According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (so take it for what it's worth) report titled 'Trends in International Migrant Stock: The 2015 Revision' The United States has a foreign born population of 46,627,102 which is 14.3% of our total population now just think what that means if that almost 47 million doesn't include the ILLEGAL immigrant population in the United States which is anywhere from 11 million to 40 million. If you couple that with this insane idea that assimilation is bad then GIANT problems will arise and we're seeing that. From 1924 to 1965 legal immigration to America was damn near fully stopped and oddly enough the big American economic boom happened inside that window and wage stagnation began shortly thereafter....are the two perhaps linked? Just a question worth pondering.

When I make mention of "killers, rapists, and welfare leeches" I'm saying a couple things #1 America already has those in large enough numbers and #2 There's 0 denying that the per capita crime of illegal immigrants far exceeds that of the average American. There ARE killers and rapists and bums coming to America legally and illegally in great numbers. As a US citizen Nancy Pelosi has told me and everyone else that MS13 GANG MEMBERS have "A spark of the divine"....that's who the elite want to run cover for over our veterans over our citizens whom we have a social safety net for?!?!?

I understand the sentiment completely, but we have a social safety net for our citizens. That net disappears by inviting people in who take but do not give. You cannot serve from an empty vessel. When the Titanic sank there weren't enough lifeboats to save 100% of the passengers, should those passengers all been allowed onto lifeboats overloading and capsizing them thereby dooming 100% of the passengers? This is what is happening right now, and yes our culture is a special one and deserves preserving for future generations and that's not going to happen without assimilation.

Also am I not being thoughtful? There was a 3 year old used like a disposable commodity for some jackass to cross the border and the child was left alone in the middle of a desert when the "immigrants" made it across without being caught. I'm sorry I think such a heinous act should be punishable by death. People die trying to get here and they get here and what is it they bring? Diseases from the 19th century? They ruin our schools and hospitals! Is it wrong to think that perhaps their nations should care for THEIR citizens? We send aid in the BILLIONS to nations where these migrant caravans start and I'm sorry it's one or the other not both either the aid stops or the people stop, I'd rather have both stop to be honest and it's not because I'm hateful or want ill feelings. I want to teach them how to fish instead of give them fish.


Capitalism is trading via free will. You have the right of refusal of service, you WILLINGLY enter into deals on your own...what's better than that? Certainly not communism! And nowhere in Capitalist America is it said that communities may not practice Socialism. If that is your choice as a community you're certainly free to make that choice and operate in such a manner. In Socialist nations Capitalism is verboten.

Now as for your family history, you've every right to be proud of that. I wouldn't want to shame anything about it, it should be celebrated....in America we're taking down murals of George Washington now apparently. We're removing statues of causes my ancestors fought for the Revolution and poorly named Civil War. Why? Oh it's to make people of other backgrounds FEEL better. Well I for one wouldn't move to another nation and then demand statues be taken down, but hey that's just me and my ancestors fought to build this nation so I take great issue with erasing their legacy as it is one that deserves to persevere regardless of "FEELINGS"...is no part of true British history worth preserving? Should no legacy remain of Shakespeare of Darwin of Drake of Raleigh of Cornwallis of of Rhodes of Churchill?

Slavery, racism, colonialism...they were ills of an era. Should we all feel shame and sorrow and overturn the victory in WW2 because nuclear bombs were used? Life is bloody and ugly and unfair and the victors write the history. Is our history to be handed over to the aggrieved to write? To what end?
