The United States is made up of so many different groups of immigrants. People have fled to the shores of the United States far before it was even called the United States. Many times throughout our history we have had struggles between classes and political factions and one thing remained consistent… we were fighting in America, for America.
Today, there has been a disturbing trend of Middle Eastern, radical jihadist, communist and Mexican flags being hoisted at rallies and political protests. In some twisted form of solidarity, the people who fled oppressive regimes are still emotionally attached to their place of origin.
All attempts to assimilate such people are met with scorn and accusations of bigotry.
Yet what do you call it when your supposed fellow countrymen hoist another nations flag?
We should call it BS.
There is no reason to feel ashamed of one’s nationality and original homeland but their is a time to leave it behind.
When you come to America, you should leave behind the place that failed you.
It’s not love it or leave it, it’s love it or lose it.
Of late, the anti-Trump AstroTurf crowd has been waving Mexican flags about to demonstrate their obvious love of Mexico over the United States so perhaps the time has come to see what this ma mean.
Please see the next page for Mexican flag madness at anti-Trump protests.
Immigration is a procedure that is governed by laws and rules. Our Immigration Laws are well established, extremely easy to follow and are written to protect the country from those that would wish or would cause harm to the USA or its citizens and have been in play for many, many years. Immigration is the life blood of the USA; If it were not for immigration, we would have zero or negative population growth. In the USA a person dies every 8 seconds and a baby is born every 13 seconds. Except for the Native Americans, we are all here based on these immigration rules and regulations, we are a country of immigrants. Rules and regulations are in place and should be followed accordingly.
You might argue that America was built on the backs of these immigrants, and that is a very accurate statement. The African Slaves (forced immigrants) were responsible for the development of the South, Asians built the railroads, Irishman and Middle-Eastern Europeans built the city’s sky scrapers, the Norwegians and the Germanic peoples built our farming and food producing industry, Mexicans and Hispanic immigrants filled the needs for labor intense and menial tasks. Plus, all of these people were a part of the “Greatest Generation” of Americans, a generation that brought our country out of a deep-deep depression and fought and won that war, the most horrific world war (WWII) known to man.
Do not hate the Immigrant, blame the Administration (President Obama’s administration, the administration of do nothing) and The United Nations for allowing this to happen in the first place. What is the charter and role that the UN has in world peace? The Charter consists of two principal parts. The first part contains a general call for the maintenance of peace and international security and respect for human rights. The second part of the preamble, is a declaration in a contractual style that the governments of the peoples of the United Nations have agreed to the Charter and it is the first international document regarding human rights. Since 1945, it has been to maintain world order and peace. Has it been successful? A rhetorical question, if the United Nations did, as it is responsible to do, to be the world’s sheriff, our world would be a much better place. I know one thing for sure the (UN) is doing a miserable job.
You are in America, taking advantage of the perks here and quite possibly living off the American tax payers, what right do you think you have to raise the Mexican flag? Go back to Mexico if you think it is so great, why did you leave anyway?
We have spent the past 15 winters in Yuma As. I can’t remember seeing a Mexican flag any where, however Canadian flags are flying at every RV park in town. Few people seem to care.
Foreign intervention in America? Where is our organized militia?
The malitia is on stand down right now.
Sad
Stupid
I can’t wait until TRUMP is our president
Agree!
The foreigners are moving toward violence to change our government. This always happens with invasions.
