Or any country for that matter.

I saw this meme online and it made so much sense. It said...

The Definition of Insane Stupidity

Fleeing the failed, third world $hithole you lived in, only to demand that the country you fled to change their social and economic structure to become like the failed, third world $hithole you fled from!

Maybe 40 years too late, but I'm starting to think Neil Diamond was trying to warn us......

"Everywhere around the world, they're coming to America"

Yes they are Neil, yes they are......

Keep in mind that an immigrant is just someone that used to be somewhere else.

Just sayin' that you can't lump all immigrants. Not that you were though.

If I was an immigrant and I ended up in Louisiana, I would not be happy.

Remember all these immigrants are undercutting Americans on what a true wage should be. This includes the H1B1 visa clowns who have gutted most tech departments at companies all over the USA. Things are bad these days. People don't even know how fraudulent things are. We have had so much immigration since 9/11 that it is a shame. The average American is getting shafted in every single way and most don't even know it.

I could never figure out why most Italians settled in the northeast when they came to this country (New York, Philly, etc).

When my family came at the turn of the twentieth century they chose New Orleans, I'm assuming because the Louisiana climate is a lot closer to Italy's climate than the northeast is.

That's my geography lesson for the day.

Boats docked at Ellis Island. (New York) Is that why the Arcadians (French Canadians) also settled in a humid English-speaking delta,because it's just like home?

My ancestor's boats didn't dock at Ellis Island.

And the Acadians probably settled in Louisiana for the same reason my ancestors did...because it's too damn cold up north.

If I was a soft Liberal like you, I would hate to wind up in M@ss. Although Boston is kind of nice. You'd never survive the South end. All posters on here know it.

Detox, you're nothing more than a loud mouthed Lib with a teenager's mind in an adult body.

Canosp brings up a good topic and you try to insult him.

You're so soft, hahaha.
