizens. They do not care nor do they feel they have a stake in what happens to America, some even go so far as to say that while they love the freedom America affords them, they would like to see everyone under Islamic law, good Lord. Their attitude appears to be, if this falls apart I will just go home.
We should not even consider taking in the worlds population just because they want to come here for a better economic life, it's insane and suicidal. I compare it to someone borrowing money from you that has no intention of paying it back. Their guilt for taking what is yours, what they know they are not entitled to, causes them to hate you and behave as though they are the ones that have been wronged, when the truth is they just hate you because through your innocent act of trying to help them, you have created a feeling they hate you for, guilt. A huge number of them don't want to be Americans, do not consider themselves American, and even hate America while benefiting from it. When this is compounded by sleezy politicians waiting for them the second they arrive, downing the native population as racists out to keep them from their share of the pie, we have what we have now, Balkanization.
Some day the lid is going to blow off this stew pot of competing interests and I doubt it will be because of the native population. I can easily foresee trouble develop between a growing Latino population and a growing Muslim population and the political influence both will try to purchase with either votes or oil money, with everyone else caught in the middle.
We have been called by the world, the great experiment, well I don't know about you, but I never agreed to be experimented on. There are people here on FR that will tell you just how much they despise you for even claiming that there is a native culture in the USofA. If you do not agree to go along with the lie that we all arrived here last week and that we are all therefore immigrants you are not their new best friend. While culture is a nice thing to have it may not last, but the most important part of it must last, that being the Constitution that we hope to pass down wheather or not people in 2050 celebrate Sinco De Mio or Ramadan they must realize and care about the importance of the document that makes America, America.
I think a stop to immigration until some questions applied to new immigrants about where their loyalties are going to lie and what they hope to contribute is a sound idea whose time has come. Our government has to stop being the major corporation in America who seems to think the population can easily be exchanged for new worker bees. This is our home and they would be smart to start remembering that it is.
Too late, kiddo. According to the Supreme court, the federal government IS the major corporation in America: Volume 20; Corpus Juris Sec. 1785 "The United States Government is a foreign corporation with respect to a state". That is until you bent over for them and got yourself a social security number. At that moment, you signed a pact with this corporation. Its called a social contract. And now there's another social pact between government and illegal aliens which allows them to vote away your rights.
Really? Will this ultimatly be any different than the Israel lobby (whose supporters dominate the Democratic Party in South Florida and vote 85% Dem nationwide) lobbying to send my tax dollars to their country. What about the Greek, Armenian and Cuban lobbies? I think middle eastern immigration will be good for our foreign policy, as it will ultimatly make it more balanced than what it has been.
A cry for help on a sinking ship. A mother handsoff her young child to a crowd-filled life boat -- MissAmericanPie who never wanted to be part of the experiment only asks that we save the Constitution.
