  • America is suppose to be a melting pot based on freedom, not the Borg.

    "Resistance is futile."

  • @Tutilost lol, your resentment isn't anything new, you might want to watch gangs of new york to see how white americans hated irish immigrants coming to america.

  • I'm an American of Mexican descent. My ancestors settled the Southwest during the Spanish colonization period, well before most immigrants landed at Ellis Island. Culturally, I grew up "American." I can say that the majority of illegal immigrants from Mexico/Central America don't care about assimilating. By the 2nd generation they speak english but keep their foreign values.

  • Sen Barbara Jordan led a BiPartisan commission in 1995 to find solutions to immigration, Her commission came up with real solutions, like an ID card to be used in applying for jobs & benefits. Her ideas were attacked by the usual anti American traitors and in its place they only suggest another amnesty. Don't be fooled, educate yourself on immigration and how it is a tax on the working poor and helping to wipe out the middle class. Go to numbersusa or vdare for good info.
