These sentiments mimic my own very closely. I'd be curious to hear some of your thoughts...

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall betreated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage todiscriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, ororigin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet anAmerican, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiancehere. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't anAmerican at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We haveroom for but one language here, and that is the English language... and wehave room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the Americanpeople."

I agree, but try going and talking to the kids of Montebello HS.

I cried that day when I heard that news. I cried very hard.

^ I got the email when that happened. If I would have been there there would have been bloodshed. I would have personally cut that pole down and burned the Mexican flag.

Illegals can GTFO of my country.

I'm being forced to learn Spanish right now to communicate with them.

Gotta love TR's talk about it. If he was the president he would have ***** slapped them all and sent them home. . . oh, and did I mention close the border so they cant just walk in?

I'd say GTFO to anyone who tells me to learn a language. I'd sue the ACLU for that.
