The thing is, when people living in the US are complaining about immigrants coming here, unless they are 100% Native American Indian, then they have no right to bitch. Where do the whiners think their ancestors came from originally? This land that we live on, in this part of the world, was already settled by other people long before any white guy on a boat showed up. What the "white man" did to the indigenous peoples here was disgraceful. Not a single one of us has any right to tell others to stay out when all one has to do is look at the history of this country and the horrific way it was settled.
Goes back to my point with the memes in the other thread.
BTW: I am only the second generation of my family born in the United States. My grandparents were born in Italy and Poland and came over on a boat. They came over in 1913. Before that - my family history belongs in two other countries. I fully support anyone who comes here - no matter what their reason. I'm so over hearing white people complain about brown people stealing their jobs and mooching off the government. What an utter load of bullshit. They are willing to do the seasonal farm work that most white people would turn their nose up to. They are willing to do the "grunge" work that some entitled, white, snobby and arrogant assholes feel that they are too good to do. Many of them simply want what our ancestors received: A chance for a better life for their families. So anyone who doesn't think that people coming from other countries south of us, deserve to be here, can rightly fuck off.
Thank you very much for your noble attitude, Joods, I'm truly grateful.
Yes the ironic part is that Americans themselves are immigrants who ran away from the wars and poverty in their original countries, without mercy and compassion they would've stayed in their place and suffered; even died. So it's a noble thing to remember one's history in situations like this.
And hey, didn't know you have Italian and Polish roots :
wonderful people.Look, America is the immigrants that made it what it is.
