Massive third world immigration is great for assimilation, don't you know?
To: Phillip Augustus
Don't forget about our Founding Fathers' admonition that immigration should be limited to Europe. Well of course, they didn't have to have immigration from Africa now did they?
To: ArneFufkin
And Constantinople as well. I am not particularly concerned about East Pakistan, Burma, and Siam, but we should take Constantinople and Rhodesia back. And we could easily do it, if we wanted to- and you know that!
To: FreedomFriend
Yes, and
NO !
There have been many different " cultures " represented here, since our nation began. Yes, there were black Africans ( ever heard of slavery ? ), and the various ethnics from Europe were NOT readily accepted. The " dominate " culture and language, at the time of our founding was ... G-E-R-M-A-N ! Asians ( specifically Chinese, but others too ) have been amongst us, for more than 1/2 our history. Just because people , who emmigrated here, before, were white , didn't mean that they assimilated faster, or that they were accepted.

All of which sound like good prescriptions. I hope that such threads feature more prescriptions...on any ideological-logistical side...and less of the "you, no you" banter that appears to comprise much of this thread.
To: Texasforever
I certainly wouldn't agree with slavery...moral issues aside, we're still paying massive economic price for it.
To: nopardons
No one else demanded and received: free lunch, free places to live, free welfare, free bilingual ed...EVERYONE ELSE'S grandparents/parents/great-grandparents/great-great etc. learned English and got by without handouts from the US taxpayer.
Amazing isn't it.
To: Phillip Augustus
The name of that country was changed in 1980.
We sent a memo to you regarding the name change, but the bottle must have washed ashore somewhere short of reaching you.

I don't see anyone flying the Italian or Polish flags. However, I have seen quite a few Mexican flags. My opinion on European flags is that I wish that most would get behind the US flag. However, Europeans aren't flooding us in droves. The Mexican illegal aliens represent a bunch of invaders who are residents of a hostile country. Thus, the flying of the Mexican flag is more serious for these reasons.
To: ArneFufkin
The name of the country changed, the government changed, but it got much much worse, not better. Horrible place now.
To: grlfrnd
Well, let's call it Rhodesia then!
To: Bella_Bru
That's a pretty harsh term for a fine, Patriotic woman. However, I'm not in the game of censorship and admin moderators, I won't summon them over here.
To: FreedomFriend
I don't see those flags she was talking about either. Ever.
To: grlfrnd
We need to end the entitlements. People should be expected to earn their way. Agreed?
To: grlfrnd
BALDERDASH and CODSWALLOP !
You are so bloody blinkered, by your own tiny world view and predjuices, have not a scintilla of an idea about what goes on outside of your own community, that you make outrageous statements ; such as those on this thread.
For starters, dear, the ILLEGAL Irish, in N.Y.C. , is a major problem there. Many white and black well educated South Africans, are now in the USA. I said that it was almost impossible for them to get here; not that it is impossible. :-) You don't want the Commies, from Mozambique here. The white farmers, who stayed, when Rhodesian became Zimbabwe, were PRO Mugabe and roaring lefties. They deserve what they're getting, IMHO.
To: grlfrnd
Damn! You beat me to it! :)
To: grlfrnd
I agree. For most, it's about the money. For others, it's about their racist desires to weed out the "evil white man" and take over a great civilization, using false notions of "Aztlan" to achieve those means.
To: Cultural Jihad
CJ...absolutely. I have no problem...with people wanting to work here and live here, but do it legally. Don't come here illegally and expect us to pay for you. If that happened, there would be a lot less people coming, imho.
To: Bella_Bru
I just know that I have no issue with people of non-European descent. I do not think they are all bad and everyone who can claim European ancestry are all good. Yes, its like *WOW* so mind blowing complex. It's like maybe we should make up immigration policies based on exceptions to the rule instead of general rules. Because general rules S*CK and to make judgements is to exclude. /sarcasm off.

Agreed. That is why we need a good guest worker program.
